Or we can put on device on our head (a head-mounted display or HMD) that completely occludes us from the real world allowing us to enter a completely simulated environment which we can walk around and interact in because the computer is sensing our physical actions: this is Virtual Reality or VR. Virtual humans are getting more and more real.
