Conceptual and Perceptual Perspectives of Virtual Reality

Abstract

The present paper deals with a discussion on conceptual and perceptual perspectives of virtual reality which is very relevant topic in the present day scenario. Generally, the world of virtual reality is considered as a world of imagination or illusion which creates an artificial situation or environment that seems to be like reality, but not actual reality. But, today, the virtual reality is not only considered as a natural outcome of advanced computer technology, but also regarded by the users as a useful tool for different services in an acceptable and significant manner. In the field of systematic research on the virtual reality, we often observe that many philosophers in their recent trends try to create their interest on the topic and wish to open the door to explain how the epistemology and metaphysics are related to virtual reality, and aim to find out the bridge that will over-come the gap between conceptual and perceptual realms of virtual reality
