The language barrier is really making it difficult to see progress in China even for people interested in a particular space. For example, in just the VR space, if I follow the most popular VR related subreddits and podcasts I often miss important Chinese VR hardware and software. And sometimes the hardware is better than anything available in the US. I only found out about these cutting edge haptic gloves called Dexmo because I happened upon a review of an American product on an expert blog and the review compared them to a Chinese version. https://skarredghost.com/2020/04/07/senseglove-vr-haptics-gloves/ https://skarredghost.com/2020/04/07/senseglove-vr-haptics-gl...
