This is in line with my anecdotal experience. A few of my coworkers got Oculus go when it first came out, and all of them ended up returning it. The only thing it seems to be good for is watching normal non-VR content, which they don't need a VR headset for. It doesn't have enough power for gaming.
I could see it being useful like, on airplanes or something, but I don't think we're at a place yet socially where someone could wear a VR headset on a plane and not look like a weirdo/pervert.
- leetrout 8y agoThe Go's design (materials and form factor) are far from obtrusive and would not appear out of place any more than a neck pillow in the long run. To jump to "weirdo/pervert" is quite a leap. Consuming 2D video in a headset that fits correctly (the Go is not adjustable in width) is much more relaxing and reduces eye strain in my experience. As another commenter posted this has a lot of potential as a media consumption device (movies, moving comic books, spatial data) outside of the immersion or 3D gimmicks.
- girvo 8y agoWeirdo I get, but pervert? Huh?
- sethrin 8y agoThere's a fair amount of VR porn already. It's maybe not quite entirely fair to associate porn with new display technologies, but I can see why people might. And in this case, who knows what you're really looking at?
