VR games are centered around sight and sound, and are currently limited in their spatial and sensory representation. BCI technology can overcome this limitation by using brain waves to allow the brain to manipulate the computer. The convergence of BCI technology and VR is expected to further improve the sense of realism and convenience.   Recently, the commercialization of VR games has been...
