Timeline
1974
The first virtual reality headset, developed in 1974, was a heavy prototype. Using liquid crystal displays (LCD), it offered very limited resolution, making the images pixelated and blurry. However, this device laid the foundation for modern VR by allowing users to interact with a simple virtual environment, often focused on basic video games.
1994
20 years later, in 1994, a new headset appeared. Unlike the 1974 model, it offered improved resolution, allowing for sharper graphics and more precise details. Its more comfortable design facilitated prolonged use. However, its high cost limited access, and exploration in 3D environments remained simple and limited.
2024
In 2024, virtual reality headsets saw significant advances. Lightweight and equipped with high-definition OLED screens, they offered sharp images and vibrant colors. Users could explore immersive virtual worlds, play interactive games, and attend live events in virtual environments. This technology truly popularized virtual reality, making immersive experiences accessible to the general public.
2048
The 2048 headset marked a revolution by offering total immersion in ultra-realistic virtual worlds. Thanks to advanced sensors and a direct connection to the nervous system, users physically and emotionally felt their virtual environment. This innovation redefined the human experience by blurring the line between virtual and real.
2084
Designed to be even lighter and more comfortable, the 2084 headset incorporated innovative materials and weight reduction technologies. This model offered advanced features such as artificial intelligence integration to personalize the user experience. With extended battery life and ergonomic design, it was perfect for long virtual reality sessions.
2124
The 2124 headset represents the pinnacle of VR technology. Lightweight and extremely comfortable to wear, it allows total immersion in virtual worlds indistinguishable from reality. Thanks to advanced neural simulation technologies, users can explore complex universes and interact with ultra-realistic artificial intelligences capable of learning and evolving in real-time.
