gaming but VR and XR are going to shape our future in so many more ways than purely entertainment. From healthcare to real estate, recruitment, and education, this article covers 23 industries already using VR – and this is just the start.

For anyone who isn’t quite up to speed with VR, here’s a very brief definition: VR is the term used to describe a computer-generated environment that someone can explore and interact with. A user is immersed in the environment and the brain is basically tricked into thinking what someone is seeing in the virtual world is real.

1. Automotive industry
Virtual Reality (VR) is reshaping how the automotive industry handles vehicle design, engineering, and customer interaction. Major brands like Honda, BMW, and Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) use VR to conduct design and engineering reviews, significantly reducing the need for costly physical prototypes. This not only saves millions in man-hours and development costs but also enables global collaboration, allowing designers and engineers to work together across borders.
