Virtual reality: what is it ?

Virtual reality definition : Virtual reality (in English, Virtual Reality or VR) is a technology that allows you to dive a person into an artificial world created numerically. It should not be confused with augmented reality (see in this regard our file on augmented reality and its applications).

It can be a real world reproduction or a completely imaginary universe universe. Experience is both visual, auditory and, in some cases, haptic haptic with the production of an effects. When the person is equipped with adequate interfaces, such as gloves or clothes, they can then experience certain sensations related to touch or certain actions (blow, impact. )).

Virtual reality headsets

This immersion is made by means of a virtual reality headset which places a stereoscopic 3D display system on the nose nose, in front of the eyes eyes . Some models are equipped with sensors sensors that detect the movements movements of the head to allow the user to look around him. The images are then recalculated in real time to synchronize with the direction of the gaze.

Virtual reality rooms

There are also virtual reality rooms in which the images are projected on the walls, the floor and the ceiling with a system for capturing movements which is used to adjust the perspective according to the movements.

Virtual reality and its applications: video games, simulators ..

Virtual reality for the general public experienced a boom from 2015 with the arrival of headsets that are both more efficient and affordable. Google Google played the democratization card by offering a cardboard model called Carboarding which is used with a smartphone as a display system.

Several manufacturers including Samsung (Gear VR), HTC (HTC Vive), Sony (PlayStation VR) and Oculus Oculus (Oculus Rift Oculus Rift) have released helmets equipped with movement sensors mainly intended for video games and recreational applications. More expensive, they are connected to a computer or a game console.

Virtual reality also has many other applications: training with simulators, treatment of phobias phobias, simulation of surgical acts, architecture, archeology with the reconstruction of sites, virtual museum visits, etc.

Virtual reality is what ?

The term virtual reality includes a series of computer technologies which aim to immerse one or more people in a virtual environment created by software software . An environment that more or less faithfully reproduces a real decor.

The user accesses virtual decor through a virtual reality headset . In order for immersion to be total, virtual reality does not only use the view of the environment recreated by software.

Other senses such as smell smell (broadcasting of odors), hearing (noise emission) and touch can be stimulated.

Virtual reality is sometimes called VR (Virtual Reality), Reality simulated by computer or immersive multimedia. It is sometimes wrongly confused with augmented reality, which is based on a real environment with the addition of virtual elements (hence the term augmented reality, which in a way corresponds to an improvement in reality).

What is virtual reality ?

For the general public, virtual reality is very often associated with video games. You adjust your helmet, you put yourself in the shoes of a soldier who must overcome obstacles and kill as many enemies as possible. Some 3D musical clips and films are also based on RV. But the ends of computer simulated by computer are not only fun.

In the military field, this advanced technology is used for example to train plane pilots and paratroopers.

In the health field, it helps surgeons before intervention and helps treat certain patients with uncontrollable fear such as agoraphobia (fear of crowds), arachnophobia arachnophobia (fear of spiders) or the acrophobia acrophobia (fear of vacuum). Commercial applications are also multiplying.

Certain transport companies and insurance companies use virtual reality for advertising purposes to catapult the customer within their vehicles or to raise awareness about real dangers such as accidents on road accidents. RV also has its place in education, especially as part of virtual videoconferences, and in architecture to visit buildings before their construction construction .

How virtual reality works ?

The virtual reality headset has the heavy task of sending you to a virtual environment by making you believe that the scenes that occur there are indeed real. How does this accessory exercise its power of persuasion ? Largely thanks to its stereoscopic screen.

Your two eyes see the same images, but not quite in the same angle in order to obtain a depth effect. The parallax parallax also contributes to the depth. This technique consists in setting in motion certain objects more slowly to accentuate the distance which separates them from the user.

The realism realism of the movements is obtained with several sensors: the gyroscope gyroscope for the angles, the accelerometer for 3D movements, and the magnetometer magnetometer to detect the position of the position of the helmet. These sensors are grouped under the name “Head-Traking”. Audio side, immersion is ensured by spatialized sound which reproduces noises from different angles depending on the user’s position.
