Presence refers to the subjective experience of being physically present in a virtual environment.

Which file format is commonly used for storing 3D models used in VR content creation?

  1. OBJ

  2. FBX

  3. DAE

  4. STL


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

FBX (Filmbox) is a widely adopted file format for storing 3D models and animations, making it suitable for VR content creation.

What is the primary purpose of foveated rendering in VR headsets?

  1. Reducing motion sickness

  2. Improving visual quality

  3. Conserving computational resources

  4. All of the above
