HTC SCREEN LIGHTS UP BUT CANNOT SEE THE DISPLAY PLUS

Instead of looking like a medieval torture device, the Vive Flow glasses look like a slightly oversized pair of gold mirrored sunglasses with a cloth skirt to block out the light. The Vive Flow glasses, whilst still not a cool pair of Ray-Bans, have the wearer not looking quite the dork that regular VR headsets do. It’s this unappealing design that’s likely stunted the mainstream uptake of virtual reality. Instead, top end-VR headsets are still akin to strapping a heavy shoebox to your forehead. The Vive Flow glasses are just how I thought VR headsets should have evolved after almost a decade of being commercially available. But perhaps with devices like the HTC Flow, it will be. The ability of virtual reality to reprogram our thinking is not a widely discussed thought, particularly as a positive one. Similarly, VR experiences like the Blu, which allows users to experience an underwater environment surrounded by fish at the bottom of the ocean, standing on a shallow reef, or the deck of a shipwreck, is also strangely calming. My breathing even changed, like you do as you inhale crisp, fresh air. The experience was so calming and real that I actually felt like I was on that grassy mountainside.

One of my first experiences having purchased HTC’s original Vive headset back in 2016 was an app that had me standing on a mountain.

It’s an interesting marketing tagline and one that I’m surprised has not been used to market VR in the past.

HTC Australia sent over one of their Vive Flow headsets plus a compatible Oppo mobile phone for me to try out “The immersive VR glasses for on-the-go wellness”.
