shift living in the digital age for now on behalf of the whole team thanks so much for watching. i'm secure in that of my work. and in the end it's a me your not a lot of the year and more we will send you that. are you familiar with this. when the smugglers would lie and say. what's your story. on what numbers of women especially of victims of violence. take part and send us
8:16 pm
your story we are trying in all ways to understand this new culture. for you are not a villa turn other years you want to become a citizen. in for migrants your platform for reliable information. virtual reality has been promising you and bigger adventures for years dream trips from the comfort of our homes. exciting fun. and thrills going to war but what is the reality of version reality i want to see if today. in twenty eighteen the global be our revenue was three point two billion euros

peanuts compared to gaming which made one hundred twenty billion last year still we are technology is making giant strides then you had said new software new games but this stuff is only for hardcore gamers and couch potatoes right wrong you can also used to work up a sweat by boxing for example slip on the headset and go beyond boxing is perfect for me if i get a black eye here i don't get in trouble with my makeup artist. virtual reality boxing training. and b. are big fights. they can be just as hard as matches with real opponents but without running the risk of injury more and more sports are showing up in p.r. . at the v.a.r. institute of health and exercise scientists from san francisco state university are studying the health impact of the our sports they measure a range of physical functions and calculate how many calories per minute using
8:18 pm
a given game burns so far they tested over fifty of your applications with different headsets to determine their effects. on the treadmill with the v.o.r. headset can definitely get players working up a sweat and burning calories. just like the wii our music application electro knots where users can become d.j.'s. you can make your own music and how easy is it to forget your exercising when you're dancing. dancing at a virtual festival to my own music pretty sweet i don't need anyone else for that but the op times when i'd like to share the experience without us all too rare option b. are besides the headsets often clunky the cables get in the way and many of the graphics to look pixilated to really work the software needs to respond to my
8:19 pm
actions immediately and right now that's often aleck. an amusement park north of nora burke is offering b r bumper cars. on the. i went there for a test drive and to find out what technology goes into making the perfect be our experience. ok let's dive in in vietnam looks count resolution and image quality are crucial when it comes to graphics is field of vision the winds of the field the more intense the experience. another decisive factor is how well heeled real movements are reproduced. is really important because of how you move your head and whether going to matches your position and you in the virtual world can cause it's all. these bullshit sensors on used in optical tracking the sensors reflect infrared light in the dark which is picked up
8:20 pm
by cameras is just one of the tracking methods the institute is developing for the wii on the driver in car fitted with fourteen senses and they use this position is tracked by thirty two infrared cameras the aim is to minimize latency the delay between real life action unfit representation. oh. it has to feel good when my real movement has to be in sync with what i see if it isn't you get a kind of motion sickness or virtual reality sickness. you feel nauseous. developers are also working on more senses to the virtual reality experience like feeling when you taste and smell that would make the experience more authentic and of course multi-user ups and liven up the actual surroundings.
8:21 pm
i have to admit i was pretty terrified driving a blind but it was super funny really one of my best experiences and with no leg every movement was perfectly. without. but not this time. it's. how the brain reacts to what happens exactly when i move in virtual reality. direction for instance. experiences from the real. when the physics. becomes active. this is the part of our brain perceives. reality we only see the space.
8:22 pm
large part of our brain is dedicated to image processing. it is enough to rely on visuals alone to create a surround. everyone knows there's more to genuine experience. different inputs from our senses to create the whole reality. when it comes to brain studies with that when the. activity. around sixty percent of the experience the more it generates neural firing patterns. brain activation. trial the rats were placed on the spherical trap which meant they had to move and balance as a result of the rats brains showed similar neural representation of space in the virtual world we use a lot of sense to reproduce to navigate have a look. studies show that beyond needs to include. not
8:23 pm
just. your sound taste and touch and missing from the v.a.r. experience the illusion is weakened. even so the brain treats real life and simulation similar. patterns of how the brain responds are similar our brain will process fear in a similar way whether i'm in a real life or of. a similar psychological response. rate increases. conductivity changes. in the reward center is activated we can be scared own rewarded in. life. the porn industry is often quick to use new technologies and we are is no exception the point company in north america has registered over twenty million downloads from its range since twenty eight to the gaming platform steve also does
8:24 pm
a large part of its business with offerings but what is virtual six like a test reports system i'm sitting in a living room like i actually. feel as if i were actually inside the filter. like i'm part of it with. the girl sitting on me right now. she's right here you know here. could. be the next sexual revolution health clinics should we be getting with technology. futurologist and internet pioneer brian she sees a time when we will become so united with the tech that there will be a paradigm shift. this is very where people would prefer sex it referred
8:25 pm
certainly ratify were never. ratified your life. does not. he was underwhelmed by the experience. you are a part of the action and that's incredible this is a but then again you're also not something like you're moving to touch something with your eyes closed i see things but there's nothing there for you than this what's really missing is real life emotions. you just can't really feel it some developers of working hard to make the experience more real but so far it seems very odd doesn't come close but we are goggles are great when it comes to traveling the last time i went on vacation i explored my destination first with this model. strictly speaking it was a three hundred sixty degree panoramic view and not be our which is usually more interactive. the tourism industry has shown great interest in the technology for

operators in the u.s. state of nevada have tested really our travel advertising with success. slick on a p.r. headset and you can be off to faraway lands. you can instantly be in nevada it doesn't matter where you were before. there are even apps with which she could book the matching flights from the comfort of your beyond setting but she also. i sure do trip you know with amazing precisely because i was under water for. those who hesitate to travel can experience the world for. paris's john. park hosts an installation called wild in the ocean and it brings visitors even closer to the wild animals than african safari is without disturbing real animals in their natural habitats. new level i really want to use new technologies so that
8:27 pm
we can be teleported to be among the animals to be in the midst of this wildlife in the ocean with chimpanzees and be amazed that this is curiosity is a rationalist and they live by seeing and being then this is another potential application of beyond as it is dontcha bella's three hundred sixty degree and up tanks beulah's all around the german unesco world heritage sites what's that she will towards this column i can travel to various places virtually even interact with them that's an important feature directing that enhances the immersion in this virtual reality if i can interact a bit i've got something i can do and not just be a spectator. what are your thoughts on the are when is it amazing and when could you do without personally i couldn't get enough of the bumper cars but overall the technology still has a long way to go ahead says need to be made lyda the cables are
8:28 pm
a nuisance and the technology is still too expensive there are simple vyas as for your smartphone which cost only one euro but if you want something decent they had said alone costs one hundred ninety nine euros what do you think join our discussion on facebook and on our new you tube channel you also find explain as their information on the latest tech topics gadgets and my full report on the wii our bumper car take care and see you next week.
