A Glimpse at Our Future? Virtual Reality might be closer than you think

This Mark Zuckerbergs Virtual Reality photo really makes you think Look closely. Tell me, what do you see? Simply a room full of techies, a tech conference maybe? Look closer. There is much more in this picture to be seen. This photo has been taken at the MWC 2016 and it depicts Mark Zuckerberg...

VR Era is just around the corner (heck, Oculus Rift is launching by the end of March), but I doubt we'll see something like Bruce Willis's Surrogates any time soon.

Maybe not any time soon but i can already picture big companies offering "a better life" to the unfortunate through virtual reality. We'll just have to wait and see.

I could see it too, but what VR is lacking is stimulation of other senses other than sight and hearing. Could true immersion work without them? Probably for the most desperate ones.

Yes, personally for the disabled I'd like to see medical advances that would allow them to lead better lives. But if all else fails, hook them up to the Matrix already!

Zuckerberg didn't say that VR woluld replace viewing the experience he was making the point that it would be the next way to record and replay the experience in VR. Thus the next step from recording a 2D video of the event.

Addictions are always a problem and in this case, a very serious one..
