Why do you need VR for that?

Currently what you describe isn't possible due to the insane amount of processing power and storage required to do that. Multiple camera angles x all space x all time.

There are also social consequences with this technology. I recommend watching the Black Mirror TV miniseries, episode "The Entire History of You". If you can see everything everyone said, then forgetting mistakes in a relationship is not possible.

You already have women for that :p

But true, it will be a while before open air folk museums are replaced by VR.

This sounds cool, but I suggest working on your formatting. That OP is gross.



I bet the Wii U would sell more than 15M LTD by the end of 2015. He bet it would sell less. I lost.

Yes.. but not really the same.

A virtual tour is not either.. A virtual tour is only one unspecific point in time.. and (as fare as I know) recorded in 360 view.

In this "setup" it's not only a (moving) 360 cam where you can look around.. but more cams placed in a room combined to make it a 100% true VR experinces.. so you can look from all angels and move totally free in it.. (And offcourse also free in time)

Yeah its the same as looking at pictures, just more fancy. You cant interact with anything, just look what has been recorded.

Really not a good thread bro, I think you should look up what time travel actually means.

A picture is static.. if anything its like looking at a fancy video (if you by "fancy" mean actully being in the video.. being totally surrounded by it.. like you are there.. and able to move auround)

And you should look in the OP what I mean by "digital timetravel"

.... just saw this game for oculus, vive and psvr.. "Time machine VR"  a bit like same princip (offcourse animated instead of recorded)
