'''Virtual Reality''' ('''VR''') is a computer-simulated artificial multisensory 3D environment that can mimic the properties and imagery of the physical world, be completely based in fantasy, or a mix of both. It involves technology that uses computer-generated environments to simulate a physical presence in a virtual world. The system uses position-tracking and responds to the user’s inputs. In VR, the senses are temporarily fooled into believing that the artificial environment is real. The goal of a true VR experience is to create [[presence]] - the feeling of physically being somewhere else, of being in another reality <ref name=”0”> Bierbaum, A.D. (2000).

Virtual Reality is an interactive and immersive medium that can be used to create unique experiences that are unattainable elsewhere. VR has the power to transform [[games]], [[films]] and other forms of media. Some enthusiasts call VR the "ultimate input/output device" or the "last medium" because any subsequent medium can be created within VR, using only software <ref name=”0”></ref> <ref name=”6”></ref>. | Virtual Reality is an interactive and immersive medium that can be used to create unique experiences that are unattainable elsewhere.
