Are You Ready for Virtual Reality?

Introduction:

The reality, as we know, isn't all it's cracked up to be. Now we're about to see if virtual reality can live up to the hype. Virtual reality, the next big thing in tech, has been in development for years. I wrote a story in the 1990s about a psychotherapist using virtual reality headsets to help patients overcome their fear of heights by simulating a ride to the top of the Golden Gate Bridge. 

New advances in technology have virtual reality devices starting to make their  way into the hands of consumers. Early reviewers love the immersive environments that modern computing power makes possible, and they range from very simple and inexpensive to high-end and power-packed.
