These are so integral to the world of RPO that every time we see a character wear a head-mounted display (HMD), he or she also wears a pair of VR gloves. With Oculus Go arriving in early 2018 and HTC Vive an official partner of RPO, headset-makers see a huge upside, regardless of whether the movie is commercially successful.

It was a device that the user sat in-front of while their head was encased on four sides by a screen and they watched any one of five films, which all engaged sight, sound, smell and touch.

Just a few years ago I found the Oculus meeting room hidden in a corner of the show floor where they were showing the HD prototype of the Rift featuring improved resolution.

VR also dominated the pop culture, featuring prominently in films like “Johnny Mnemonic,” “Lawnmower Man” and “Virtuosity.” It’s easy to see how, in the early 1960s, such a system could be viewed as a logical next step beyond the film and television of the day.

This frontier state is radically different from modern game and film graphics. We cover a wide domain of applications, including self-driving cars, robotics, and game and film graphics. But first, to put them and our vision for future AR/VR systems in context, let’s examine how current film, game, and modern VR systems work.

One day, we will all regularly consume media through head mounted displays, just as we all watch television today. Because of their input, a single DVD was capable of holding 95 minutes of footage (encompassing the runtime of 90% of films) all for a retail price under $20. It’s not a passing fad but an eventuality.

The idea is that, as soon as we identified VR was coming — this was before the Oculus acquisition by Facebook — it was clear that one part of VR would be computer-generated experiences, games being the major example.
