Brief intro to VR | |
quick explanation of Vr and how it works | |
(Virtual Reality is the use of computer technology to create a simulated environment.) | |
Hit on some non entertainment uses for VR (used in medicine to help simulate the patients anatomy for diagnosis purposes, | |
looking at using it to recreate crime scenes for juries to see in trials, virtual museums, and military training) | |
Start to talk about how it's being used in the entertainment world | |
- Six Flags Maryland has synced up one of their most popular rides with VR headsets to simulate you flying around Metropolis | |
with Superman. | |
- Airline companies are starting to look into VR to help improve the flier's experience. Streaming Netflix, giving the appearance | |
of a larger cabin, to help people with claustrophobia, and potentially syncing them up with cameras in the hull to show what | |
you would be seeing around you if the hull was made of glass. | |
- IMAX has partnered with Sweedish VR company Starbreeze to start opening VR theaters, where the movie will be a fully immersive | |
experience. | |
- The Void opened up in Utah where it crosses VR with the concept of gaming for a fully immersive experience where people can feel | |
like they are in the favorite game. (Talk about offerings of the Void) | |
