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...
