Dummy's guide to Virtual Reality - Top 5 basic things you should know about VR
The Top 5 things every beginner should know about virtual reality.
VR is going mainstream and you should know the very basics if you don't want to seem like a dummy.
Virtual reality
Virtual reality is a computer-generated simulation that can be interacted with physically. It has been an idea since the 1950s but gained popularity in the 1980s and 90s. There are three types of VR systems - non-immersive desktop systems, semi-immersive projection systems, and fully immersive head-mounted display systems. VR has applications in architecture, military, and healthcare. However, it is limited by high costs and space requirements for equipment such as head-mounted displays.
Virtual Reality for Brands
Virtual reality has emerged as an effective and popular marketing opportunity for brands eager to form an intimate connection with their audience. Learn a little bit more about the innovative new technology.
The rise of VR & AR era. Why this time is different?
When Facebook bought virtual reality company Oculus in early 2014, virtual reality blew up. While game and movie studios began reimagining the future, others looked back at the "old days" of VR — a loosely remembered period in the 1990s when gloves and goggles were super cool and everyone was going to get high on 3D graphics.
Computer enthusiasts and science fiction writers have dreamed about VR for decades. But earlier attempts to develop it, especially in the 1990s, were disappointing. It turns out the technology wasn’t ready yet. What’s happening now — because of Moore’s Law, and also the rapid improvement of processors, screens, and accelerometers, driven by the smartphone boom — is that VR is finally ready to go mainstream. Now, we’re in the midst of a virtual reality revolution.
So the question I want to pose here – is this time different?
Are we going to this future or it’s only media hype?
Consumer Virtual Reality: State of the Market
This report examines the emerging market for consumer virtual reality (VR). It forecasts that nearly 57 million VR devices will be purchased between 2014-2018, with total active users reaching 47.6 million by 2018. The hardware market is currently led by Oculus VR, with Samsung, Microsoft, and Sony pursuing the technology. The report also explores the sectors and applications that will adopt VR, including virtual worlds, mirror worlds that recreate real places, and new forms of social interaction and content creation. Overall, the VR market is estimated to grow to $16.2 billion in revenue by 2018, representing a compound annual growth rate of 125% as the technology advances and its uses expand.
Virtual Reality Journalism
Virtual reality is journalism’s next frontier. While the goal of sharing stories has remained the same for journalists, the advancement of technology is allowing them to do so in new ways. One of the most exciting prospects is virtual reality, which allows users to immerse themselves in locations they could previously only interact with in 2-D.
VR has the potential to become an impactful storytelling tool, much like motion pictures did many years ago.
Will virtual reality continue to increase its impact on the news industry as it becomes more affordable for newsrooms to produce?

Game On! The New Reality of Virtual Reality at the GDC16
Kaleidoscope Unity Developers Brendan Dickinson and Arthur Littlefield traveled to San Francisco last month to see what's new at the 2016 Game Developers Conference (#GDC16), the world’s largest and longest-running professionals-only game industry event. Here's their summary of what's new in VR and the game development industry.
virtual reality
This document provides an overview of virtual reality (VR), including its history, types, hardware components, and applications. It begins with definitions of VR and discusses early VR simulations from the 1950s-1980s. The types of VR covered are immersive, non-immersive, and semi-immersive. Hardware components include displays, sensors, and computers. Applications highlighted are education/training simulations, movies, and video games. The future of VR is predicted to include more immersive entertainment experiences using physical movement.
Virtual reality.pptx
Virtual reality (VR) is a simulated experience that employs pose tracking and 3D near-eye displays to give the user an immersive feel of a virtual world. Applications of virtual reality include entertainment (particularly video games), education (such as medical or military training) and business (such as virtual meetings). Other distinct types of VR-style technology include augmented reality and mixed reality, sometimes referred to as extended reality or XR, although definitions are currently changing due to the nascence of the industry. urrently, standard virtual reality systems use either virtual reality headsets or multi-projected environments to generate realistic images, sounds and other sensations that simulate a user's physical presence in a virtual environment. A person using virtual reality equipment is able to look around the artificial world, move around in it, and interact with virtual features or items. The effect is commonly created by VR headsets consisting of a head-mounted display with a small screen in front of the eyes, but can also be created through specially designed rooms with multiple large screens. Virtual reality typically incorporates auditory and video feedback, but may also allow other types of sensory and force feedback through haptic technology. "Virtual" has had the meaning of "being something in essence or effect, though not actually or in fact" since the mid-1400s.[2] The term "virtual" has been used in the computer sense of "not physically existing but made to appear by software" since 1959.[2]
In 1938, French avant-garde playwright Antonin Artaud described the illusory nature of characters and objects in the theatre as "la réalité virtuelle" in a collection of essays, Le Théâtre et son double. The English translation of this book, published in 1958 as The Theater and its Double,[3] is the earliest published use of the term "virtual reality". The term "artificial reality", coined by Myron Krueger, has been in use since the 1970s. The term "virtual reality" was first used in a science fiction context in The Judas Mandala, a 1982 novel by Damien Broderick.
Widespread adoption of the term "virtual reality" in the popular media is attributed to Jaron Lanier, who in the late 1980s designed some of the first business-grade virtual reality hardware under his firm VPL Research, and the 1992 film Lawnmower Man, which features use of virtual reality systems.[4] One method by which virtual reality can be realized is simulation-based virtual reality. Driving simulators, for example, give the driver on board the impression of actually driving an actual vehicle by predicting vehicular motion caused by driver input and feeding back corresponding visual, motion and audio cues to the driver.
With avatar image-based virtual reality, people can join the virtual environment in the form of real video as well as an avatar. One can participate in the 3D distributed virtual environment as form of either a conventional avatar.

CAKE: Sharing Slices of Confidential Data on Blockchain
Presented at the CAiSE 2024 Forum, Intelligent Information Systems, June 6th, Limassol, Cyprus.
Synopsis: Cooperative information systems typically involve various entities in a collaborative process within a distributed environment. Blockchain technology offers a mechanism for automating such processes, even when only partial trust exists among participants. The data stored on the blockchain is replicated across all nodes in the network, ensuring accessibility to all participants. While this aspect facilitates traceability, integrity, and persistence, it poses challenges for adopting public blockchains in enterprise settings due to confidentiality issues. In this paper, we present a software tool named Control Access via Key Encryption (CAKE), designed to ensure data confidentiality in scenarios involving public blockchains. After outlining its core components and functionalities, we showcase the application of CAKE in the context of a real-world cyber-security project within the logistics domain.
