Read the excerpt from "Virtual Reality Gets Real." During a recent demonstration of Google Cardboard-a DIY headset that's made of cardboard and uses a
smartphone for the display—I found myself by turns atop a rocky peak, in a barn next to a snorting horse, and
on a gondola making my way up a mountain. The gondola ride gave me vertigo.
We react like that, experts say, because our brains are easily fooled when what we see on a display tracks
our head movements. "We have a reptilian instinct that responds as if it's real: Don't step off that cliff, this
battle is scary," Jeremy Bailenson, the founding director of Stanford's Virtual Human Interaction Lab, told me.
"The brain hasn't evolved to tell you it's not real."
