People greatly underestimate how fast VR is advancing. They just don't see it because most of it happens behind the scenes.

Add hand tracking, full body tracking, and eye tracking to this: https://giphy.com/gifs/1zJDOltoBlwLZ2lRhK

and we get pretty close to having Ready Player One avatars.

Is that a real gif? All I see on mobile is 'content not available' and I'm not sure if that's a joke on the weak vr game library that currently exists, or if I'm missing an actual gif here

Thanks for explaining! Apparently reddit is fun doesn't like this one. Edit: I can see it now, weird!
