Virtual porn is coming to a bedroom near you. And you are welcome to be a part of it!
Ola amigos. I wonder if any of you can recall Ela Darling, the pornographic actor who recorded her first virtual-reality sex scene a few years ago. In 2013, Darling chanced upon two computer geeks (James Ashfield, a quantum physics major, and his college roommate) who’d built a makeshift virtual-reality camera out of a couple of GoPros and posted a note on Reddit looking for a porn star to test it. Darling saw their post and showed up at James’s dorm room.
There she sat nude on a bed in a variety of provocative poses; and rather than the typical one or two-camera setup, she faced an array of cameras and a Kinect. Her resulting hologram, seen from inside an Oculus, in stereoscopic 3D with full 180-degree head tracking, wasn’t too bad at all. It was a solo masturbation scene, and she was coy, flirty and then some. It felt sexy as hell. And the rest is virtual-porn history.
VR Porn is coming – and so can you Last month, during a panel discussion of top virtual-reality executives at the Silicon Valley Virtual Reality Conference, Palmer Luckey, the founder of Facebook-owned Oculus Rift, addressed a topic that the rest of the panel seemed determined to avoid— porn. He stressed that Rift was an open platform, and that they didn’t intend controlling what software could run on it. That, my amigos, is a big deal for VR porn.
Pornhub has introduced a free virtual reality category to their site, in collaboration with VR porn producer BadoinkVR. It is compatible with Oculus Rift, desktop and mobile platforms, as well as Android and iOS apps. Essentially, Oculus Rift is your new wing man.
