Unit 4 Living with technology
Project
What future development do you think VR will have
Fully immersive VR is on the cards for the future development of VR technology. There would be a revolutionary interface and a newer powerful computing platform. Programmers and developers would create a richly detailed virtual world with unlimited possibilities and scenarios. Then a powerful computer will be able to detect the user’s quick movements in real time and adjust the VR experience accordingly. The hardware would also be developed to keep up with the software, so head-mounted displays, sensory gloves, high-definition screens and stereo sound systems will all be linked to the computer system, thus fully immersing the user into the virtual world.
