Simulated reality

Simulated reality is a type of technology that makes things seem real even though they are not. It can be used in computer games and virtual reality experiences. It works by taking real life objects and turning them into digital versions that look and feel like they are real. For example, in a computer game you might see objects like trees and rocks that look just like they would in real life, but they are actually made up of digital pixels instead of physical matter. Simulated reality can also create environments and scenarios that would otherwise be impossible to create in real life, like a city underwater, or a land filled with dragons and magical creatures.
