Oculus co-founder: “Free is still not cheap enough” for current VR tech
Hardware, software, interface need to improve before VR hits mass-market levels.
"All that said, Luckey isn't worried that these problems will always hold back what he still calls a "reasonable candidate for most important technology of the century." Even assuming "moderate technological advancement compounded over decades," Luckey says improvements in hardware, content, and interface will eventually lead to VR's "inevitable dominance as the final platform." He urges those in the space to work at making those improvements more quickly, rather than spending money on "forced marketing to segments of the world that are not yet ready to embrace VR."
- well.. just as e-book sales are stagnant, because we like the analogue nature of books, same with mp3 and vinyl...shapesalad
- it'll be the same with VR. It'll reach it's full market potential, but there'll still be flat screen based computing - laptops, etc.shapesalad
- I would rather work at a screen all day, be able to look away etc, than be wearing a VR thing, tied to it all day, messing my hair up.shapesalad
