'''Virtual Reality''' or '''VR''' is a computer-simulated artificial world that can mimic the physical features of the environments in real life and in fantasy. In VR, all of our senses are fooled, temporarily, into believing that this artificial environment is real. VR is able to create [[Presence]], the feeling of being in somewhere else, in a new reality.

Virtual Reality is an interactive and immersive medium that can be utilized 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.
