Applications of VR


STIMULATOR
There are many kinds of stimulators such as airplane stimulator, ship stimulator and car stimulator which are the same as the real and much safer to practice on.

GAMING
VR has changed the face of gaming, now gamers can play being an actual graphic character in the game.

EDUCATION
VR offers very different kinds of experience than those students normally encounter in school. Students can actually experience what they learn which would make their learning effective.

MEDICAL
Medical applications for virtual reality (VR) are just beginning to emerge. These include VR surgical simulators, telepresence surgery, complex medical database visualization, and rehabilitation. The VR surgical simulator is a stylized recreation of the human abdomen with several essential organs, a person can learn anatomy from a new perspective by ‘flying’ inside and around the organs, or can practice surgical procedures with a scalpel and clamps.

CASE STUDY: Oculus VR

As a start-up growing at hyper speed, Oculus VR recognized it was at risk of losing its inherent cultural traits: a closely knit team of equal intellectuals, where constant chatter and close proximity kept ideas flowing and colliding constantly, sometimes literally sticking to walls, as new prototypes spilled continuously out of 3D printers. And all of this happened while a telepresence robot digitally connected one Oculus engineer working in Dallas to team members in California. Their existing space was not working for them. Furnished with rigid, linear benching, conversations were constrained, conducted standing up, or leaning over others. Product Lead Joe Chen was frustrated that it didn’t really foster the right kind of interaction; “accidental collaborations” that happen spontaneously were too infrequent. There weren’t enough spots for quiet conversations, either. He wanted to enhance the connectivity and impromptu discussions that are inherent to the company’s success. They also...

INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT VR

Travel companies are using virtual reality to allow customers to visit places and determine if they wish to visit in real life. Although virtual reality can be used for gaming, it is also becoming popular for other purposes such as allowing a person to feel as if they are in a virtual reality documentary. Virtual reality is being used in health care. It allows medical students to practice dangerous procedures and gain experience without actually operating on a human. It can also help surgeons determine the best point of entry for surgeries. Scientists with NASA can use virtual reality to enable robot arms in space to perform gestures that are being done on earth with an operator. Militaries are now using virtual reality to train soldiers in ways that will help better prepare them when they are actually deployed in combat. Oculus VR is a company that launched a Kickstarter project to release virtual reality goggles in the 2010s. Their goggles brought a lot of interest to virtua...
