Did you know?

Virtual reality has existed for longer than you probably think! Here’s five surprising facts about this ever-evolving technology.

1. The first VR headset was patented in the 1960’s and was named the ‘Telesphere Mask’ by inventor Morton Heilig.

2. VR isn’t all fun and games – the technology is now being used in healthcare to treat depression, anxiety and PTSD amongst other things.

3. The PlayStation VR headset developed by Sony engineers came about from an open-ended tinkering session without any executive direction.

4. Virtual Reality Travel is a thing. In 2015, Marriott boasted about its ability to transport clients from London to Maui in 90 seconds, thanks to Oculus.

5. No single person invented virtual reality. Instead, many people have contributed to the technology’s growth. Some of the names include Morton Heilig, Jaron Lanier, Douglas Engelbert, Ivan Sutherland and Myron Kreuger. Collaboration, prototyping and iteration have gone into the development of this versatile technology.
