EXPERIENCE THE WORLD AS JESUS-KUN!

With this breakthrough in connecting the sense of touch, other senses may eventually be tied in, resulting in total immersion into the virtual world. Along with recent developments in VR by flagship companies such as Micsrosoft, we may be nearing the age of Virtual Immersion at last!

MS are doing AR, not VR.

You assume I'm talking about the Holo-lens, but no, I was actually referencing their experiments in using Project Natal more effectively with VR coponents.

Is this how anime becomes real?

Natal is Kinect.

Natal is Kinect.

Yeah, but that name is STUPID

I also sometimes still call the Xbone Durango

I'd hardly call Kinect a VR device. It's a glorified webcam.

The software is more important than the hardware, which could revolutionise VR if applied correctly.

But Money$oft will find a way to fuck it up, I'm sure.

The ability to track motions and react to them accordingly, coupled with sensors that are being used in reactive prosthetics to replace the camera input, with a nice pair of goggles that fills your entire field of view and the ability to feel the virtual objects around you? It has serious potential.

I was more talking about what it currently is and not what it has potential to be
