Current technology
VR technology has expanded rapidly over the last 20 years, since the advancement of VR technology during the WWII. These days mainly car and aeronautics companies use VR technology. These companies primarily use this technology to test product designs and simulate user interaction. VR technology is also use for medical training and also used to help with patient recovery.
VR technology has evolved tremendously over the course of time since it’s predecessors. It’s used for manufacturing, urban design, training, games, therapy, and music.
o Games: began with the early-mid 1990s with a gaming device called Virtual Boy which was developed by Nintendo. Virtual OI-O developed the eyeglasses for the device, the Cybermaxx developed by Victormaxx and the VFX-1 developed by Forte Technologies. The Virtual Boy produced countless games which were mainly basic racing, flight and shooters.
o Manufacturing: used for new product prototype designs. Use of Stereolithography and 3D printing shows how computer graphic modeling can be applied to create physical parts of real objects used in naval, aerospace, and automotive industries.
o Urban design: used for urban regeneration and planning and transport projects. It began as software, which took design coordinate geometry, used by land surveyor and civil engineers and combined exact spatial information created automatically by the lines and curves that are shown on subdivision plats and land surveying plans.
o Training: used in a training perspective is to allow professionals to conduct training in a virtual environment where they can improve upon their skills without the consequence of failing the operation.
