Between the massive price tag, the silly pass-trhough cameras, and not being able to view porn easily I'm really not clear who they're trying to sell too.
Driving/racing Sims are legitimately extremely fun and immersive in VR. If you have a full setup, they are kinda mindblowing. I used to do some iracing and I had a vr headset hooked up with a basic rig. Formula vee racing... I can't describe it. So much fun
Theres this app on Oculus/Meta called Bigscreen that lets you watch movies and TV shows for free in a virtual theater, hosted by people streaming them from their computers. I guess it, for the time being, is perfectly legal to do because it's essentially no different from showing a movie at your place.
A buddy of mine used to do this. He'd host a public room and have polls to let viewers decide what to watch next. He streamed movies from his giant hard drive.
They're getting there. There's some "Beyond" VR set built by hackers to be the best image possible and it's tiny and barely weighs anything. The tech is improving by leaps and bounds year by year.
There are, literally, four us cases for vr
playing laser tag with furries in vrchat
flight sims
vr porn
wait i guess there are only three.
I like modeling and animating in vr. It's janky, but it lets me rapidly crank out drafts, even with very basic skills.
But yeah, no way I would've ever gotten a headset if I couldn't use it for porn.
OK, but those are all a lot of fun.
Yes but this means apple just gave 1/3 of their product’s use case the bird. It is objectively 1/3 less useful than a huge quantity of cheaper stuff
A bit more than 1/3, since playing laser tag with furries and trying to fly a 747 are not exclusive with porn.
I'm sorry
this is what the planes of the revolution look like

What's wrong with pass-though cameras?
Nothing per se, and I guess it solves the problem of brightness in AR glasses, but it also looks a lot like a solution searching for a problem.
Someone's probably combined all three in VR Chat in one of the "not open to the public" rooms.

I guess this could be included as part of flight sims but sim (car) racing is another use case for vr

Everything worked for monitors should work with VRs. If only they are much lighter.

oh wow
Yes. And I am patiently waiting. Apple has a good record of drawing competitors into the market. Hopefully they become affordable in this decade.
