What is Virtual
Reality?
Virtual Reality or VR is a computer-generated environment where you’re
immersed in a virtual world.
VR is an experience that blends out our reality and takes us into a
computer-generated world either through specially made headsets,
goggles, glasses or even contact lenses.
VR is about to disrupt the ways we live, work, invest and collaborate
with each other.
Here are 15 industries Virtual Reality is about to shape our
world

Doctors, students and patients are all
going to be able to benefit from the uses of VR when it comes to
medical and healthcare including:
SURGERY &
PROCEDURES –
Doctors will navigate inside the human body to operate. E.g. Searching
for polyps, tumours, removing and replacing organs, opening valves etc…
THERAPY &
REHABILITATION –
To provide a safe 3D world for medical therapies i.e. PTSD, suicide,
smoking, drinking, anxiety, pain & stress management, depression,
fears and neuro recovery.
PHYSICAL
REHABILITATION –
This will bring a new line of therapy where a patient will be able to
visualise and retrain hand-to-eye coordination to rebuild brain
functions and regain control of limbs that have been paralysed.
TRAINING –
For lecturers and doctors to train their students and other doctors via
interactive workshops, seminars and procedures.
CONSULTATION –
To allow doctors to consult with their patients globally when either
the doctors are not physically available, or when the patients
contracts any contagious virus or disease or are unable to move.

environment. They’ll meet up with their loved ones on earth and travel

be interviewed live in a simulated environment from any part of the
world.

Boring education may just be a thing
in the past. With VR it is an exciting development which can help in a
couple of ways including:
ONLINE LECTURES –
To have lectures in simulated environments may help improve with memory
retention e.g. Virtual tours inside a body, cell, electronic chip and
so on…
OVERSEAS COURSES –
Imagine having a Monday lecture in Harvard and then a Wednesday lecture
in Cambridge… Yes, VR may open online courses throughout the world with
different universities.

help you. They’ll be able to answer your questions with a visual

More and more people are adapting to
better lifestyles and fitness programmes. VR might just bring on a new
level of time being immersed in the fitness world including:
PERSONAL TRAINING

able to attend group fitness, dance and training sessions with other

I’ve saved the best for last. And as I
mentioned, I’ll go into an illustrated version in the next article on
how VR will help with the trading and investing world.
In the meantime, here are the main points including:
ONLINE SEMINARS
& WORKSHOPS –
Trading is a universal activity. With VR we’ll be able to attend and
host online trading seminars and workshops with 360 degree videos and
slide shows.
FINANCIAL ADVISOR
CONSULTATIONS –
You’ll be able to meet with advisors to help choose your portfolio models,
strategies and asset allocation.
ATTEND AGMs –
You’ll be able to attend shareholder, crypto and other investing
related meetings anywhere in the world.
CUSTOMISE YOUR
SCREENS –
In the VR world you’ll be able to place as many screens as you want without
buying a physical screen e.g. one for Bloomberg, one for a trading
platform, one for your charting platform, one for your depth, one for
your portfolio and one for your trading data.
HELLO Z-AXIS –
In VR we’ll be able to analyse data on a new level apart from the
normal 2D world. We’ll be able to bring data and charts alive and
immerse in the chart patterns and indicators with a new vision and
depth.
SECURE TRADING –
Eventually there’ll be a more secure customer biometric and voice
recognition system with VR where we’ll be able to execute trades,
withdraw and deposit money all in one virtual world.
FINAL THOUGHTS!
Right now,
billions of people are stuck at home and looking at where the future is
going.
COVID-19 has been a real-life changer, but also has boosted the
technology for VR.
In fact, I’ve been immersed with my favourite VR social application
where I’ve visited family members, gone to and participated at live
events and customised my own places…
If you’d like to join me and become a part of this new world and
normal, I highly recommend you download this FREE application software
via your VR device or with your standard computer…
It’s called AltSpaceVR – IT’S AWESOME
