well what is perception? It is mostly visual, sensory, temporal, olifactory, auditory and sensory. Visual audio have received far more attention than the other areas. We still don't have digital smell generator, we don't have micro tactile bodysuits with genital stimulation, nor do we have digital taste.

In the future, once we have complete mastery of all facets of human sensory inputs, we can record and manipulate experiences.
