Not just currently...
The USAF experimented with synthetic-reality environments for piloting in the 1980s with projects such as VCASS. But eventually they settled upon augmented reality, as did the Army.
30 years on the 'how' of synthetic / virtual reality has advanced hugely but have we answered the 'why'?
- nxzero 11y agoAppears you're saying that non-commercial use is the same as commercial; disagree, story is about the commercial use of VR by mainstream users. More to the point, cost per unit including the backend costs in way beyond what a consumer would pay. Appears you're saying that augmented (sythentic) and virtual reality are equivalents, but also state the US military has decided they're not. Am I missing something?
