VR Is Not Going to Disappear Anytime Soon, Here’s Why

Many people in tech community were concerned, after this year’s Consumer Electronics Show (CES), that VR needs it’s killer app to exist any further or it will lose it’s charm and fade away. Ian Bell, CEO of Digital Trends, in a DigiDay article stated, “We see technologies that are always on the precipice, but if they don’t hurry and add intrinsic value, the consumer is going to move on. VR is in that space. People right now look at it and say it’s cool but it’s also kind of gimmicky. Unless someone steps up and makes VR relevant, people will move on.”


Well, I don’t wholly agree that VR will “disappear” without killer app. But yes, it needs to improve for people to buy it on a large scale. For VR is itself a killer app and that it doesn’t need one in order to stand out.

Why people are confused, is because they might not really get the difference between a medium and a feature. Since Oculus was founded, VR has already increased its user base every year. At least 4 or 5 years are still required for VR to reach a billion of users.

The only way to understand how VR is itself a killer app is to experience it yourself. It’s not another step after 3D.

Unlike augmented reality, which you might have used if you use Snapchat’s video filters like face swap or rainbow vomits, VR unplugs you from reality and that’s what is best about it.

VR gives benefits to specific verticals, such as industry, furniture. Consumers can view couches, tables and other items placed in a virtual room in order to get the better idea of how they’ll actually look in their own houses. Not only this, they can also customize the products by changing sizes and colors which are just a purchase away.

So yes, there are many reasons why VR is “not” going to disappear anytime soon, in fact its user base will only grow more by the time.
If you haven’t tried VR, I recommend you to do so, and you’ll see by yourself.

Looking for Alaska Book Review

- The obsession of Miles with last words made me believe that a person's last words do have some kind of meaning. Alaska Young, always being moody, self-destructive, rebellious, reckless somehow finding distractions from her inner struggles & always looking for a way out of the labyrinth. Her death was tragic indeed. She left many mysteries behind. - The love that Miles had for Alaska made it more worse for him to forget that he let her go alone that night, drunk & messed up. Alaska truly didn't find her way out of the labyrinth but she did write it 'Straight & fast'. 'If people were rain, I was drizzle & she was a hurricane' - John Green ❤

October - A Slam

For ladies out there, all young and old age For fighter s out there, all ready to show grace For victims out there, fading at snail’s pace October , dear October be a blessing for the braves My mother was a beauty , brown hairs black eyes From head to toe, an example of how to live a life When she fell ill, I thought it was ordinary But the doctors concluded what put me through hell I’ve always admired the way she tied Her long hairs in a pretty French braid Then one day she started to hide under scarfs I was sad , so sad , to see her this bald I cried every night when I heard her threw up Couldn’t tell she was same Cause she gained weight too much I stood deadpan in hallway of hospital The night she lost all her potential It was October , yes October I prayed and prayed October , dear October be a blessing for the braves "Dedicated to all victims and survivors of breast cancer."

An Open Letter To All Teenagers Out There

Dear teenagers, What I am about to tell you guys is a bitter pill to swallow but is inevitable. You cannot run from it or hide from it so it's better that, when it comes, you're ready to welcome it with open arms and when it leaves; you get up, open the door, and wave it a warm, friendly goodbye. A time is coming really soon when you'll have to worry about a billion of things. When you'll feel tired, and exhausted all the time with out even having a busy or hectic day. You'll see sun rising and setting from your bedroom window whilst you wish to not to leave your room, or even your house for a very, very long time. You'll witness people leaving you for good, and new ones coming, but they too, for until you're of any use to them. There will be breakups, and distances building among your happiest of relations. Soon you'll start to worry about some stupid research paper and assignments. You'll be ditched, cheated, manipulated, and used by humans; ...
