*Similar to means:

  • a non- or minimally-invasive technology to connect to the virtual world exists (minimally invasive meaning no cutting open your skull, no devices which can't be removed or exchanged/upgraded).

  • the world and controls do not need to be as sophisticated as SAO, but the experience should feel like as it would be sensed in the real world

  • the same goes for acting in the virtual world

  • this excludes VR applications with screens, exoskeletons etc. no matter how sophisticated they are

To do this non invasively would require field manipulation technologies that are way beyond what we currently have.
