| Sumario: | The article provides insights on virtual reality. It offers a description of some of the exhibits at the Copernicus Science Museum in Warsaw, Poland and their relation to virtual reality. The brain is compared with computers, whereby the brain deals only with electro-chemical reactions and the computer deals with binary bits. The Microsoft Kinect device is cited as an example in which gestures become a new vocabulary through which to communicate with computers. The author predicts that there will be broader and more diverse ways of rendering computer output or to capture computer input. |
