Wikipedia
Holodeck

A holodeck is a fictional virtual reality facility featured in the Star Trek universe. It is often used for recreational activities. The holodeck is often used to recreate familiar places, participate in interactive stories, and to practice a variety of sports and skills. In the Star Trek universe, Holodeck environments and people are created by the use of "hard light" holograms, which are confined to the holodeck or other areas with "holographic projectors."

In the real world there is no such technology although scientists predict virtual reality tools similar to the holodeck (but without the ability to touch) "will become a consumer-ready product by 2024."
