I just feel like VR is never really going to be a thing most people enjoy using. People have always used tools with their hands, the smartphone is just the most advanced version yet. Wearing something over your field of vision feels unnatural and unintuitive, and I don’t see that ever changing. I already feel kinda uncomfortable even when I just put my hoodie up. What if someone comes at me from behind 🫣
But we are still at the very beginning of this technology. People will start using them at home because they are more suitable than phones for some activities, but as usage increases there will also be more research on the subject - so technology can advance and become less invasive -. Once usage increases and the tool becomes less invasive, I see very few barriers to them spreading outside.
While I wouldn’t want to wear an AVP around people, if someone came up to me it would be nice for them to know if I’m seeing them via passthrough or if I’m completely in VR
I think its very odd that they managed to combine VR and google glass to some how come up with something even more off putting. Can’t wait to see someone wearing these while driving.
I’m waiting for someone to make a parody of this so the outside screen displays a blurry porno
Is there a reason you say that? I like the pass through mode on the Oculus Rift S for grabbing my water bottle and what not
Oh hey Tim Cook tweeted a video ad about the nightmare goggles today and the first thing it showed was someone using them to work while barely paying attention to making their child breakfast.
Very cool and good I love capitalism =^)
