There are at least two dozen movies already available
(Mirror Daily, United States) – In case you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to be a porn star, Naughty America is already releasing porn content for VR, and can be experienced on the Samsung Gear VR and upcoming Oculus Rift. It’s unsurprising that the adult-oriented industry will take a piece of virtual reality. Truly, everyone has seen this coming.
Technology is a wonderful thing, and we are on the precipice of a new era. It’s a time when gaming and cinematic experiences will revolutionize with the aid of virtual reality. Everything will get a new approach, an interesting way of interacting, and immersing experiences that could never be equaled by a computer screen. The VR headsets are coming.
Naturally, porn will follow right behind it, as it always had. Dating even as far back as 1896, the industry has been at the heels of other cinematic experiences. The first erotic film debuted mere months after the famous Lumière brothers brought the world the first movie screening. Now, ahead of virtual reality, porn is still not far behind.
In fact, Naughty America announced that their 180 degree perspective VR movies are already available. The company voiced out their intent in mid 2015 and are now showing that they’re keeping to their promise. Reporters have been invited to test out a demo of their upcoming VR titles, this particular one on Samsung Gear VR. Once Oculus Rift launches, it will be available on the Facebook-owned platform as well.
Reporters strapped on the VR headset were placed directly into the middle of the action. The content set them in the shoes of a male or female porn star, depending on preference, with ‘performers’ in front of them. The stimulating action was viewed from a first-person perspective, the sight stretching down the length of their bodies in a very realistic way. Nothing around was CGI.
The heavily realistic experience provides an entirely new approach for the industry. While point of view films have certainly been available for a while, no screen will ever beat the immersive qualities of a VR headset. The user can even look around the room and change their focus… depending on what they want to watch.
The only reported downside so far was the lack of interaction. However, Naughty America stated that it will become available in the future. As the world of virtual reality evolves, they will be adding new features with each generation. For now, it’s only viewable content, which could prove to be stimulating and successful enough.
Subscription to porn VR content is already available for $24.95 per month. Naughty America boasts having two dozen movies out, with more incoming. Financial experts estimated that the VR porn industry will reach $1 billion in the next decade. Perhaps this will be the technology that will persuade people to start paying for porn content again.
