What would it take to create the perfect virtual reality?

Sean E asked:


I know this is all hypothetical, but what would it take to make a completely realistic virtual world? Like the kind in the movies and video games. Where the person inside can’t even detect that what they’re experiencing isn’t real.

For example, you’d have to block all sensory input to the brain and replace it with sensory input from the virtual environment. Then figure out someway to hook up motor output functions to the device so that it would appear that you could maneuver through the reality.

What else would it take? Any ideas?

    Full Immersion Virtual Reality

    First, you would have to have a device to manipulate the brain into “thinking it’s somewhere else” and not the real world. Kind of like the device the Riddler uses in Batman Forever. It would have to control your interactions in the game so that certain things can’t happen to you, like dying or getting raped or something bad like that.
    Second, you would have to have another device to read and record how the brain is responding to its new environment at all times, to ensure that the person won’t get “lost” in this new world.
    You’d need to have all the programmers and probabilitists to control/calculate the odds of something happening within the game. You’d need to have multiple ways to complete the game or else it really wouldn’t be that enjoyable.
    Though not necessarily needed, the game should be open to multiple kinds of people, that way anybody can afford it.
    Happy to give my imput.
