The Vision Pro is Apple’s new $3,500 virtual reality headset.
Since its debut in February, users have found new ways to use this latest iteration of a decades-old technology: scrolling TikTok at work, driving Tesla’s Cybertruck, recording their kid’s birth.
But can VR truly integrate into our daily lives? Or will it forever remain a niche technology for geeks and gamers?
Endless Thread dives into the history of VR and its potential for the future.
As much time as people spend on screens now, yes it’ll be like second nature eventually.
Edit: When it doesn’t have to be worn on you face, and can just be projected… it’ll be everywhere.
We already have screens everywhere. That’s now. VR doesn’t bring anything to the table besides disproportionate cost and motion sickness. Even Tony Stark only wore his VR/AI agent glasses when he needed them, and they were closer to magic than current science.
VR is neat and fun, and it’s not going away, but it will never be something everyone wears every day.
