What if you may experience the weightlessness of drifting in
space, with out leaving the floor?
To attempt it out, I strapped on a virtual-truth (VR)
headset and headphones today (March 13) right here at the South by means of
Southwest Interactive convention. The demonstration offers humans a small taste
of weightlessness through placing them in a chair filled with hydraulics while
a VR headset transports them into the spaceship from the movie
"Interstellar," just because it enters a wormhole that induces 0
gravity.
to begin with, the digital-reality headset made me woozy,
and it got even worse after I turned my head too fast. however I quickly became
immersed inside the virtual environment, and the wooziness subsided.
a few minutes into the simulation, as we entered the
wormhole, a robotic narrator warned that we had been entering a zero-gravity
surroundings. The hydraulics in my chair changed their stress and lowered the
base of the chair, which did create a indistinct sensation of floating. Oddly,
the feeling was strongest in my legs and arms, however my inner organs still
felt like they were situation to standard old Earth gravity.
