Photonic input-output devices used in virtual and augmented reality technologies

Solutions in the field of virtual reality (VR) are very strongly related to photonics technologies. It is thanks to them information is obtained and presented to users. This applies in particular to the process of using the immersion VR application. Head mounted displays (HMD) with a large field of view (FOV) or photonic Motion Capture (MoCap) systems together with 3D cameras guarantee extraordinary experiences in immersive VR applications. The article reviews selected technologies from the point of view of the possibility of their use in VR systems.
