ABSTRACT

In real life, it is highly unlikely you’d get a chance to design and ride your own roller coaster, or fly a stunt plane, or engage in a sword fight with comic book villains. And unless you had a very large travel budget, you’d be hard-pressed to have the chance to tour a Hindu temple in India. And you’d need a magical time machine to be able to travel backwards in time to relive your earliest memories. But thanks to virtual reality (VR), you can experience all of these things simply by donning some special gear and stepping into a VR installation.
