29、不同于欣赏普通电影时观众被动地观看和聆听屏幕上发生的一切，RealCine将会使你感觉仿佛身临其境，它能调动你的视觉、听觉、嗅觉和触觉。想象一下一个虚拟现实电影的观众在观看以游览喜马拉雅山为内容的电影。他/她不仅能感受到攀登珠穆朗玛峰的每一步，还能体验到周围环境的寒冷、气息、风景和声音；到达山顶时他/她也会体验到一种愉悦感和成就感。RealCine的工作目的是使观众觉得自己真真切切地处在一个新世界一个只在电脑程序里存在的世界。为了实现这个目标，VR的耳机采用了特殊的设计，使观众既能看到3D画面，又能听到立体环绕声音。耳机的移动显示着观众想去的方向。观众也将戴上一双特制的手套，这样就可以触摸他们
30、所看到的人或物了。为了增强RealCine电影的真实感，耳机上还有一些小孔，这些小孔可以发出与环境相协调的气味，而耳机和手套都与RealCine电脑系统相连接。科学研究表明，观看VR电影还是社交障碍的有效治疗方法。有一个用VR电影治疗一名害怕与校友说话和玩耍的少年的案例。在RealCine创造的世界里，这位少年成了巴西足球队的队长，而且在世界杯决赛中他踢进了决定胜利的关键一球，这就使得他面对他人时变得更自信。不过有人提出了不同的看法：RealCine电影会让一些观众失望，因为它毕竟不是现实。但是，我们可以利用VR电影做到我们在真实世界里不可能做到的事情。比如，在RealCine电影的帮助下，一
31、位70岁的老爷爷最近完成了他的非洲之旅。在现实生活中，他是一名不能行走的残疾人，但借助VR工作室里的便利设备，他能看见并触摸一头狮子。除此之外，VR技术还可以应用于技能的训练，使原本危险的训练环境变得安全。例如，消防员可以利用RealCine技术进行安全的训练，而不用冒着被燃烧的楼房弄伤致残的危险。这项技术也可以应用于课堂。老师们可以把学生带入古代城镇，用这种方法鲜活地还原历史，也可以使学生作为鲸鱼或松鼠去体验这个世界来上生物课。最后，RealCine为城市规划提供了出色的技术支持。设计师可以把一个地区的规划输入电脑，然后利用VR技术“走遍”这个小区，观察自己的设计效果和进行真正施工前的设计修改。从长远来说，与现在大多数城市规划方式相比，这种形式的城市规划更经济、更实用。我推荐政府将这种技术应用于未来的城市规划设计。
