Everything that we cognize about our reality comes through our physical senses. In short, our entire reality is made up of a combination of sensory information and our brain trying to interpret that information. Therefore, if you can present your senses with made-up information, your perception of reality would also be affected in response. You would be presented with a glimpse of reality that isn’t really there, but can be perceived as real. Something we would refer to as a virtual reality.
A virtual environment should provide adeptness in real time- as the person explores his surroundings. The problems arise due to delays between the person’s actions and system latency which then disrupts his experience. In Augmented Reality (AR), the computer uses sensors and algorithms to determine the position and orientation of the camera. AR technology then renders the 3D graphics as they would appear from the viewpoint of the camera, overlaying the computer-generated images over a user’s view of the real-time events.
Benefits
There are many uses of VR which range from academic research to engineering, design, business, the arts and entertainment. Irrespective of usage, VR produces a set of data which can then develop new models, training methods, communication and interaction. In many ways the possibilities are endless. Virtual reality technology holds tremendous potential to change the future for a number of fields like medicine, business, architecture and manufacturing.
Applications
Medical professionals are using VR to heighten traditional therapy methods and find real-time location-based solutions for treatments of PTSD, anxiety and social disorders. Doctors are employing VR to train healthcare individuals in surgery, treat patients’ pains and even help paraplegics regain body movement. In business, a variety of industries are benefiting from VR. Carmakers are formulating safer vehicles, architects are designing stronger buildings and even travel agencies are using it to ease-out vacation planning.
Medical
Healthcare and dentistry students use VR to practice surgeries and procedures, allowing for a consequence free learning environment. Virtual patients can allow students to develop skills which can later be applied in the real world.
Mental Health
VR has become a key method for treating post-traumatic stress. Using VR exposure therapy, a person can re-enact a traumatic event.
Military
VR can put a trainee in a number of different situations, places and environments for flight simulations, battlefield simulations, medic training, vehicle simulation and virtual boot camp preparations. A key benefit for the use of VR in the military is the reduction in training costs.
Sports
It’s used as a training aid in many sports and to help measure athletic performance and analyze techniques. VR has also been used to enhance the viewer’s experience of a sporting event. Broadcasters are now streaming live games in virtual reality and preparing to one day sell “virtual tickets” to live games.
Education
Students are able to interact with each other and within a three dimensional environment. They can also be taken on virtual field trips: to museums, taking tours of the solar system and going back in time to different eras while simulating different environments.
Whether it is arduous, expensive or impractical to do something in reality, virtual reality is the answer. From novice fighter pilots to medical applications trainee surgeons, virtual reality allows us to afford virtual risks in order to gain real world experience. As the cost of virtual reality goes down you can expect more mainstream use cases, such as education or productivity applications. Virtual reality and augmented reality could change the way we humans interface with our digital technologies.
Examples of VR used by different industries
- Volvo XC 90 Luxury SUV, Volvo ran a huge campaign #volvoreality where they allowed the users to immerse themselves in a wonderful mountain drive all with the implementation of Virtual Reality.
- Matterport utilizes Virtual Reality and 3D involves all in one reality capture system with real estate tours in 4K resolution.
- King’s College Clinical Research use virtual reality for treating patients suffering from Bipolar Disorder.
HP VR Solutions
The HP Z4, supports Intel Xeon or Core X processors as well as dual extreme graphics. Now you can experience VR with new HP Windows Mixed Reality Headset. A new HP VR launch kit will be offered to accelerate VR development and optimize VR deployment for high-fidelity use-cases. Also, expanding its Device as a Service (DaaS) offering to include Virtual Reality solutions.
HP VR Services
VR is a time consuming process. To elevate this, HP is shares its VR Launch Kit for Unreal Engine, a suite of tools based on the Unreal Engine. HP states this kit can accelerate development and deployment of VR by determining optimal computer configurations, automating the optimization of 3D engineering assets for Unreal’s development environment with Datasmith, and turnkey common interactions including parts explosion and model cross-sections.
Future VR trend
In the near future VR with inside-out capabilities has the chance to become an ultimate entertainment and content-consuming medium. In future we’ll see a wide range of tools that enable people to create and publish VR content. We already have a few great tools like Medium, Tilt Brush, and MindShow available. Developers can create WebVR apps simply. Also a total sense immersive experience is about to arrive.
