4. What is Virtual Reality?
It's a computer-generated simulation
of a three-dimensional environment
that can be interacted with in a
seemingly real or physical way by a
person using special electronic
equipment, such as a headset with a
screen.
5. History Of Virtual Reality
Virtual reality (VR) originated in the
1960s with early experiments by Ivan
Sutherland. After decades of development,
the 2010s marked a turning point with the
release of Oculus Rift, sparking a
resurgence in VR technology. Today, VR
continues to advance, finding applications
in diverse fields beyond gaming.
6. Types Of Virtual Reality
1.Non-immersive VR: Limited immersion, often
using traditional screens.
2.Partially Immersive VR: More immersive with
devices like VR headsets and motion controllers.
3.Fully Immersive VR: Highest level of
immersion, blocking out the real world with headsets
and often including additional sensory feedback.
There are three main types of virtual reality (VR):
7. Devices used in Virtual Reality
Virtual Reality (VR) uses devices like headsets,
controllers, and sensors to create cool, lifelike
experiences. Some devices, like gloves and
vests, make it feel like you're touching things.
You need a powerful computer for some
headsets. AR glasses, like Microsoft HoloLens,
mix virtual and real stuff. It's all about making
amazing, interactive virtual worlds.
8. Applications of Virtual Reality
Virtual Reality (VR) is applied in
gaming, education for simulations and
training, healthcare for therapy and
surgery practice, architecture for virtual
walkthroughs, corporate training and
simulations, and spans industries like
tourism, research, art, and sports training.
9. Advantages of Virtual Reality
1.Realistic simulations enhance education
and training experiences.
2. Provides safe, controlled environments
for cost-effective and risk-free training.
3. Offers engaging and interactive gaming
and entertainment.
10. Disadvantages of Virtual Reality
1.High expenses limit widespread access to
quality VR equipment.
3.Over-reliance on VR can contribute to
a sense of isolation from the real world.
2.Prolonged use may lead to discomfort,
motion sickness, and eye strain.

6.Advantages & Disadvantages of
Augmented Reality
13. What is Augmented Reality
Augmented Reality (AR) overlays
digital information, such as graphics or
data, onto the real-world environment.
It enhances user experiences by
blending virtual elements with the
physical surroundings, often viewed
through devices like smartphones or
smart glasses.
14. History of Augmented Reality
Augmented Reality (AR) traces back to
Ivan Sutherland's "Sword of Damocles"
in the 1960s. Coined in the 1990s, AR
gained momentum with smartphone
apps in the 2000s and surged in
popularity with Pokémon GO in 2016,
evolving into a diverse technology with
applications across industries today.
15. Types Of Augmented Reality
Augmented Reality (AR) has two main types:
1.Marker-Based AR: using visual markers like
QR codes to trigger digital content.
2.Markerless AR: relying on device
sensors for dynamic overlays without
predefined markers.
16. Devices used in Augmented Reality
Augmented Reality (AR) is experienced
through devices like smartphones, tablets,
and smart glasses, utilizing their cameras
and sensors. Smart glasses, such as
Microsoft HoloLens and Google Glass.
These devices enable users to interact with
digital information seamlessly integrated
into their real-world surroundings.
17. Applications of Augmented Reality
Augmented Reality (AR) applications
are diverse, enhancing gaming with
overlays like Pokémon GO and
transforming education through
immersive learning simulations. In
healthcare, AR aids in surgery planning
and medical training, while navigation
apps use AR for real-time directions.
18. Advantages of Augmented Reality
1.Enhances user experiences by blending
digital content with the real world.
2.Facilitates immersive learning, training, and
interactive marketing.
3.Improves efficiency in industries
with real-time visual guidance and
information
19. Disadvantages of Augmented Reality
1.Faces technological limitations dependent
on device capabilities.
2.Involves high costs for application
development and device acquisition.
3.Raises privacy concerns related to data
collection and security.
