Today I asked the students in my VR class what they would want for future virtual reality or mixed reality devices. A lively discussion ensued, and they had many cool ideas.
But one theme emerged above all else: What they really want is not more power, but rather more social integration. They would rather have a true mixed reality device that looks like an ordinary pair of glasses, even if the graphical display is not perfect, than an ever more powerful yet clunky headset.
That makes sense to me as well. Technology that is actually used by millions of people is better than technology that is only used by a chosen few.
