How far are we from fully-immersive “Matrix” style VR?

The official Subreddit for the Isaac Arthur YouTube channel. This Sub focuses on discussing his videos and exploring concepts in science with an emphasis on futurism, space exploration, along with a healthy dose of science fiction. I mean the type of VR that is directly hooked up to your brain instead of your external senses and is more or less indistinguishable from reality (is there a proper term for it?). Do we have any idea how to do it, or is it purely in the realm of speculation at this stage?
