ProPutt - How To Spend Your Time In A World Gone Mad

ProPutt. Locked up in your house? Avoiding traffic and people? Trapped with your family, most of whom you have had no contact with for years? Well, now is the perfect time to dust off your VR headset, and and head to the virtual links for a round of virtual golf. What, you don't have a VR headset? Sorry, but I have been preparing for this moment for several years. With the Oculus VR headset out for a year now, and collecting virtual games and entertainment for a lot of that time, I am ready to lose myself in a virtual world where nobody dies; at least, not permanently. Enjoy your life. You only get one in the real. And, it will end. Today, I go home early, and VR golf.

FutureLawyer Takes Command Of A Starship

Last year, I bought myself an Oculus Quest VR headset, which is a marvelous bit of tech that really transports the user into another reality. This year, I purchased the Star Trek Bridge game for it, and it is amazing. Your controllers are your hands, and you actually punch buttons on the control panel, and interact with the crew. It isn't the Enterprise, but the Aegir (Copyright concerns, no doubt); but, you can really get lost in this game. I am not much of a gamer; but, the VR simulations of geographical locations, museums, and fantasy environments are a marvel to navigate in. Check out the demo to get a flavor of the game; but, you won't really get it until you put a headset on yourself. I can't wait to try this game after a couple of Jamesons.

 

Oculus Quest All-in-one VR - The Best Xmas Gift Ever

Amazon.com: Oculus Quest All-in-one VR Gaming Headset %u2013 64GB: PC: Video Games. Since I gave myself an Oculus Quest for Xmas last year, I have traveled all over the virtual world; and, while I am not a gamer, I have sampled some pretty realistic simulations that transported me out of reality for a while. I have also experienced movie theater like viewing of movies and TV. If great writing allows the reader to, for a moment, suspend their disbelief, then the Quest does the same for virtual reality. Santa Claus recommended. FutureLawyer recommended. This is a great gift for the kid in all of us. It is a bonus that these things are being used in training in all sorts of industries, and in the health fields for Doctors and patients in all settings.

Oculus Quest Gets Hand Tracking

How to enable Oculus Quest hand tracking | Android Central. I have really enjoyed the Oculus Quest virtual reality headset. I am not much of a gamer; but, I enjoy watching TV and movies in VR, and enjoy the environment simulators, and the virtual tourism stuff. The best part of the affordable VR Quest, however, is the freedom not to be tethered to a cable and to be able to walk around. Up until now, this was somewhat limited because the hands were restricted to choosing options on screen. But, Oculus keeps improving the software, and I am looking forward to true hand tracking inside the simulators. Want to escape your reality for a few minutes? Get a Quest. Sorry, you can't use mine. I had my prescription lenses made to insert in the Quest. See you in the next reality.

WalMart Uses Oculus Go VR In Training

Walmart Expands VR Training with Oculus Go | Oculus. I have often speculated about the use of VR in professional scenarios. The glasses are able to create realistic alternate realities, and thus are uniquely positioned to provide training environments for all sorts of classrooms. WalMart is now using them to train employees in the situations they may face at work, and I think they are ideally suited to training law students and lawyers as well. While my Oculus Go glasses are used primarily for scenic wandering and some of the tamer video games, I am always thinking about other uses. I have long wanted to fly airplanes, and the simulations available are really fun. What uses can you imagine VR glasses for?

Does Virtual Reality Have A Place In The Courtroom?

The future of virtual reality in law %u2013 does VR technology have a place in the courtroom? | LinkedIn. While my Oculus Quest is the latest and greatest addition to my VR collection, it is natural to ask whether these things can be used in a law practice. As this article points out, crime scene rendering and viewing, group attendance at trials and depositions, and other law related activities could be greatly enhanced by the ability to move around and see in 360 degrees. But, the technology isn't quite there yet, as VR motion sickness, expensive head sets, and other problems still plague the VR industry. The future, however, looks bright, and you can expect to see legal uses of VR soon.

VR MovieMaking - The Lion King Lives Again

Disney%u2019s New %u2018Lion King%u2019 Is the VR-Fueled Future of Cinema | WIRED. We spend a pleasant time yesterday watching the grandkids get introduced to VR through my new Oculus Quest headset and controllers. They were immersed in using light sabers to punch out and slash virtual targets in a virtual world. When the new Lion King movie comes out, it will have been created with a combination of live action and virtual cameras and equipment controlled by cameramen and directors wearing similar headsets and moving the equipment around a virtual world to get the perfect shot. Human ability to move around in a virtual fantasy world is changing the way we are entertained, just as it has changed the way Doctors operate, industries create, and the future is limitless.

Get Your Covert Ops Hat On - Oculus Quest Is Here

I don't expect to get much work done this afternoon, as my Oculus Quest is on an Amazon truck on its way today. It is impossible to describe a virtual reality experience in 2D. But, this review will give some of the flavor.
