Virtual reality is becoming increasingly realistic, and we've tried out some cutting edge VR tech. Here are our favourite VR experiences so far:

The Slide Experience at The View from The Shard: This experience sees you strapped into a moving chair as you travel down an imaginary slide at 100 mph. The slide starts in the Skydeck of The Shard, Europe's tallest building, sending you hurtling down a slide high above London's skyline.

Moon walking at the Mobile World Congress: This VR simulation lets you walk on the moon. You're strapped into a harness and free to explore, the harness adjusts to your weight in real time simulating the moon's low gravity.

Hospital Escape Terror: This horror game is created by Capcom, you play a character attempting to escape a virtual horror hospital. You control your characters wheelchair with a joystick and you light the way as you try to escape. You can even play the game with a friend.

Flying Dino: This experience was part of the Samsung VR booth at the Mobile World Congress. It lets you take control of a flying dinosaur as you glide and flip through the air. You're strapped to a fully rotating chair which makes the experience even more realistic.

Snowboarding with Samsung Gear VR: This snowboarding simulation lets you race down a mountain. The snowboard you're standing on matches the movements on screen letting you really feel like you're in the action.
