The Next Step to a Holodeck

The video explores the potential of virtual reality (VR) beyond gaming, highlighting its applications in fields like engineering and design. It discusses the use of VR to visualize 3D models and the concept of haptic feedback, which enhances user interaction by simulating touch through sound waves. The video also covers the advancements in creating tactile sensations using ultrasound and the challenges faced in integrating this technology into full VR simulations. The ultimate goal is to achieve a level of immersion similar to the holodeck from Star Trek.
