  • How the Oculus Rift Works by Bernadette Johnson
    How the Oculus Rift Works by Bernadette Johnson Browse the article How the Oculus Rift Works Introduction to How the Oculus Rift Works Virtual reality (VR) has not only been the stuff of science fiction novels and movies for decades, but it's also been an actual thing -- sort of. The first VR headsets were produced in the 1960s. At the time, the technology took up a lot of room and cost massive amounts of money. In the late 1980s to 1990s, VR became accessible to general public in arcades and other amusement venues via heavy headsets and controllers used to play rather simple games -- such as swinging a pretend sword at virtual foes, with as much accuracy as the era's computing systems could muster. The head tracking was slow, the field of vision was narrow and the graphics were low-resolution by modern standards. The experience often induced headaches and motion sickness, and it wasn't all that immersive. Still, it was a step forward in gaming and was bound to get better, but it didn't catch on at the time and the industry fizzled. The necessary technology just wasn't out yet to make it compelling to the masses. The Oculus Rift in use during E3 in Los Angeles, Calif. in June 2013. © GUS RUELAS/Reuters/Corbis High-end VR headsets with better resolution and response time have been developed since then, but they've remained prohibitively expensive for the home user and still tend to inhabit places like government and corporate research and training facilities.

Given our talented students and dedicated faculty, I’m confident in our plans. But I’m thinking a lot about what connects vision to reality. One great advantage that we have in contributing our vision of the future is that we’re operating in an environment that continually strives for open collaboration and shares a mission of innovation at the service of society. We have a long history of Thank you for forming partnerships — within the college and broader community, as well as with government and industry — that create high-impact technologies and advance mean- ingful solutions to the most challenging of problems. your critical role By tradition, engineering and professional schools have been broadly connected to the outside world. But as we go forward, we also need to partner with parts of in all we continue the university that traditionally have not relied on close relationships with industry or outside organizations. For example, in augmented reality/virtual reality (AR/VR), to build together. we’re currently developing a wonderful partnership with the faculty in Theater, Dance and Performance Studies; Art Practice; and the Center for New Media. They see that the future of dance, performance, music, sports — and indeed the future of how we teach, the future of education — is going to be transformed by AR/VR devices.
