A Brief History of Augmented Reality (Korea)

Sensorama by Morton Heilig

Aug 28, 1962

Morton invented in 1957 and patented in 1962 under patent # 3,050,870. It is a simulator for one to four people that provides the illusion of reality using a 3-D motion picture with smell, stereo sound, vibrations of the seat, and wind in the hair to create the illusion
