VIRTUAL REALITY
@thatpatrickguy
@thatpatrickguy
THE NEXT MEDIUM?
@thatpatrickguy
People don’t want to lug a computer with them to the beach or on a train to while away
hours they would rather spend reading the sports or business section of the newspaper. Somehow, the microcomputer industry has
assumed that everyone would love to have a keyboard grafted on as an extension of their
fingers. It just is not so …
- New York Times, 1985

@thatpatrickguy
The truth [is] no online database will replace your daily newspaper, no CD-ROM can take the place of a competent teacher and no computer network
will change the way government works. …
Yet Nicholas Negroponte, director of the MIT Media Lab, predicts that we’ll soon buy books and
newspapers straight over the Internet. Uh, sure.
- Clifford Stoll, Newsweek, 1995

theaters”

“[Television] won’t be able to hold on to any market it captures after the first six months. People will soon get tired of staring at a
plywood box every night.”

1I’ve never heard of it.
@thatpatrickguy
2I’ve heard of it but don’t
understand it.
@thatpatrickguy
3I understand it, but I don’t see how it’s useful.
@thatpatrickguy
4I see how it could be fun for rich
people, but not me.
@thatpatrickguy
5I use it, but it’s just a toy.
@thatpatrickguy
6It’s becoming more useful for
me.
@thatpatrickguy
7I use it all the time.
@thatpatrickguy
8I could not imagine life without it.
@thatpatrickguy
9Seriously, people lived without it?

“I just tried HTC’s virtual reality headset Vive, and I’m certain
we’re on the precipice of a major change in computing. This is
going to change the world as we know it. Really.”

I in no way think that VR is going to be like 3DTV. It’s already too far along and
you see so much investment from all of the major players
- Kelly Alfieri — The New York Times’ VR Team

@thatpatrickguy
The first half of 2016 alone saw $1.3 billion invested in
VR.
- 2016 report by IAB
@thatpatrickguy
It’s expected that 24 months from now, we’ll have a much better understanding of the four or five key use cases around how and why consumers will use VR, versus what they do on their phones,
iPads, TVs, and everything else.

Why WebVR?
@thatpatrickguy
No app install. No app store
ecosystem drama.
@thatpatrickguy
Distribute your content direct to your audience.
@thatpatrickguy
It’s free to build with and open-
source.
@thatpatrickguy
Headset agnostic means a wider
audience.
@thatpatrickguy
Pairing WebVR with the IoT has HUGE potential!
