Wearable technology
The creation of the first virtual reality headset can be credited to Cinematographer Morton Heilig. He created a device known as the Sensorama in 1962. The Sensorama was a videogame like device that was so heavy that it needed to be held up by a suspension device.
Michael Mack
In 2002, Mack established his first own company, Mack Media. This company creates 3D/4D movies and virtual reality coasters. In 2015, the first VR coaster was officially launched in Europa-Park. The VR coaster in combination with a specially created "Coastiality" app received the "Deutschen Computerspielpreis", a award which is given by "Verband der deutschen Games-Branche e.V." and German Bundestag.
The German weekly magazine Wirtschaftswoche described Mack as a pioneer in this field.
