Introduction
 The aim of the research is to
evaluate the use of virtual reality in
transport.
 Virtual Reality is an emerging
concept that has a number of
applications
 The use of virtual reality in transport
is evaluated in the research report.
 The research identifies the use of
virtual reality and its effect on

Virtual Reality
 Virtual reality can be
described as an
interactive computer
generated experience
that takes place in a
stimulated
environment.
 A person can interact
with this virtual
environment by
making use of special
electronic equipments.

Cont..
 Virtual reality can be
achieved by making use
of a range of systems
and is implemented by
making use of computer
technology.
 The ranges of systems
that are used for
achieving virtual reality
include the headsets,
Omni-directional
treadmills and special
gloves.

Characteristics of VR
 There are certain specific
characteristics of Virtual Reality
which are as follows-
 It allows 3D view of objects
 A virtual environment developed by
virtual reality is able to provide
appropriate responses in real time as
the individuals explore the
surroundings.

Applications of VR
 There are a number of applications
of virtual Reality, which are as
follows-
 Application is improving the gaming
experiences
 Application in improving the
experiences in Sports
 Application in art and entertainment.

Advantages of VR
 There are a number of advantages of
making use of VR
 VR makes it possible for the
manufacturers to make their client
experience what they build
 VR is capable torevolutionise the
experiences of many aspects
virtually
 It could be used in transport as well

Cont..
 VR is an effective training tool
 The technology can therefore be
used for revolutionise the transport
process
 Virtual reality is mostly used in travel
industry to enhance the sales
experience
 This technology offers a way of
showing goods to the potential

Application of Virtual
Reality on Transport
 With a number of advantages it
offers, virtual Reality can be used on
transport as well
 With Virtual Reality, it is possible to
improve the commute experience
 Virtual Reality in transport is a need
for designing smart cities .
 Virtual Reality in transport can be an
easy substitute the transit option

Cont..
 The use of more
enhanced technology
is necessary to meet
the increased transit
demands which
virtually reality can
fulfill
 The use of virtual
reality in the system
makes the critical
transportation system
more efficient.

Research Methodology
 The research methodology mainly
refers to the research methods,
process and procedures that help in
undertaking and performing the
research study.
 The process and procedures include
the use of different tools and
techniques for data collection and
analysis of data.
