ross, the imagination of a lot of people will have to keep monitoring those bloods, indeed, journalist andrea sports reporting from loc as we appreciate it. thank you. and that's the latest on dw news. stay tuned for shift marietta evans team from me and the entire news team in berlin. thanks for the company. the question about life, the universe and every thing, sir. well, then, given here's the answer to almost everything. we're documentary series with whoever raising the ground to break these questions after life. dumber in our city,

saving questions for the present future and hands filled with the ideas. so get ready for the brain update. 40 to the intro to almost everything. start september 10th on dw safari, which are a flight in a hot air balloon. we can travel around the world by a virtual reality. it's better for the environment and affordable, but just how fun i'll be on trips. i will topic on shift the the ideas sounds great. just pop on the headset and off you go to any place in the world or even to this some planets. beatrice maybe in each product for now, but much of occasion is on the rise. the trouble of market is forecast to explode

from over 4500000000. yours to 5 times that figure by 2027. about once this of peoples serve it in gemini, think the future of travel lies in the mets of us. and even one 4th of respondents on the 35th, we address a viable possibility. but what's already possible today? i guess we all travel a try with apparel gliding over the himalayas, loving and sweetened all smoking and mexico b. r can take us anywhere. and just a few clicks you'll wished away from your couch to some far away destination. travel agencies promote chill vacation vide without the c o 2 emissions, all the high cost. you can buy your own interactive travel experience with this with 10 euros in the app store. so i'm not even free of charge. the agencies offer

them to promote the destinations and attractions the technology can help you plan a trip. is a room big enough. how far away is the beach? oh, you can even go on the whole trip from the comfort of your home. and most of the experience, you need a good be. i have set the models with no display, you did use a smartphone instead. cheap ones go for about 100 year old headsets with a built in display are bit more expensive. metal costs, it's a real hit. it has a price like a $450.00 euro, but that's still a lot cheaper than going on a real trip. the that's crunch some numbers, say actually i from germany to them and went to a round trip ticket to my costs $850.00 euro in the process. more than $3.00 tons of c o 2. i'm gonna just put the problem on the approximately 24000 kilometers of

flight. the may be a great alternative for people who are unable to travel to places because of physical restrictions. but for now, virtual traveling con, quite compete with taking real vacation headsets con, stimulate the sense of taste, smell of feel, but they have to the best available for consumer use. now, the traveling does away with and you sense of like big crowds, switching and lines and jet black. and you might try a few daring activities you would be comfortable with in real life to start taking off and hot out. but doing all whitewater rafting, i noticed that the pipe built into different wells, the more realistic the experience felt. ex, that's called this emotion. but what happens in our brains when images and sounds he has to create a virtual reality experience across upon said,

mind st. information that yeah, well just like stimuli in the real world and that can take a real emotion. but the effectiveness depends on a few of effect us. how exciting is the story? how sophisticated is the technology, high resolution images and the good refresh rate and show images on chopping or pick sedated function and to get from the university of handbook is convinced that great the i experience the past mostly on the hardware used. he's a v, a expert researching human computer interaction, and he studies how real the experience of seem to up and down spite displaced even for us. all good we have to display is in front of the users eyes, which is the data is transmitted by have the optic nerve back to the visual cortex logics. and from there, depending on whether they recognize or want to grasp the objects with this information, it's spread across the brain by a neuron. so no, we're not invited to speak in this part of the words, images and noises from the virtual world are processed. similarly to information in real life,

we collect most of our information using our eyes. and our visual perception also stimulates our other senses. that's good news for be our users, because they may only be seeing images yet they taking the virtual world like real experiences. and easily accessed the slices, basically almost the same thing happens as in real life and we collect information using our sensors. i know if i'm, except in a virtual world shown on the computer display 20. and we're here, the 3, the sound and process, the information almost the same way is in reality, it defies each person. first is this virtual worlds differently. and it depends on the v. r is quality to the users, can feel emotions like joy or spirit. just like in real life. it's similar to watching scary movie or reading a thrilling story. or has one advantage. you're immersed in the sites and sounds of a virtual world, making it more real. if i could be the i,

it's on a lip and how real and experience seems largely depends on the technology you use. and the way the virtual world is displayed. want to buy it is to all. but as soon as you think you're really in that world, then you feel present and then you kind of fool your brain, but i'll skip 6. metro is understand how realistic the are skills depends on many factors. even minor hiccups like a bad internet connection can spoil the illusion and your experience. for now, users are aware that they are in a virtual world from wearing a headset that makes it hard to completely so no reality. but that may change in the future is a new model to see the of course, and these headsets are still pretty big and heavy and rather clunky, failed. it's like wearing heavy skiing, all those stuff and also so we see the next generation of these devices shrinking in size. i know many more like sunglasses, for instance, it's flexible. i mean,

if you want to try and have a right now, you need to be a headset, a path sunglasses won't cut it, but you can jump back in time to the past and this city is like london. what a pest of jenna and this guy, the 2 visits this can go back in time right for this standing. but you need a versatile team to make the a was as realistic as possible. i met with historians 3 the autism and the intimate was in cologne. to take a trip to the 20th century through virtual reality time, right brings the past to life. the team use this boom, click sound recordings and photos to rebuild the world. the way it used to be, how exactly did the buildings and vehicles look the the research department a time i've compiles information to create a city map, 3 d or does things a map the contract, the virtual world details are accurately simulated in b r. but what's more important than the buildings are the animated figures,

the more realistic they look, the better the experience. so the $103.00 developers conduct meticulous research. what did people where back then? how about bed with a who was out in about to make them look as realistic as possible, the animated figures close or recreate it using patterns. and the people themselves are designed with great care sleeping this house. how does the prism look like a short here long here now, how long is there news? is that here like this or like that and so on. and so right that, and let me put that all together fun and animator brings the finished reading triggers to life and use of the motion capture through to record his movements to ask anybody else we calibrate it to calibrate the suit. he uses markers that matt has bodies position and orientation. then his physical movements animate the figures digital motions

it takes the 20 person team about 3 months to create one of the historical worlds. and these worlds even draw in international visitors. places like random birth date are known across the globe to the story surrounding them aren't always defining points in history like the end of world war 2 or the fall of the berlin wall appealed to a broad, international audience. time travel is canal immerse themselves and this history and sometimes even directly compared to then and now on the truck for time can help us better understand how life used to be because the travelers become part of the action. yeah. can replace a real trip help or pass a one or provide a whole new experience altogether, like in this to us through the german capital. this is customer plots and berlin

today. and in 1920 and this guided tour visitors go back in time. right. but they are. the pilot historian talks about how berliners used to live. she shows them germany's 1st traffic light here, visitors get to step into historical berlin on a virtual trip there. sure to remember you can take virtual visits to ancient cultural sites to an experience growing and it's golden age, or toward the same as fallback. template complex and living on all things to be are what are they for going on trips use in school or at a university? good be our technology enables users to take part in advance, creating a unique experience. they won't forget the art technology helps people learn visual leave. users can explore historical settings, for instance,

making history more lies and attends of all. studies have shown that students who use virtual, an ottoman in reality, take greater interest in learning. they perform better academically than other studying with conventional methods that we are learning. market is forecast of growth from 6000000000 euros in 2021 to 32000000000 in 2026. we are brought into horizons. museums like the moment in new york or the rights museum and amsterdam have free vi our tours. you can also take a virtual visit to the state on museum and frank. first, it's one of germany's oldest museums. the collection has been constantly changing since 1816. using the v r headset, you can watch the art and the museum itself change throughout time. i think this sounds quite exciting, which already of a so many possibilities. how is this instance our travel plans?

so this one is for this put in skeleton, told us i do think we are, has the potential to change tourism and because it's, but i don't really think it will really excites traveling altogether to movies. but it gives you the opportunity to plan trips friends to advise if i like. is this the right hotel for me? let's be so i want to go to that restaurant of the whole end of the team. and i think the aren't gives us a thrilling opportunity to have these experiences have been advanced or to preserve done by visiting exciting places. again, virtually it's fun to watch. a lot on chunk of the travel could become a good alternative to conventional travel. also to help protect the climate. what do you think? are you going to keep packing your bags or what a headset suffice that us? no, that's it for me today. see you next time and 5 for now. the don't catch on this. i need to speak english, come on,

is known as economy. we 2 official languages that is french of english somehow. so this is right, just some people. it's not the people, it's the institution. french system is more dominant. but what language becomes a tool for segregation? you have to put your face, begin regions to forget this opportunity, just maintaining our identity because you'll be assumptive of 50 to 77 percent dw work. the new will tell you happy the box was story. we have a getting a visa is more difficult than finding gold hosted to use the sales force and for the future in the stories and issues that are being discussed across the country. news africa. in 60 minutes on the w. i just got

the this week on the 77 percent street debate. i will say that the french speaking system in come of room is because language becomes a 2 pacific issue and that's why it is appropriate. it kind of make you feel like, oh so it is by the while using thing is just on one side. honestly. when i a french i don't use the language. when i yes, special ed comes, my mind is run that genocide be. do i new bill? if i also think about english, i.
