Whether you like it or not, VR is here and porn will be a large part of it. That’s not to say the technology will only be used for adult entertainment, but everyone is curious to see how it will affect the landscape. Devices like Oculus Rift and Google Cardboard will be used in conjunction with virtual reality pornography. It will be interesting to see how this affects adult entertainment sites like Pornhub and Youporn in the future.
PORN VR TO HELP GOOGLE CARDBOARD
Google Cardboard is a fine product on its own. At just $10, it will act as a cheap and effective way to introduce people into the realm of VR. However, with the help of porn, Google Cardboard’s popularity will skyrocket. We’ve seen similar things happen in the past with pornography and technology. Just look at VHS, pay-per-view, and the internet. All fine products on their own, but adult entertainment certainly boosted their popularity. This is all still very new for everyone, but with the addition of apps, sex toys and other VR additions, the experience on Google Cardboard and similar devices will only get better.
HOW IT’S MADE
As was previously mentioned, Google Cardboard and the VR porn industry are still in the beginning stages of development. For the time being, it’s better to just go to Pornhub or Youporn for your sexual desires. Footage for pornography is incredibly laborious at the moment. With the lack of technology, people have to get creative with their filming techniques. Footage has to be shot at different angles at the same time in order to account for a viewer moving his or head in any direction. Additionally, footage needs to be 60 frames per second to make it comfortable for the view. Nothing kills the sexual vibe then some motion sickness. Until the kinks are ironed out, the actual reality will remain in focus.
YOUPORN AND PORNHUB NEED TO ADAPT
While Youporn and Pornhub may be safe for now, it’s essential that they adapt for the upcoming virtual porn explosion. They’ve seen first hand how previous aspects of the industry have collapsed. YouPorn and Pornhub were actually responsible for it. By offering up free pornography, the pay movie business died off. If they want to avoid the same fate Youporn and Pornhub will have to find a way to incorporate virtual reality porn into their service. It’s not a matter of if VR will have an impact, but simply when.
