Apple showed some incredible technology this morning and it feels really weird to have no desire to own it.

@chockenberry But I realize that I left out the iPad.

When the iPad first came out, I said, "Huh. Not for me.”

But *now*, in 2023, it is my primary mobile computer.

So maybe that's what this will become? In 10 years?

Was there any mention of overcoming VAC? I didn't see anything in the summaries I've read so far. If they don't have a good solution for VAC they don't have a product for me. When I was an intern building VR apps if I was in a headset for too long I got super motion sick and my vision would be wonky for quite a while afterwords. I'm not sensitive to motion generally so I i chalk it up to the eye/brain strain rather than just the conflicting motion information.

@affekt @chockenberry I'm *somewhat* susceptible to motion sickness-- I could only do the original PSVR1 for about 20 minutes at a time until I needed a break.

The PSVR2, I can go for a full hour.

They *did* make a big point of adding a new chip that is used for all of the “reality" stuff, something something lag something...

If the resolution is high enough and the lag is low enough, I think *most* people could tolerate it, but... no idea.

Yeah I think most people are probably ok, I just know I'm extra sensitive to the hardest thing to fix. Resolution and lag can always be overcome by better processors and displays. Vergence accomodation conflict is a much harder nut to crack and I'm pretty sure that's what ruins it for me.

@affekt Oh, I was not aware what VAC is! Thanks for letting me know, I'm looking it up now!
