@SeanW0823, thanks! We will have some lectures on virtual reality headsets later in the course. In the advanced headset you mentioned, the view you posted an image of comes from inward-facing cameras inside the headset.

FYI, and for all, I've slightly edited your comment using Markdown to make the URL you posted a hyperlink.

We have an article, 90 Second Guide to CS184 Website Markdown to show how to do this, as well as typeset math in your comments.

Thanks for the comment and image @SeanW0823. Following up on that further, Meta is working on "Codec Avatars" -- which is quite a fitting name for this slide! This website has a video where they use VR headsets with sensors facing inwards to reconstruct movement in real time.
