VR - Virtual Reality

Virtual reality refers to a computer-generated environment with scenes and objects that appear to be real, which can be experienced with the help of specific software and hardware. By using a VR headset and corresponding controllers, users are given the feeling of being immersed in a virtual world by using high-resolution displays, 360° or 3D content, and auditory and haptic features. Possible VR applications can be found in the leisure sector with single and multi-player games, in the professional context, e.g. in training courses and simulations or in collaborative teamwork applications, and in the education sector.
