Here’s the difference that good presentation makes. When I got stuck in SVRVIVE: The Deus Helix [Review: 4/10] a few weeks ago, the murky, dark environments, bland textures and lack of a hint system meant I quickly lost my patience. When I get stuck in Unearthed Inc: The Lost Temple from Glo Inc, though, the vibrant...
The brain is weird. All it takes is a little bit of visual, audio, and physical stimulation and for all intents and purposes we can be tricked into believing that we’re in an entirely different place. What’s even weirder is when you combine all of those stimulations into making the brain think it’s somewhere familiar...
Over the past three years Magic Leap have been one of the darlings of Augmented/Mixed reality. The Florida start-up was valued at $4.5 billion and attracted nearly $1.4 billion in funding from investors such as Google, Andreessen Horowitz and Alibaba.

The concept of rehabilitation is a fundamental part of the prison system, especially in the United States. Most criminals are, ideally, educated and rehabilitated before returning to society — assuming they don’t have a life sentence.

Painting in VR can be an amazingly freeing experience for an artist. You dance, and 3D art appears. But, if you only need to paint on a two-dimensional virtual wall, it doesn’t make sense to move your brush in three dimensions. You could try, but the brush would either go through the wall, or there’d...
Last month we created a list of the five Oculus Rift and HTC Vive games we wanted to see head over to PlayStation VR. Today, one fifth of our wishes came true.

Ticket marketplace StubHub has launched a new ‘Virtual View’ feature which will let users know exactly what the view from their seats will look like before buying tickets.
