Ehhhjj, I just don't see VR or AR fully taking off. VR is borderline pointless for much other than gaems and maybe some kinds of simulation. AR just seems annoying and distracting as it is. AR is the bigger maybe for me but I don't think the doomscroll would be as effec without it being on a small handheld device. It's a fidget and if you're like me, used while watching movies or whatever while periodically checking phone crap. If it's part of your general vision and not something to periodically look down at I think tmit will be too obtrusive.
AR still seems to be massively underutilized in areas where it could be cool. Why no AR Mario kart go kart tracks yet Nintendo? :whywhywhywhywhy: pretty sure I could knock that up myself in a few months.
Liability. The first time I was knocked unconscious was from treating real life go karting like Mario Kart. I'm guessing you want items which could really only have the effect of locking a Kart down for a period of time, that's some whiplash right there unless it comes to a gradual stop which is hard to do.
The big market with VR I would think is virtual remote work, and Facebook's profit model of advertising + data collection would cause a lot of corporate IT departments to pass on it. The tech also isn't really good enough yet on Oculus for people to spend a significant amount of time doing real work while wearing a headset. I think a company like Apple or MS would probably stand a better chance of pulling that off.

Nintendo actually did to AR Mario Kart with RC cars for a Switch add on toy thing, don't think it sold the best but it looks cool as hell
If it's easy enough that they can do it on limited run of toys, why not just slap the tech a set of real go karts?

I want real F Zero racing instead.
