  • Abstract
    Virtual reality (VR) is a powerful technology for solving today´s real-world problems. It provides a way for people to visualize, manipulate, and interact with simulated environments through the use of computers and extremely complex data. This paper describes some of the emerging applications of VR recently completed or currently underway in the field of nanotechnology with emphasis on existing experimental systems
