What Will Immersive Technology Look Like in 2030?
The more advanced technology gets, the more it's clear that greater realism is at the top of developers' work if the surroundings are clearly pixelated.
There have been some incredible updates to graphics in the last couple of years, with the Unreal Engine 5 representing one of the best developments yet. When this type of technology blends with VR, it will lead to super realistic virtual environments that could be difficult to differentiate from the real world.
Haptic Suits That Make People Feel VR
For VR to become fully immersive, people will need to feel as though they are in the digital world. That means that touch will play a significant role, and developers are already making haptic technology that allows for the inclusion of this feature.
This kind of immersive technology includes gloves that give users the sense that they are holding objects, as well as full suits, such as the Teslasuit, that have been developed by tech companies. Unfortunately, the technology is overpriced for the end user currently, but it will become cheaper over time and could be commonplace by 2030.
Technology has already reached a stage of great immersion, but there are going to be huge developments throughout the rest of the decade that improve it massively. Soon, people will be able to feel like they have been completely transported to another place through technology.
