For a positive example, I’d like to meet or chat with coworkers and management full-VR/AR when they are in the other office or city. Because text is still a pretty low-bandwidth medium for many people and/or topics.
- Mistletoe 4y agoWhy do you need VR or 3d for that? Why can’t a webcam do it?
- dinvlad 4y agoOn top of this, many people prefer to "zoom out" rather than "zoom in" during meetings :-) Though that's not everyone.
- wruza 4y agoDepends on a webcam app/hw. If it allows for an equivalent of in-person “protocols”^, sure. Looking at someone, negotiating attention, proximal subchats, etc. But still, imagine a meeting in a restaurant and everyone is peering into their laptops to just see me echoing around. Anticiating the next question, yes, I find in-person bandwidth (usually, as in popular software) superior to webcam. ^ This could be done in non-VR apps too, but convincing IMs to make UI for that is even less real than creating VR glasses.
