Couple of years ago, we witnessed a trend of “cutting the cord”, i.e. canceling the cable subscription in the United States. We started development using Oculus Development Kits (DK1), and our breakthrough came when we started to show our code on DK2’s with different business leads. That I was crazy. Or is it still an ‘uncanny valley’?
