Virtual reality shows carers neglect and abuse through a child’s eyes
We at bestvr.tech are always on the lookout for new, innovative uses of virtual reality, especially those that are beneficial to mankind. Not every such use is without its sinister side. For example, a few months ago, we reported on the use of VR images of children combined with a plethysmograph to identify paedophiles and thus potential sex offenders. While the people conducting the research seemed quite enthusiastic about, neither we nor our readers shared the enthusiasm for such an error-prone approach to a complex subject.
How virtual reality developers are surviving the hype cycle
Today, Oculus kicks off its fourth annual Connect developers conference, where the Facebook-owned company will set the tone for virtual reality development in 2018. Connect will be capping off what’s arguably been the quietest year for virtual reality since the original Rift development kit shipped in 2013. After the first series of big-name headsets were released in 2016, VR’s immediate post-launch buzz is long gone. But to developers who are still building for the medium, that doesn’t mean VR is over — just that they’ve got a long way to go before hitting the mainstream.

Samsung Odyssey Initial Review from a ViVe Owner
I had the opportunity to pick up a Samsung Odyssey this weekend for $749 Canadian (about $590 USD) and wanted to share my initial impressions/review. I also picked up an Alienware 15 laptop with an i7 7700HQ CPU, 16GB of 2400 RAM and an nVidia GTX 1070 so that I can pop it in a backpack and really push the limits of Room Scale VR. My initial review is broken into Odyssey HMD, Motion Controllers, Odyssey Experience and Windows Mixed Reality Experience.
Anil Seth has recently been experimenting with a new tool in his study of human consciousness: strobe lighting. A powerful strobe lamp, according to Seth, is capable of inducing altered states of consciousness, while allowing him to record brain signals at the same time. “It looks like we’re simulating an altered state of consciousness, but we don’t know for sure yet,” Seth says. “We have to be careful. When you flicker a strobe light at someone you get messy data.”
Smellable VR is coming whether you want it or not
Modern virtual reality is a treat for the senses. Well, two of them at least. “Sight and sound have been the staple of VR environments,” Benjy Li, a postdoctoral researcher with Stanford’s Virtual Human Interaction Lab, told Engadget. Haptic feedback is starting to allow for basic touch, but the next radical evolution in VR could actually come via your nose (and/or mouth).
