The concept of artificial reality was first introduced by Myron Krueger in the late 1960s.
In 1964, Stanislav Lem, in his book Summa Technologies, under the term Phantomology, describes the tasks and the essence of the answer to the question “how to create a reality that for intelligent beings living in it would be no different from normal reality, but would submit to others the laws?
The first virtual reality system appeared in 1962, when Morton Heilig (Eng. Morton Heilig) introduced the first prototype of a multisensory simulator, which he called "Sensorama" (Sensorama).
In 1967, Ivan Sutherland (born Ivan Sutherland) described and constructed the first helmet, the image of which was generated using a computer. The Sutherland helmet allowed the images to be changed according to the movements of the head (visual feedback).
In the 1970s, computer graphics completely replaced the video, previously used in simulators. The graphics were extremely primitive, but the important thing was that the simulators (they were flight simulators) worked in real time.
The Aspen Movie Map, created at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1977, is considered the first implementation of virtual reality. This computer program simulated a walk through the city of Aspen, Colorado, giving the opportunity to choose between different ways to display the terrain. Summer and winter options were based on real photos. [ Wikipedia ]

Master Program

In September 2017, the Game Development & VR training program started at FEFU and they are already splashing the hackathons.

In two days, the hackathon participants developed and submitted prototype programs for companies. For the “Samson German Rehabilitation Center”, the best student team called Dream Team created a virtual reality trainer to rehabilitate patients after shoulder injuries.

The project “AR2017” invited students to launch an application using information modeling technologies of industrial and civil objects. In augmented reality, the program created by the winning team p.Djon shows the communications hidden behind the walls of the building.

By order of the largest organizer of rest "Mosgortur" students created an application in augmented reality for the museum named after MA. Bulgakov - with his help, users must complete a quest along the route of memorable places connected with the life and work of the writer. The first to develop an application for Mosgortura is the Gopher student team. A total of 12 teams with the tasks coped nine. All of them were awarded cash prizes in the amount of 15-50 thousand rubles.

Olympics and hackathons for schoolchildren by AR / VR

In 2017, 3,400 students from Russia and the CIS countries took part in the first stage of the STI Olympiad.
