For years, sex and tech journalists have been going on about the rise of VR porn and the very real possibility of sex robots becoming a reality. In our documentary The Digital Love Industry, we found that their predictions were right: not only has the technology around virtual reality porn reached an impressive level, but a surprisingly large number of people are already using VR machines for sexual purposes.
Thing is, it all seemed a bit far off; the equipment was expensive and cumbersome, and hardly accessible to the majority of masturbators.
However, this week, that all changed: PornHub announced that they've teamed up with BaDoinkVR to launch virtual reality porn that works with phones and headsets. They've done a bit of a soft launch already, but apparently once it's all properly up and running you'll not only be immersed in a film, but also able to interact with your favourite stars.
To mark the launch, PornHub is giving away 10,000 pairs of free VR goggles. We didn't apply for a pair within the time limit, but luckily we already had a cardboard headset hanging around in the office, made by a company called "Happy Finish" (which, confusingly, is actually just a normal VR company and doesn't have anything to do with porn). The headset looks a bit like one of those cut-out DIY cardboard toys you get on the back of cereal packets. Once it's assembled you load up a video on your phone, put your phone inside the headset and you're off. You are a consumer of virtual reality porn. Full story...
