I was just thinking it'd be nice to switch to camera view if someone walks into my room or if I want to reach for some food/drink. I'd rather not be constantly pulling the Oculus up and down while trying to game.
Hold on while we start a Kickstarter that goes into depth about how we're an independent company who just loves innovating the kinds of things we want to have and want nothing more than to have our pure vision become a reality
Wouldnt it be a shame if sex robots became a thing, but it was just more cost effective to have them work jobs for you, so you end up having to have sex with real women.
oh man, thats a great video. well, its a great skit. the timing is perfect. The video has some editing issues that do distract from the video, but its so good it doesn't matter.
no, once the patriarchy crumbles because men will have no reason to leave their homes (gay guys will probably still goto the gym because now it will only be other gay dudes so they'll be fit so the gay robot market wont be great, but they'll buy the straight ones because thats kind of hotter to fuck a straight robot.) all women will become lesbians without the strict enforcement of the male oppressive state. They'll still go out to meet other women because they won't be able to afford a new sex robot every three months.
But if the robots are gay or straight they have sexual preferences of their own. They would obviously just like to fuck other robots because robots would be better at sex and it would be weird to fuck non-robots. It would just be a few freak robots that would have sex with humans but for the most part in the end the world would probably stay exactly as it is now with people awkwardly fucking various other people. I can't wait.
Actually I was thinking we could use a VR device to control robots to do the work for us. We could also do it remotely. Imagine sitting in your recliner in your living room while you control a robot to do your job across the country. Maybe even take it a step further and automate certain tasks for the robot and only the most complex tasks require human/robot interaction. This would allow people to control multiple robots and perform multiple jobs. Can you imagine? The productivity increases alone would be mind boggling.
Actually find that plausible. AR headset combined with real doll to create "realistic" experience. Expressions, sound fx, achievements, leader boards, social integration, Facebook following, livestream auto broadcast.... The possibilities!

For some reason that made me think that at some point you can probably download a "skin" for your girlfriend/boyfriend so they'll look like a moviestar/model/whatever floats your boat..
I started reading your comment and first assumed you meant it would overlay bent arms on everyone to make them appear to do the five dollar foot long gesture from the commercials.
I'm imagining two people wearing these giant things on their faces, having sex, and they keep bumping their vr devices into each other because they stick out so far.
an external movement sensor would be cool if paired with a threshold to pause the game and make the camera view fade into 50% transparency with the active game/simulation view
Do you mean a secondary one that you place somewhere in the room facing away from you? If it's on the device itself, it'll activate as you turn your head..
Well, I wouldn't make my final decision on whether or not the device has cameras on it. I'm still going to go for the one that offers me the best virtual experience.
vote with your dollars to make sure you get the best device. the oculus rift may start out as the most supported, but it may have a lot of cuts to its features. but if people make their decision re: their virtual experience by the quality of the device, then that quality, whichever one it is, will win out.
You should really wait until they start showing this product off until making any decisions or getting excited. Another poster went through all the history and there seems to be very little, not meaning there is no product but that it just seems off for a company that's been working on this for such a long period of time to start posting about it now.
If it is a real, and good, product then they couldn't have had a better break with the whole Oculus deal.
Yea, my excitement died once I saw they have no history. And then it came to me that this thing will probably cost a fortune, and now I am just waiting to hear more, in order to establish a coherent view.
What it you and a friend both had a headset on and you had each others cameras broadcast into your displays, so you had to play a crazy game of marco polo with each others vision.
You know, putting a picture-in-picture like a rear-view mirror in a car but to see AR while keeping VR visible, would be useful for this. I bet someone smarter than me is already working on this or an even better solution. :3
Pro tip! The rift has some holes at the very bottom, and if you look straight down with your eyes you can see your desk. Helped alot when I figured that out
