Discuss the meaning of 3D Virtual Reality

Virtual reality

"It is a simulation in which computer graphics is used to create a realistic-looking world, Moreover, the synthetic world is not static, but responds to the user's input (gesture, verbal command, etc)" (Coiffet 2003 P.2).

The above description suggests that virtual reality is interactive. The I's of virtual reality are said to be Interactive -Immersive -Immagination.

This concept was adapted from Burdea (1993)
