Long the stuff of science fiction and film, Virtual Reality (VR) has portrayed an idealized world where users could be inserted into other worlds. Despite this, that which was once limited to the realm of fiction is now a tangible reality. We will now turn our attention to the evolution of the technology behind VR, tracking its journey from fiction to fact and looking at its present-and future-applications.
Early Beginnings:
The roots of virtual reality can actually be traced back to the middle of the 20th century. From as early as the 1950s there were experiments with immersive technologies. But virtual reality technology didn’t start to gain ground until the end of the 20th and beginning of the 21st centuries. In the early days of VR, systems like Virtuality arcade of 1990’s were able to offer somewhat immersive experiences for a few people but they were high-cost and low-utility eyewear products.
The Rise of Modern VR:
The modern round of virtual reality kicked off in earnest with the launch of Oculus Rift in 2012. Developed by Palmer Luckey and later bought by Facebook, the Oculus Rift claimed to be able to give high-quality, immersive VR experiences within an affordable price range. The success of the Oculus Rift launch brought new public attention to virtual reality technology, causing a wave of innovation.
Since then, various kinds of VR goggles have been put on the market, such as HTC Vive, PlayStation VR and Valve Index, the ins and outs of their specialization differences. Developments in screen technology, the computer processing and acceleration of images for virtual reality, as well as the ability of virtual reality goggles themselves to fit comfortably onto a person’s head or hang over their eyes at just the right distance from natural sight without adjustment have all combined to make what used to be nothing but dreams real.
VR Providing Patients with a Vision of Life After Surgery: Reports from Last Year
When renowned radiation oncologist George Starks underwent his first such virtual surgery to treat prostate cancer last month, all that he could say afterwards was “Wow.” In a separate procedure, a phantom slight had been removed from another patient’s side without his ever feeling either a warning or details of how it went over.
It referred to the National Electronic Monitor Research Institute, where 10 principal centers and survey stations in the United States have made the first virtual methods of paying a visit possible for sufferers with malignancies in virtually every human organ from early on in life. As if “going after real-life interpretation these days is just too hard for us” or is “too directly forbidden,” we also went through an old Western University office complex of which one unit had been turned into a Chinese-language newspaper enterprise which ran one such report 80 years ago, when all three of our founding directors hailed from Shanghai.

The Jinan Daily wrote: “The nation’s first surgeons with a sense of touch have arrived.”
Looking forward, virtual reality’s development trend points in every direction–for instance healthcare and education as well even further afield indeed into entertainment more generally across entire industries. When we are on some far distant star or giving much-needed experience material to our medical students or making ultimate breakthrough in music by refused performers-to do music no more before live audiences but instead for ever aftertable here online no one will know who comes forward and really innovates what tomorrow’s world will turn out to be like.
Indeed it might even be another type of Charles Schwarz in all manner: For not only just fundamentally new kinds seem conceivable,but also stealthy approaches to better exploit old equipment are surely waiting to see the light of day.

The development of virtual reality technology has come a long way from the concept of science fiction to a cognitive application. VR is changing how we experience and interact with this world. From Video gaming and Entertainment to healthcare, education.–in all aspects that people pursue and benefit from every day of their lives As technology advances and becomes available for more people, there is no limit to how far the future can be explored in virtual reality.
