It seemed as though virtual reality was everywhere at CES 2015, and the products on display are more tantalizing -- and closer to reality -- than ever before. Here's an interview with Dhan Balachand, CEO of Canadian company Sulon Technologies, discussing the origin of the Cortex VR. As it turns out, the system owes its existence in part to a dream about Resident Evil!  

Interestingly, the Cortex is capable of dynamically mapping the environment around the wearer and incorporating it into the gameplay experience. In theory, that should allow players to walk around in their homes while playing a game without worrying about tripping over unseen objects.
