- samename 7y agoI’m not familiar with avatar chat, but it does seem VR would solve some of the problems mentioned in the article (seeing the whole body, meaningful interactions, side conversations). The problem with VR is it’s not widely used at the moment. Maybe this will change as a result?
- gfodor 7y agoYep many of the benefits can be delivered without a VR headset (that's part of the gist of my post) - worth checking out.
