These usually offer a simulated pinball experience at a cheaper price point than the real deal… Read more. You can play virtual pinball on everything from your smartphone to your tablet to your laptop. But the best experience is, oddly enough, on an actual standup pinball machine with a giant screen replacing the mechanical guts.

One from Sony researchers takes the concept of a rumble pack to extremes: a controller mounted to a sort of baton, inside which is a weight that can be driven up and down by motors to change the center of gravity or simulate motion. In a VR simulation, a tabletop is covered in a variety of cubes and other shapes.

So we teamed up with Loyola University in Chicago and the best ophthalmologist, among the best in US. And very much VR has been like AI. So how does that work?

Take Chicago O’Hare International Airport: By 1975, O’Hare was the world’s busiest airport, handling 37 million passengers a year. Philippine Airlines is applying the technology to cabin crew training, which, unlike flight simulators, has evolved very little over the years. Most American airports were built between the 1950s and 1970s.

I think the seated motion simulators are pretty safe. It was a 6DOF simulation machine. Bob: Yeah, look, I think that there’s a lot of bad motion simulation out there in VR, which triggers motion sickness. If it’s not done well, it can actually exacerbate the simulator sickness that you get. It was wild.

It eliminates the need for expensive materials to practice on and can put students in an array of situations that cannot normally be simulated for training purposes.
