Over the last few decades, there have been abundant changes in the industrial sector, particularly in design, manufacturing, prototyping, safety check, production process, etc. Collaborated efforts of IT and machine have led to increase in production and efficiency of the manufacturing process. Collaborated technologies have boosted the productivity not only in the industrial sector but also have been a stepping stone in commerce field such as retail, tourism, marketing, etc. This paper discusses about the need of using one of the collaborated technologies such as “virtual reality” in an organization.
