The virtual reality you used to see in movies or on TV where you would put on a helmet and actually enter it and have full movement capabilities. Something like that one episode of Batman The Animated Series where Commissioner Gordon goes into the Riddler's computer and gets trapped or just about any other cliche, dumb way they portrayed VR back then.

We have some cool VR treadmills, one of them thats releasing soon will even only cost $1k (cheap in comparison to every other VR treadmil released previously). Combine that with full body tracking and a good high end headset like the Bigscreen Beyond or Immersed Visor.
