Now, innovators have transformed virtual reality experiences with low-latency software and upgraded hardware. Driving simulators are perhaps the best example of this. Tools like the Meta Quest 2 and Quest 3 are examples of fully immersive headsets. Instead, you use controllers to interact with a digital landscape.
