cyberspace

(Coined by William Gibson) Notional “information-space” loaded with visual cues and navigable with brain-computer interfaces called “cyberspace decks”; a characteristic prop of cyberpunk SF. In 1991 serious efforts to construct virtual reality interfaces modelled explicitly on Gibsonian cyberspace were already under way, using more conventional devices such as glove sensors and binocular TV headsets.
