Thomas Kuhn makes the claim that, even in the hard sciences, real breakthroughs
and interesting discoveries only come from following these unconventional routes
[Kuhn, Thomas, The Structure of Scientific Revolutions, Chicago: University of

create the illusion of reality with a piece of machinery known as the computer.
This is done with several computer-user interfaces used to simulate the senses.
Among these, are stereoscopic glasses to make the simulated world look real, a
3D auditory display to give depth to sound, sensor lined gloves to simulate

Since the technology is fairly young, these interfaces have not been perfected,
