Urban Planning: The Potential For Developers and Planners to Use Virtual Reality Techniques

Application of virtual reality in many areas can effectively drive real-time operational decisions and resolution. Virtual reality simply covers a vast range of aspects such as medicine, engineering, history, entertainment and almost any field comes across our mind. With such exposure into this new...
