The recent explosion in the popularity of virtual reality has turned the entertainment and business worlds on their respective heads. Virtual reality was invented in 1957 by Morton Hellig who called his invention the Sensorama. The term ‘virtual reality’ didn’t come around until it was coined by Jaron Lanier in 1987. Early VR had poor video quality, limited interactivity, and very little content. In the early 2000s, companies started experimenting with virtual reality in different forms. Google released its Street View technology in 2007 then the 3D version of Street View in 2010. In 2012 Palmer Luckey, an 18-year-old entrepreneur designed the first prototype of the Oculus Rift VR headset and formally launched it with a successful Kickstarter campaign. Since then, just about every major tech company from Google to Facebook and Microsoft has invested heavily in VR technology. One of the first industries to take advantage of this new technology was the adult entertainment industry using it to create compelling, interactive VR porn.
One of the primary advantages of virtual reality is that it can provide a completely immersive experience. This means that you can forget that you’re even somewhere else, and you can really get lost in the movie. This is great for those who want to escape from their everyday lives, or for those who want to learn more about specific topics without having to go through an actual classroom setting.
VR Porn Changed the Adult Industry
The adult entertainment industry has always been one to quickly adapt to and use new technology. They were among the first to adapt video streaming and to use live cam technology. It is no surprise that the adult industry has fully embraced virtual reality and has used it to create some very compelling content.
The first adult VR videos were pretty basic. They were mostly videos shot with regular cameras and then adapted to work in VR. It didn’t take long before VR camera equipment improved and producers/directors/performers learned the nuances of using it, greatly improving the technical quality, interactivity, and erotic nature of the videos.
Most of the major porn production companies are now putting a fair amount of their budget into shooting VR content. In some cases, they have completely abandoned traditional video shoots and now exclusively shoot VR. These new adult VR videos feature 360 degrees viewing, digital sound, and 4K video quality that brings the action to life in crystal clarity. With performers that know how to make the scene very intimate and personal, they create a sense of full immersion. Gone are the days of just watching a video. Now you can experience it.
VR has been used in the porn industry for years, but it’s only recently become more affordable and accessible. The main reasons for this are the improvements in hardware and software technology. Hardware manufacturers have started making more powerful VR headsets, while software developers have created new VR applications that are much easier to use.
The benefits of using VR in the porn industry are clear: it’s an incredibly immersive experience that can turn someone on even more than regular pornography. It also allows producers to create scenes that wouldn’t be possible with any other type of media. For instance, one producer used VR to create a scene where the user was actually inside a volcano!
There are some potential drawbacks to using VR in the porn industry, however. One issue is that it can be difficult for viewers to get into the mood if they’re not familiar with VR technology. Additionally, there’s always a risk that people will feel too exposed when using VR due to its interactive nature. However, these limitations could eventually be overcome as both hardware and software technologies continue to improve.
The newest step in the adult world is using VR for live webcam chatting. Interactive webcam shows have been around for a while. However, using VR, a person can feel like they are right there in the room with the cam model. They can look wherever they want, focus on any part of the performer’s body they want, and allow the performer to interact with them. It is taking webcam shows to a whole new level.
VR and Interactive Sex Toys

Also getting in on the increased VR interest are several different sex toy manufacturers. These companies are creating products that you can connect directly to your VR viewer or computer and they synch with the video you are experiencing. The toy moves on its own, matching the action in the video, taking the VR experience to a whole new level of realism.
There are non-adult companies that are making VR bodysuits that stimulate your entire body, reacting to the game or video you are playing. As the technology continues to advance the experience becomes more and more realistic and immersive. It won’t be long before there is wearable tech that simulates real touch with incredible accuracy.
Getting Started with Virtual Reality
Before you can start using virtual reality, you’ll need to set up your own system. Here’s what you need:
1) A headset – This is the most important part of your virtual reality setup, and it’s essential that you get a good one. You can find headsets that are designed specifically for use with VR systems, or you can use any old headset that supports glasses/contact viewing. The important thing is to make sure that the headset has an adjustable head strap so that it fits comfortably on your head.
2) A computer – Your VR system requires a powerful computer to run properly. You don’t need anything fancy – just enough CPU power and memory (usually at least 8GB). If you want to use special features or applications specific to virtual reality software, however, you may need more CPU power or memory. Check your computer manufacturer’s website for information on recommended specs for running virtual reality applications.
