What is Virtual Reality (VR)?

Virtual reality (VR) is a simulated virtual experience that is quite different from the real world. Today, virtual reality can be applied via entertainment (such as video games), educational programs (such as medical or military training), and many other disciplines. Typically, VR takes two main forms: immersive VR, and text-based network VR (also called cyberspace). Currently, VR headsets are one of the most common methods of engaging in VR, allowing users to explore realistic images, sounds, and lifelike scenarios that simulate a user's physical presence in a specific environment.
