I don't see it happening. There's no way people are going to be strapping things to their faces for social interaction.

- cpeterso 11y agoI agree. Many people (30% apparently) prefer text messages over voice calls. I don't see 360° VR video being convenient or worth the bother for casual communication. http://www.cnn.com/2011/09/22/tech/mobile/americans-prefer-text-messages/index.html http://www.cnn.com/2011/09/22/tech/mobile/americans-prefer-t...
- interpol_p 11y agoOur home use has really diverged away from voice calls and towards messaging and FaceTime. Where FaceTime is reserved for special occasions (kids chatting to grandparents, long distance relatives, calling home when on a business trip). I wonder if VR as a communication tool could supplant video calling? Although it lacks the ability for a family to physically gather around a screen and communicate as a group.
