With AR/MR devices on the way, what are some use cases you can envision for the technology?
General: - see through walls, see in infrared or with zoom, recording, etc. - get contextual information about all the objects around you - translation/subtitles in real time - adblock in real life - screens anywhere/everywhere - augmented reality directions - tooltips for instruments, tools, etc. - fashion - try on clothes, shoes, makeup, etc. - literally *see* where rf-tagged objects are located in your home - remote/phone/keys/etc. - identify nutritional qualities of food - assist with sports/exercise
Health/psychology: - schizophrenia - you can now see what is real/fake - assist communication disorders with eye tracking (stephen hawking / cerebral palsy)
Ads everywhere that you can't prove you saw, allowing them to give you targeted specific instructions, or tell you things about people around you that they know will set you off.

Name me one VR heatset you can install an adblocker on. Also, you can't block someone else's ads.

This board does not care about technology

Trannies and potential trannies are already using VR to get the virtual experience of being a girl, like in VRChat. That's a pretty good usecase.
Joshua Martinez
Isn't that already possible if you're using your computer in private? Doesn't seem like a huge change.
Ian Morris
fuck off fagman headset experience designer you can't have my ideas
>every school kid wears ar glasses for class >they can no longer goof around and cause disruption in class
teachers should be racing to get this implemented

4channel supports advertisements and the average humans sees a thousand ads per day

>implying they wouldn't all just be playing fortnite What, would they have to wear the shitty school-approved AR device that forces them to focus? Lay off the dystopian sci-fi novels, buddy.
Adam Walker
How would it help a skitzo at all, if anything your giving them an entire new reality in which they question. I feel like vr would make it even worse.
Owen Brooks
>would they have to wear the shitty school-approved AR device that forces them to focus
Exactly
Adam Bennett
>hear voices in vr/ar >see things in vr/ar
>wow this is a spooky game/environment! haha

Maybe it doesn't help for them to know what is a hallucination, but you could easily use computer vision to highlight what is real
