MAIN BODY OF THE ESSAY

The main idea of virtual reality had started in 1929 and since then there have been a number of developments that took place in this technology. A simple mechanical flight stimulator which was developed by Edward Link to train the pilots at stationary (Sherman R.W. Craig A.B. 2003). Which was the first step towards the technology virtual reality, then Morton Heilig in 1956 had created a multi-sensory simulator, it was a pre-recorded film in stereo and colour and also added with scent, wind, binaural sound, and vibration experiences which was called Sensorama (Sherman R.W.
