Virtual reality is now advancing so quickly that it seems quite reasonable to guess that the world inside V.R. could one day be indistinguishable from the world outside it.

The findings align with economic theories that emphasize path dependency and the long-term nature of knowledge-driven growth.

Virtual reality has changed the world in more ways than one. The concept first emerged in science fiction, so how has it ...

Frankly, I’d say the creativity of this subset of fiction is definitive proof we’re not living in a simulation, because a simulation would probably be more interesting. Naturally, video games are no ...

The first-ever, fully immersive virtual simulation training system for Soldiers is being fielded at Fort Bragg, N.C. The Dismounted Soldier Training System will be available for leaders to enhance ...

That’s Where Virtual Reality Can Help Mursion’s simulations use real actors in A.I.-generated scenarios–no bulky headset required. It could be the future of workplace learning.
