VR is a graveyard category like flying cars, Juicero, and perpetual motion.
- ggm 4y agoAlmost any demonstrator I have seen of it in semi-industrial or science use, is as a PR tool. It is indeed fantastic to be able to fly through the wiring diagram of a 747 or rotate a molecule in real-time, but what you're doing is pedagogical at best, and probably promotional no matter what. Architects can design in 2D perfectly well. Immersion is good for selling designs, but so is a cardboard model on the boardroom table, and if you make the sale, somebody gets to keep it as a tchotke. "what is the sun angle and shading like at midday and evening" you can do with packages off the shelf. "show me now" is all you've got in VR
