[ Previous | Index | Next ]


VR is a powerful user interface technology

  • Information is important, as is choosing the best way to visualise it

  • VR enables the user to interact directly with information

  • VR can enable the user to see/experience things in new ways

  • Full 'presence' is not provided by current technology

  • A number of potentially serious physiological problems remain unsolved

  • VR does not have to be immersive to be useful
