Since people might not be familiar with the term yet, I feel it's useful to point out that it's spelled "presence" with a 'c', as in, you feel as if you were actually present in a virtual reality.

Haha I was reading the parent and I was like "Pre-sense?" "What would that have to do with feeling immersed in VR?" This cleared it up, thanks.

Heh, and for a moment there I thought Pre-Sense was some Google Tech - similar to Adsense - for monetizing 3D VR :)

Heh, I figured there was probably a word for it out there somewhere invented by the people actually doing the stuff. I'll take a look at this, thanks.
Michael Abrash has a wonderful deck he wrote while at Valve about what it will take for VR to create Presense in the viewer. It's worth a read if you care about how we'll navigate past the uncanny valley of VR you describe: http://media.steampowered.com/apps/abrashblog/Abrash%20Dev%2...
