I am in the lobby of a theater right now, waiting to see a play. Fortunately, it doesn’t bother the ushers that I am sitting in a corner typing away on my computer while I wait for the house to open.
My recent experience with the Meta Quest 3 has gotten me thinking: Imagine live theater with every audience member wearing XR glasses. The computer would not replace the live performance, but would rather provide scenery and lighting cues and special effects that complement the actors’ performances.
What would that be like? I guess the best way to find out would be like is to try it.
Maybe I will do just that. 🙂
