It’s been a long time since Stephen King’s The Lawnmower Man‘s film adaptation and similar titles with virtual reality at its center “graced” our screens. It’s been even longer since corporations like Disney started tech demonstrations for the public at its EPCOT park of very early virtual reality headsets.
It’s now 2024, a little more than 15 years after commercial market tiptoes by companies. It’s been a bit longer than a decade since Palmer Luckey fired up the Kickstarter that ultimately generated $2.5 million for the Oculus headset and ended up in a buy by then-Facebook for $2 billion two years later.
