Dude's enjoying BDs on public

[–] Potatisen@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago (3 children)

BDs?

Brain dances, like movies but your brain "lives" the experience, cyberpunk stuff, choom

Oh, wow! I've always wanted to do them.

My folks just don't understand mountain biking and there's so many applications where conveying ones experience would be significant.

I know it's just a game, but maybe I should try it out...

Blueberry documentary.
Pretty interesting stuff, actually.

Didn't think WALL-E would start so soon

Steve Mann invented probably the first mediated reality device, the EyeTap, in 1984. Of course, it was a freaking CRT and mirror array strapped to your head, but one of the original proposed use cases was to remap advertising billboards into whatever you wanted. Fast forward 40 years and we're using the same concept to beam ads directly into your eyeballs.

[–] noisypine@infosec.pub 5 points 9 months ago

Covering IRL advertisements is the only thing that interests me with this sort of tech. I would love to cover billboards with random memes or even just erase them. THAT would be a reason worth looking goofy as hell for.

Like this, sort of

Gotta say, still seems awkward using it in public.

[–] Opisek@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

Gotta, say, the barrier between you and other people by having a headset obscure most of your face, sure feels strange, as far as human interactions go. They really haven't innovated at all in that regard, despite the promises of the virtual eyes at the front. I can't see the technology becoming ubiquitous in daily life, until it's nearly seamless.

[–] perishthethought@lemm.ee 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Same, same. Except I can't imagine that virtual eye thing ever being seamless.

[–] Opisek@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Oh yeah, no, I don't think anything virtual will ever make a conversation with a headset on seem natural. The best form factor I can picture is some sort of smart glasses, smart contact lenses, etc. Basically, as little obstruction as possible. Doubt it will happen anytime soon, though it is a shame development was stalled after Google Glasses' flop.

Looks Perfect XD

[–] ExLisper@linux.community 2 points 9 months ago

All I took out from this is the FOV is so bad it's really awkward to move around.

[–] werefreeatlast@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

I will try to not use those things if I can. Maybe they become the new stereograph display visor thing that never took off.
