what is virtual reality?
Have you ever wondered how it feels like to be in space
Or a time or place you have never been before?
 With vr virtually anything is possible
Vr replaces ur world with digital content

 Vr is an immersive technology that creates a stimulated


environment using a combination of hardware and software

or experiencing things through our computers that don’t


really exist.

WORKING
User Interface: The user wears a VR headset that typically consists of a display, lenses, and
sometimes sensors. This headset is worn on the head to provide a visual and sometimes
audio experience.

Display: The display inside the VR headset presents a separate image to each eye, creating
a stereoscopic 3D effect. This gives the illusion of depth and enhances immersion.

Lenses: Lenses in the headset help in focusing the images and adjusting the field of view to
match the human eye's natural perception.

Sensors: Various sensors like accelerometers, gyroscopes, and sometimes external cameras
are used to track the user's head movements and position in real-time. This tracking data
is crucial for adjusting the displayed scene based on the user's movements.
Processor: A powerful computer or a dedicated system-on-chip (SoC) processes the data from
the sensors and renders the 3D virtual environment in real-time. This involves complex graphics
rendering and optimization.

Content: VR experiences are created using specialized software that generates 3D environments,
objects, and interactive elements. This content can range from games and simulations to
educational and training applications.

Interaction Devices: Users can interact with the virtual environment using various input devices
such as handheld controllers, haptic gloves, or even full-body motion capture suits. These
devices allow users to manipulate objects, navigate the virtual space, and trigger actions.

Audio System: To enhance immersion, VR often includes spatial audio systems that produce
sound based on the user's head orientation and position. This gives a sense of depth and
directionality to sounds within the virtual world.
Rendering: The processor renders the 3D virtual environment in real-time by calculating
the perspective, lighting, shadows, and textures for each frame. This requires significant
computational power to maintain smooth and responsive visuals.

Head Tracking: The sensor data helps in adjusting the scene in real-time according to the
user's head movements. This tracking ensures that the user's view of the virtual world
updates as they move their head, making the experience feel more natural.

Motion Reproduction: Some VR setups include peripherals like motion platforms or


treadmills that simulate physical movement, enhancing the sense of presence within the
virtual world.
How does it work
The main components sensors, lenses, and a strap to keep the headset in place.

Firstly, two lenses are present in most headsets, which can often be adjusted to the
right focal length. The incoming images are split into two, one for each stereoscopic
lens. The images can move left to right giving you the 3-dimensional effect.

Secondly, immersive audio also plays an important role in mimicking the real world in
the virtual version. The VR content adds depth to the sound you hear, improving the
experience

Lastly, controllers can often be used when playing VR games. These enable you to pick
up, move and drop objects in the virtual world. They also come in handy in action
games. There is a set field of view, specific to each headset that lets you roam around in
VR. This is possible due to several sensors present in the heads et..

Conclusion
 Visualisation of complicated, large data is helpful of
understanding and analysis by VR.

 VR offers us a new way to interact with the computer.

 VR enables us to experience the virtual world that is


impossible in real world

 VR is changing our life eventually VR will become a part of


our life
