Electrical Engineering. When James Clerk Maxwell first published “A Dynamical Theoryof the Electromagnetic Field” in 1865, physicists found it difficult to grasp because the theoreticalframework seemed complicated. Mathematicians also found Maxwell’s work hard to understandbecause the equations were described in physical terms. Students nowadays still encounterdifficulty grasping the principles pertaining to electromagnetism due to a lack of intuitivefamiliarity with the phenomena. However, developing this intuition is limited by the 2D nature oftraditional display technologies, which cannot truly convey the three-dimensional (3D) nature ofE&M concepts. Advances in Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) display deviceshold great promise
