If you’ve been living under a rock till now, a VR headset is a heads-up display that lets the user interact with simulated environments whilst experiencing a first-person view. VR headsets work by replacing your natural environment with a virtual environment which can range from a movie, a game, or even a pre-recorded 360-degree virtual environment that lets the user behave as if in the physical world. The purpose of VR headsets is to provide the viewer with an experience so realistic, that the user forgets they are actually wearing a headset.

If you’re still not sure about the purpose VR headsets serve, here are a few things you can do with a VR headset:

1. Gaming: You can play nextgeneration VR games and these include just about every genre imaginable - sports, first person shooters, battle games, survival games, or even puzzles! Don›t worry, Multiplayer is also an option!

2. Explore The World: Wish to explore the world, but cannot leave the house for some reason? Put on a VR headset and visit exotic locations with a 360-degree view, you can also click virtual photos using a camera so you’re not missing out on anything!

3. Live Events: Virtual Reality enables you to watch live events and shows even while lounging on your bed. It’ll feel like you›re there and the best part? No one will block your view!
