- Virtual reality is catching on as a tool in medicine. The technology has been used to treat phobias, reduce pain and even help doctors perform surgery.
Now virtual reality is being tried as a way to help people with disabilities explore the world that might be difficult or impossible in real life. And it's happening at a price that's well within reach.
For $10 anyone can buy a cardboard headset, download a free iPhone app, slide in a phone and explore virtual worlds from a wheelchair, bed or couch.

Problem is that a lot of VR is going to start depending on motion in the next while. Stuff like the HTC vive is going to outclass the occulus-type vr very quickly, and is actually going to make a lot of the "building" sandbox games a lot more popular IMO.
