Whether it\u2019s the expansion of resources to accommodate an exploding global population or something as seemingly simple as international live audio-video broadcasting, it essentially comes back to sex. Virtual Reality technology may often appear to be concerned mostly with rendering real-world locations for remote viewing, gaming, business applications, and the rather uninspired act of watching Netflix in a virtual theater. More than any of these newly available features, the appeal of VR has consistently been sexual. The fact that leading virtual porn site <a href=\"https:\/\/vrporn.com\">VRPorn.com<\/a> can garner more monthly visitors than<a href=\"http:\/\/oculus.com\/\"> Oculus.com<\/a> should help convince any skeptics that, as is so often the case, porn is playing a huge part in the growth of this tech.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" data-src=\"https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_apex.jpg\" alt=\"Baltimore's Apex Theater plays adult movies.\" class=\"wp-image-566 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_apex.jpg 500w, https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_apex-300x200.jpg 300w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 500px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 500\/333;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" src=\"https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_apex.jpg\" alt=\"Baltimore's Apex Theater plays adult movies.\" class=\"wp-image-566\" srcset=\"https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_apex.jpg 500w, https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_apex-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Baltimore&#8217;s Apex Theater (Image: Baltimore Business Journal)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sex Breeds Tech Trends<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"538\" data-src=\"https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_virtsx.jpg\" alt=\"Adult star Jesse Jane 2003\" class=\"wp-image-582 lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 500px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 500\/538;width:317px;height:340px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_virtsx.jpg 500w, https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_virtsx-279x300.jpg 279w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"538\" src=\"https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_virtsx.jpg\" alt=\"Adult star Jesse Jane 2003\" class=\"wp-image-582\" style=\"width:317px;height:340px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_virtsx.jpg 500w, https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_virtsx-279x300.jpg 279w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Digital Playground&#8217;s Virtual Sex with Jesse Jane (2003)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>From the early days of the VHS\/Beta format wars and the global adoption of the Videocassette Recorder to DVDs allowing producers to offer viewers greater interactivity and variety \u2013 remember how impressive alternate camera angles and audio tracks once were? \u2013 the porn industry has historically pushed tech forward in major ways. The introduction of VHS tape and home players meant porn viewing experiences were no longer engaged in communally at some dingy, dirty downtown theater. Now, anyone could enjoy adult movies privately at home. The arrival of consumer-grade VCRs, of course, meant both legal and illegal duplication ran wild.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cInteractive\u201d sex DVDs saw viewers choose from various angles, positions, and acts to customize their encounter. Compared to even the more primitive VR sex fantasies, this tech seems extremely limited. (Not to mention the obvious disconnect you feel when staring at a TV screen with a remote control in your non-dominant hand\u2026) Copyright protecting Digital Rights Management (DRM) and even online video streaming also came about at least<a href=\"https:\/\/books.google.com\/books?id=2TP4AAAAQBAJ&amp;pg=PA188&amp;lpg=PA188&amp;dq=red+light+district%2Bporn%2Bdutch%2Bvideo+streaming&amp;source=bl&amp;ots=r7DlMP9gRu&amp;sig=ACfU3U1_aniiqtDjqZNgMNPQihaZdYJvBw&amp;hl=en&amp;sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwj149Sb_-LlAhUROq0KHTOvDwcQ6AEwAHoECAkQAQ#v=onepage&amp;q=red%20light%20district%2Bporn%2Bdutch%2Bvideo%20streaming&amp;f=false\"> partly because of porn<\/a>, the latter an innovation claimed by Dutch adult studio, Red Light District.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Virtual Lover IRL<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first post-2010 wave of <a href=\"https:\/\/vrnsfw.com\/studios\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">virtual porn studio<\/a> successes made it clear that a revolution was taking place. Committing to the continued development of their VR programs, such studios as Naughty America and BaDoink unveiled their attempts at bringing together the sexual fantasies of their fans and cutting edge VR tech. Also, maintaining an AR (Augmented Reality) program despite shifting interest, Naughty America offers fans holographic performers that can be placed in a real location to dance, strip, and seduce a viewer. While to some, this may seem a bit limited, it did push the idea that VR doesn\u2019t need to be such a huge commitment for viewers. Instead of isolating yourself in a VR headset and detaching completely from reality, Naughty America\u2019s \u201cholograms\u201d turn your actual living room into a virtual strip club. What\u2019s more, anyone with a smartphone, Google Cardboard (or an equivalent), and a strong libido can get in on the fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"390\" data-src=\"https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_naar-1024x390.jpg\" alt=\"Naughty America AR\" class=\"wp-image-581 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_naar-1024x390.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_naar-300x114.jpg 300w, https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_naar-768x293.jpg 768w, https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_naar-1536x585.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_naar.jpg 1548w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/390;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"390\" src=\"https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_naar-1024x390.jpg\" alt=\"Naughty America AR\" class=\"wp-image-581\" srcset=\"https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_naar-1024x390.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_naar-300x114.jpg 300w, https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_naar-768x293.jpg 768w, https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_naar-1536x585.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_naar.jpg 1548w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Naughty America&#8217;s AR efforts on display.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The transition of porn from an objectified experience to a more subjective encounter has created opportunities for all kinds of devices and tools and toys. More importantly, though, it will personalize the virtual sex experience to a remarkable degree. Data gathering and analysis won\u2019t just help tailor porn to individual preferences; it will further aid all kinds of content targeted to audiences in similar ways. Though this is already happening &#8211; when was the last time you made an online purchase free from subtle influence or overt prompting? &#8211; the essential intimacy of sex will demand serious attempts at capturing a real sense of physical presence, and that means listening to what users are saying.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Unwired, Undressed, Unreal<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-src=\"https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_haptics-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Haptic feedback in VR\" class=\"wp-image-570 lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/576;width:212px;height:119px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_haptics-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_haptics-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_haptics-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_haptics-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_haptics.jpg 1920w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_haptics-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Haptic feedback in VR\" class=\"wp-image-570\" style=\"width:212px;height:119px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_haptics-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_haptics-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_haptics-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_haptics-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/virtualrealityobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/pnvr_haptics.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Haptic feedback is essential to advancing VR and VR porn both.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As VR devices continue to get smaller, more affordable, and more ubiquitous among all classes of consumers, and as hardware sales race towards the eight million-unit mark, more consumers of all kinds of media will be turning to VR. Porn, however, is already well and truly immersed in Virtual Reality. And with haptic devices, advanced full-body tracking systems, and VR systems requiring little to no wired connection, all adding to a less restricted virtual experience. There\u2019s every reason to expect the bridging of the physical and the virtual will have consumers once again using it for sexual gratification. Of course, it doesn\u2019t hurt that the primary customer demographic for both porn and virtual reality is the same: males aged 20-40.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s on the VR Horizon?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The social thrust of many recent VR and porn advancements is no coincidence, nor is it Facebook\u2019s doing.

While Facebook is still aiming to advertise and Microsoft seems to care largely about industrial and business applications, the next waves of advanced VR are being pushed by something we all share: human sexual desire.<br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It has long been believed that sex drives commercial, technological, and societal progress about as much as any other human<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":577,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,6],"tags":[56,17],"class_list":["post-564","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-technology","tag-vr-new-technology","tag-vr-porn"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 -
