Virtual reality takes these elements to the next level by creating an entirely computer-generated simulation of a different world. Using special equipment such as computers, sensors, headsets, and gloves, these immersive simulations can create almost any visual or location imaginable for the player. The distinctions between VR and AR are based on the equipment required and the experience itself:
