The future of VR

Virtual Reality refers to a human-computer interaction. People can wear glasses or helmets in the film, and have more feelings in a limited field of view and space, perhaps not limited to audio-visual.

In actual operation, VR is widely used, and most of the games that we can contact in our real life are games. For example, when we see a person wearing VR glasses in a shopping mall and then he seems to be possessed by A Piao in the legend and beats him. In fact, he may be playing Gun game.

Last year, she came into contact with the sales of a VR glasses company, and she honestly told the truth of the market: so far, the VR market has great demand and good prospects, but the technology is holding back. That is to say, the salesman is trying his best to introduce VR glasses to customers. In fact, the demand achieved by the technology is only 10%, or even less.

If one day, VR technology can achieve as described in the film, or in the near future, do you need to consider some very real issues before bringing it to the market: (Only discussing games)

1. Human psychology is a mystery, at least not fully explored at present. There are no identical leaves and no two identical people. Even if the data analyzes many non-verbal responses, such as guessing people's inner activities through facial expressions, eye movements, etc., it cannot take into account all situations. In the VR operation, how does VR judge the reaction of the people in the game? Since VR is virtual reality, it must be a very realistic reality. How to grasp the degree of horror games, and will it hurt or stimulate players?

2. Are VR games safe? This is also a question in this play, whether being used by someone with a heart will endanger the life of the player. The future development is not impossible. Program settings, hackers... etc. If you look forward, everything is possible. So how does the government control it? Who is responsible for the risk?

The above two questions can actually be combined into one question, that is, if VR technology is mature, how to define and consider security issues. Now VR is facing a more practical problem, which is the market reality of VR glasses sales: the technology can't keep up with demand.

If VR technology develops and matures, and the stand-alone RPG games like Legend of Sword and Fairy used to use the keyboard to control the protagonist, now you can become the protagonist. The interaction between people also happens in the virtual world. You can meet friends on the other side of the world to go shopping, go fishing in the Pacific Ocean... It's like writing fantasy essays when you were a child. I didn't want to be a scientist when I was a kid.

But whether the communication in the virtual world can replace face-to-face contact is also a problem. But although I don't think the technology can reach the real human touch, who can say for future development. Maybe the words "don't live in fantasy all the time" are not ironic and become routine. But at that time, there was a new round of safety issues. For example, if you were hit by a car in a virtual scene, would your real person be injured? After all, if you want to simulate the real touch, how to follow up technically? Another example is how does VR judge that you are in danger? ...all very boring but practical questions.

VR is very popular in the investment world, but in fact the experience is very poor. Wearing VR glasses for a long time will make you dizzy and nauseated. My first reaction to foaming at the mouth in the video is not that there is a problem with the helmet, but that it will become worse after wearing it for a long time. Halo, like 3D glasses. Facebook bought Oculus (the VR headset) for $2-3 billion, so everyone rushed to it, but it wasn't a great start because the sales weren't really great. This kind of conceptual problem is cyclical in the investment world, not just VR. I am afraid that these investors only want to make money and do not consider social issues.

Returning to the film, I think that since it is science fiction, please be bold and come up with something new. These are not particularly new. The film explores human nature under the guise of science fiction, and it doesn't do much.
