Comments on: Forget 3D, Where’s My Virtual Reality? /tech/2011/11/forget-3d-wheres-my-virtual-reality/ Sat, 15 Jul 2017 19:01:00 +0000 hourly 1 By: WiredEarp /tech/2011/11/forget-3d-wheres-my-virtual-reality/#comment-4423 Tue, 06 Dec 2011 21:59:00 +0000 /?p=8979&post_type=tech#comment-4423 Yep, this author’s ‘conclusions’ are pretty laughable.
This one was the most amusing: ‘While wrap-around VR headsets had, and never will, take hold’

Talking about technologies he doesn’t t know about with such certainty, is laughable.

“News flash! The past is laughable if looking at it with today’s expectations!”

Yeah, sure. But remember that for a long time, a pencil was considered high technology.

What excited people about VR wasn’t the hardware, but the immersion. It will come about in the future, only with a different hardware footprint, yeah maybe on the inside of the eye (but i’d rather not).

Technology, like all things, ebbs & flows; we ebb out to some extreme, then pull back a little. Then ebb out again. We are fluid.
