Abstract

Disclosed herein are a virtual golf simulation device and method for providing stereophonic sound for weather conditions configured such that it is possible for a user to visually and aurally recognize a weather condition, such as wind, when the user plays a round of virtual golf on a virtual golf course using the virtual golf simulation device, and, in particular, the direction or intensity of the wind is expressed via multi-channel stereophonic sound, whereby it is possible to provide a high level of realism even without actually blowing air.
