1. I would like to use Google Earth VR, because this application allows you to find yourself anywhere in the world and "walk" around the city, see the sights, etc. This is a good opportunity to travel the world without leaving home
2. The benefits of virtual reality include:
1) Virtual reality allows people to immerse themselves in a simulation and experience unique or inaccessible events and situations in reality. This can be especially useful for educational, scientific and training purposes.
2) Virtual reality creates the impression of being in another world or environment, so that users can fully immerse themselves in the virtual environment. It can be an exciting and emotionally intense experience.
3) Virtual reality offers a variety of gaming and entertainment options that can be interesting and exciting for users.
But there are also some disadvantages of virtual reality:
1) Prolonged use of virtual reality can cause discomfort, eye fatigue and balance problems. In addition, users can risk forgetting about the real world and facing potentially dangerous situations.
2) Social isolation: Immersion in virtual reality can separate people from the real world and real interactions with other people. This can lead to social isolation and a deterioration in the quality of communication.
3) Cost and accessibility: Virtual reality can be quite expensive and inaccessible to many people. The purchase of special equipment is required, which can become an obstacle for certain groups of users.

1. I would like to use Mars VR because I'm not an astronaut. So I guess I will never get the opportunity to investigate the space in real life.
2. There are several advantages of VR technologies. For example, it allows you to play computer games with your friends in unusual conditions. Also, with gadgets of virtual reality you can visit exotic places such as peak of mountain Everest. As for disadvantages, VR technology is really expensive. Moreover, people, who use VR regulary, tend to spend a lot of time at home instead of walking and communicating with people.
As for me, I am ready for virtual reality and I would like to try this technology because it's an exiting entertainment.

1)I would use Google Earth VR, because thanks to it I could walk around all the cities of the earth and no one would bother me to admire the views, and I wouldn't have to go anywhere to do it.
2)I think the advantages of virtual reality are that it allows you to get an experience unlike anything else, allows you to feel something that you could not experience in real life.Among the disadvantages, I would note that so far our brain cannot adequately perceive what is happening to a person in virtual reality because of this, using devices that transfer you to virtual reality for a long time can be dangerous to health

I would like to use an application where you can enjoy a panoramic view of Mars, wander around the neighborhood, and admire the Martian sky, because in real life no one can do that. Perhaps this can be done in reality only when a human ❌foot sets foot on the surface of Mars.
The benefits of virtual reality include the ability to create new and unique experiences, education, entertainment, and treatment of various diseases. The disadvantages include the possibility of deterioration of health, lack of real interaction with the outside world and potential dependence. I'm not ready for this, because I can get a lot more sensations and emotions in reality.

I would like to use an app where you can study art, go to museums in different countries. In real life it is not so easy. First you need to save money for travel, also have to find time to travel to other countries. In addition, in 2024 ❓❗ to visit many countries ... became impossible for citizens of Russia ....
Virtual reality has many advantages, for example, obtaining new emotions, feelings, knowledge.
There are also shortcomings, such as lack of interaction with the real world. It is hard for me to tell if I am ready for this, because I am afraid that the virtual world can completely replace reality.

Certainly, all mentioned apps have their own features, but I would like to use theBlu application. First of all, this is due to the fact that I love the sea, oceans and so on. but I’m afraid to dive deep because I feel uncomfortable with the pressure in my ears. And thanks to VR, I can do that. Secondly, to see the underwater world with my own eyes - it’s something incredible. And finally, the opportunity to see the largest creature on the planet - the blue whale - makes this app attractive to me.
I can say that virtual reality has advantages and disadvantages. In my opinion, the most important benefits ❌is that users ❓… spending an amazing time. Using virtual reality brings users unsurpassed experience. With VR technology, they can immerse themselves in perfectly realistic places, hear the sounds around them, and see things that seem real. Be❓cides, virtual reality gives ❓… a full and detailed view of the place. For example, virtual reality makes tourist sites more interesting and simple. It gives ❓… a detailed idea of the place you want to visit.
The ❌most great disadvantage of virtual reality is the high cost of this entertainment, so not everyone can afford this pleasure. And of course, we must not forget the development of users dependence on virtual reality, which can lead to degradation of both psychological and physical health.

Re: Module 2.6 Are you ready to live in a virtual world?

Each application is interesting in its own way, but, due to the fact that I want to travel a lot and see various places around the world, applications like Boulevard, Google Earth or theBlu don't really interest me, as I would like to see these places with my own eyes. If I were to use the VR, it would only be to go to Mars, explore the depths of oceans, fly in space, or climb Mount Everest. I think that, for the most part, virtual reality has more pros than cons. With virtual reality, people can experience things they wouldn't dare try in real life. Also, with a virtual headset, they can overcome their fears. It is great to live in an age where technology like this exists, as it allows people to travel and see places that weren't accessible before.

1) In general, I was interested in all the applications presented in the video. I’ve never had the experience of using a virtual reality, so I think it’s all very cool and exciting. But I can still name two apps that interest me more. It may seem banal, but I’d like to use "Google Earth VR". It’s really interesting, because you can go to all kinds of places on earth that are hard to get to. Well, the bird’s-eye view got me very interested, too. I think this app is interesting to all people who like to travel, including me. I’d also like to use «theBlu». I love to swim and this adventure would be interesting for me. Diving underwater is exciting.
2) Virtual reality has its advantages and disadvantages. The advantages include a new level of entertainment and fun pastime. Also 3 [to the advantage] 2 [can be attributed] to [full immersion in the interactive world], which simplifies life not only for ordinary people, but also for people with disabilities. Well, it also includes the fact that thanks to virtual reality, people's education is improving and medicine is developing. Disadvantages include high cost, which is why not everyone can afford to use this technology. It is worth noting that virtual reality can cause addiction in people. Some may prefer the virtual world, forgetting about the real world. VR can also affect people’s mental state, causing some problems.
I think that I am ready to use virtual reality and that in the near future it will play an important role in our world. But it is necessary to be able to find a balance in the use of such technology, as real communication can not be replaced by anything. New technologies should be used wisely.

I don't like going to museums, but I really like space, so I would like to use the Mars VR app. I think this is a great opportunity to be on another planet, because the chance of visiting Mars in real life is extremely small. This application will allow anyone to go into space and explore Mars.
I can say that virtual reality has advantages and disadvantages. Advantages of virtual reality include its ability to create realistic environments for various purposes such as education, training and entertainment. Virtual reality also allows people to create virtual models of expensive projects, for example, space rockets, cars and submarines. And of course, virtual reality allows you to be anywhere in the world and see famous sights, if it isn't possible to visit these places in real life. Disadvantages of virtual reality may include negative effects on physical health such as motion sickness, eye strain, and disorientation. Also frequent use of virtual reality can be addictive, and there may be privacy and security issues ❌(may be) in virtual environments.

I prefer using theBlu, as it is a fascinating experience to look at marine creatures through VR. I really enjoy watching different fish and corals. I would love to know what lies at the bottom of the ocean and who inhabits it. But most of all, I would love to see a blue whale, this animal is incredibly big and beautiful.
There are numerous advantages to VR, including immersive experiences, enhanced learning opportunities, and the ability to simulate dangerous or costly scenarios in a safe environment. VR also has the potential to bridge geographical barriers and bring people together in virtual spaces. However, there are also disadvantages to consider. VR can be isolating, as users may become disconnected from the real world and spend excessive amounts of time in virtual environments.

I really liked all the apps mentioned in the video, but most of all I would like to try the "NASA's Mars 2030" app. I do not have the opportunity to visit another planet, but with this application it is possible. It allows you to enjoy panoramic views of the Martian surface. Everyone will be able to wander around the landscape and admire the Martian landscapes.

Virtual reality has been developing rapidly in recent years, opening up exciting opportunities for various industries. Virtual reality is a computer—generated environment that simulates the real world. It has a lot of advantages and disadvantages. I'll tell you some of them.
The advantages of virtual reality include:
1) Virtual reality creates an immersive and realistic experience, allowing users to feel inside the virtual world.
2) Virtual reality provides a new and exciting way of entertainment, allowing users to explore virtual worlds, play games and watch movies with the effect of presence.
3) Virtual reality can be used to create realistic simulations that allow users to practice performing complex tasks such as driving cars, flying airplanes or performing surgical operations in a safe and controlled environment.
The disadvantages of virtual reality include:
1) Virtual reality systems can be expensive, especially high-quality headsets and powerful computers needed for their operation, and not all people will be able to afford such a purchase.
2) The use of virtual reality can isolate users from the real world, which can be a problem if it is used for a long time.
3) Prolonged use of VR headsets can cause eye strain, headaches, or neck problems due to holding your head in an unnatural position for a long time.
As VR technologies evolve, the potential of VR continues to expand. It opens up limitless opportunities for innovation and creates a world where the virtual and the real are intertwined, creating an unprecedented experience.
