Is VR dead already?

Is VR dead already?

yup

it was dead in approximately 1992, they were just taking advantage of young people to embezzle funding this time around.

VR hasn't died, its in its infancy. It's starting to be used in the medical field, and Valve is investing loads of money into it. So no its not dead, it's just that its a new tech. Oculus is shoving money into advertising for gamers, so obviously there's something that's alive.

Nope, it's pretty ok right now, there's actually content it doesn't get boring.

we need more kickstarters

VR was never alive and will never be alive until we can use brain chemistry to effect people. There will not be effective VR in our lifetimes.

Are we sure it's dead? Because I'm seeing some porn that can be used with VR in shit like 6K and it looks pretty awesome

>(((porn)))

This.

They will probably re-hype it around 2045 when everybody has forgotten how ancient the tech is and why it failed before.
Same with self driving cars.

>its in its infancy
>for 4 decades

Only hardcore gamers care about immersion and they're the only ones who ever bought into this new wave of the same garbage. For everyone else, the most important aspect of technology is integration into their life. And VR is about as far as you can get from being well-integrated into a person's life.

Self-driving cars have a future. Just not a present. Instead of going pants-on-head retarded with these machine learning dynamic image processing algorithms that never work except under optimal conditions, they just need to focus on durable external (i.e. on the road, not the car) sensors and convenient 3D mapping technology. If the car actually knew the road and the road state rather than just guessing it, then it'd be a fairly trivial task.

Point is we already had self driving cars in the 1990's.
They didn't catch on then and neither will the modern equivalents.

btw: the 90's selft driving cars didn't need any fancy sensors, they just put magnets in the center of the motorways and coils under the cars to pick up the magnetic fields.
They could even encode navigational information (like which exit was next) by alternating the north/south orientation of the magnets.

when a car has the ethical to either kill the driver or kill an old lady on the street, what will it do?

its just too uncomfy for people to wear to ever make it huge. people dont even like wear ng 3D glasses

Cars will never be programmed like that.
They will be programmed to minimize chance of collisions, which is generally best for all parties involved.

They aren't conscious being with a concept of death.
They are just machines with relatively simple algorithms.

no its not, am playing beat saber rite now

Games look gay, and unfinished clones of each other, and the headsets are too low res.

Convince me to buy an Oculus Rift right now. I really want you to.

AR was always the superior technology.
