So what is Virtual Reality?

According to Wikipedia, Virtual Reality is defined as computer-generated simulation of a three-dimensional image or environment that can be interacted with in a seemingly real or physical way by a person using special electronic equipment, such as a helmet with a screen inside or gloves fitted with sensors.

Now Virtual Reality is an old technology. Engineers & Developers have been working on Virtual Reality technology since 1950s. But due to lack of advancement in mobile technology, Virtual Reality did not take off in the yesteryears. Times have changed now and the world had seen rapid growth in Virtual Reality field in the last couple of years. Companies like Facebook, Google, HTC and Sony have all invested heavily in the Virtual Reality platform. So before dividing deep into Virtual Reality programming students will first understand the basics of Virtual Reality technology and VR headsets.

Power of Virtual Reality

I came across Virtual Reality in 2013 afterI watched a video ofOculus Rift. Even though the Oculus Rift was in Prototyping phase during that time it looked like a promising product. A year later in 2014 Facebook purchased the Oculus Rift company for a whooping $2 billion and in the same year Google launched it own VR platform called the Google Cardboard which revolutionized the entire VR industry. Since then many company have tried building their own VR Headsets.

Virtual Reality was previously(and is still) used in flight simulations so that pilots can improve thenir flying skills. So instead of directly flying an actual airplane or fighter plane, amateur pilots can first try their hands on a Virtual Plane. But after the popularity of VR headsets; Virtual Reality has now expanded in the field of Military, Gaming, Healthcare, VR Shopping, YouTube videos, Virtual tours, Therapy and Space Exploration just to name a few.
