I suspect VR porn will be a huge driver of this technology. The porn industry both has the money and the desire to push the envelope into new offerings.

I wouldn't be surprised if pornhub invests in VR in some way in the next 5-10 years.

There's already a "pornhub" for VR called sexlikereal. You can watch videos and even connect toys that are synchronised with the video. The platform seems to be getting pretty big and even produces some of their own videos.

PS explaining for a friend XD

Yeah, while most people will avoid this conversation - they were huge innovators in early eCommerce, and it's an obvious use case.

But there are also other super exciting applications like dating e.g. a dating app facilitates the first date in VR and is able to provide safety controls making first-dates far more approachable and happen earlier on leading to more successful relationships.

Well, if you think about it, they were a huge driver for the web, so that would be just continuing the trend :-)
