MAX to open ‘VR experience’ centers worldwide and develop its own VR camera

I saw this coming and at least in my mind it makes total sense. I think StarVR is also going in the direction of 'public space VR'

    that vr crap again...if virtual reality means - looking around and thats it..lame..thats not a virtual reality..btw i dont think that all those vr 360 cameras can shoot in 3d..its physically impossible. lenses just cant converge all around 360. only in small portion.. just another hype in 21st century. nothing else.

    what the F are you talking about?

    yeah VR is not about just looking around but feel free to not have a clue if you like

    and the next time you go to a movie think about all that 'just looking around' you are doing
