The immersive experience
I spent a good portion of last Christmas morning riding roller coasters, dodging creatures, and climbing stone steps through the maze of a medieval castle. Thanks to my smartphone and a virtual reality headset, I was immersed in the experience — right from my parents’ living room. But augmented and virtual reality technology isn’t just for games anymore. It’s use is...
