# Full-Dive Virtual Reality
**Entity class:** Neurotechnology horizon
**Domain:** Virtual reality / Brain-computer interfaces
**Maturity:** Developed
## Definition
Full-dive virtual reality is an immersive interface in which sensory experience and action are mediated directly enough to create the functional experience of entering a synthetic environment.
## Mechanism and significance
The concept would require coordinated neural write-in, readout, embodiment, safety, and agency controls far beyond visual and auditory headsets.
