A fictional computer world or digital realm; from the 1982 movie of the same name where a programmer is transported into a digital universe.
Coined as the title of a 1982 science fiction film by director Steven Lisberger. The word likely comes from 'electron' but has become its own term in popular culture.
TRON was visionary for 1982—it imagined digital worlds and virtual reality decades before the internet became widespread. Today, with VR headsets and metaverse companies, the film's vision seems almost prophetic about how we'd eventually interact with digital spaces.
