Re: usage for work. I wonder how using VR googles can actually work in any sort of public space (like an office). Since your vision is absolutely obscured, it basically requires absolute trust of the people around you. Other people can not only steal your wallet from your bag (that could still happen in a regular office, people leave private stuff unattended), but can for example come close to you and touch your hair or do other kinds of pervy things. I can't imagine women not being worried about this.
A solution would be to give each employee a tiny office with a door and a lock, which wouldn't be a bad outcome of VR to be honest...
- shubb 4y agoThe headsets have cameras on the outside your vision can "pass through" and you can see the world around you - just with virtual objects in it. This gives you a mixed reality experience rather than a virtual world. So for example you see the cafe around you but with you laptop screen hovering above the table and your australian friend bob sat on the other side. One of the big feature improvements on this unit is that those cameras area lot better. Another feature is that the headset uses some kind of lidar to map out the space around you, so that even if you are in an immersive experience objects and people coming into the real world area you marked out will get overlayed into your virtual world, so you can see bob sneaking up behind you. These headsets are pretty cool and the consumer one is pretty cheap. Well worth getting one even if you are intending to sell it on after experimenting.
