How is immersive virtual reality art best described when it uses sensors?

Immersive virtual reality art that employs sensors is best described as interactive because the use of sensors allows for real-time responses to the user's movements and actions within the virtual environment. This interaction creates a dynamic experience where the artwork changes in response to the viewer's behavior, enabling them to engage with the art in a participatory way. This interactivity contrasts with static forms of art, which do not change regardless of user interaction, and moves away from traditional art forms that are often fixed and meant to be viewed rather than engaged with. While "visual" is an aspect of immersive virtual reality art, it does not fully encapsulate the experience of engagement and participation offered by the use of sensors. Thus, "interactive" is the most fitting descriptor for this type of art.
