Morpheus contains technical improvements that make the VR experience more life-like, Sony's more practical addition is a slide-able display, meaning you won't have to take it off to re-enter the real world. Sony trotted out a new prototype of its virtual-reality headset, code-named Project Morpheus, bringing it a step closer to final release, which the company says won't happen until 2016. The new device, unveiled at the Game Developers Conference here, looks similar to the initial prototype, but Sony says it includes technical improvements that will give consumers a better experience. Morpheus enables developers to create experiences that deliver a sense of presence - where players feel as though they are physically inside the virtual world of a game. Presence is like a window into another world that heightens the emotions gamers experience as they play.
