VR apps help the user to place himself inside an experience and interact with the 3D world instead of just watching a screen kept in front. But what creates a visual reality? Our sense organs are the ones that trigger our experiences and make us sense the feeling something in real.

Virtual Reality implies the stimulation of these senses organs, creating a sense of touch, hearing, vision, and in some cases, even the smell.
