The Present and the Future of 360 Porn Industry
The Digital era has drastically changed the porn industry. These days, demanding users can get everything they want at any time – new faces, positions, scenarios, decorations, and props. Rule 34 says that ‘Everything you can imagine exists in porn’ is no longer an Internet meme, but our reality.
As long as you have money, you can contact your favorite porn actors and ask them to perform for you anything you want. Moreover, you can have access to the best porn websites from anywhere – your bedroom, workplace, and even while being in the tent in the middle of nowhere.
Only Pornhub is visited by more than 120 million people every single day. Due to coronavirus pandemic, porn views have increased all over the world. There is no need to get surprised – people trapped in their houses are looking for ways to stay entertained.
Porn film studios try to use this demand to their own advantage and offer users new exciting products. Virtual reality porn is one of the latest products that are already on sale. You’d be surprised, but some experts predict that VR porn will not only survive on the market but will become a best seller by 2025.
Quite possibly, future generations will watch porn only in this format, and HD videos will be as amusing for them as erotic playing cards for us today. Here is what you need to know about the present and the future of virtual reality pornography:
A bit of history
A lot of people don’t know that virtual reality has a long history. Experts say that the first concept of multiplying artificial worlds was created in Renaissance Europe when famous artists tried to develop the perspective in their paintings. The first descriptions of virtual reality appeared in science fiction at the beginning of the 20th century.
These days, everybody who has 500$ can buy a decent VR headset and do with it whatever they want. Back to the 1970s, VR devices were used for military training, automobile industry design, and flight simulation purposes only. As you can guess, at that time, this great technology was way too expensive for an ordinary man. Moreover, no one could predict that at some point, VR headsets would be used for satisfying sexual needs.
In the mid-2010s, the concept of virtual reality started to gain popular recognition. During VR festivals, fans were watching action videos and playing games. Over time, the product became available for mass use, and that’s when porn film studios discovered a fantastic opportunity.
Watching porn in the VR headset feels like being in the same room with porn actors – it is an entirely different level of arousal!
According to Beyond Ages, virtual reality porn is a good seller in Thailand, Hong Kong, and the Philippines, Taiwan, and Norway. Pornhub.com reports that more than half a million people request VR porn on their platform every single day. Experts predict that the number of users is more likely to grow in the next five years once producers improve the available products.
VR porn obstacles
In the near future, virtual reality can become the dominant form of porn. Moreover, we might witness a cultural phenomenon. However, producers still have a few problems to solve in order to attract more people to this concept.
First of all, they need to find unique angles and positions. Right now, fans can watch VR porn only from a third-party perspective. It looks impressive, but there is still no big difference from traditional porn. So, why will people want to pay more for this experience?
In order to make VR porn a great seller, film studios should allow viewers to watch videos from their perspective. In this case, they will have a chance to simulate sexual intercourse with their favorite porn actress or actor.
There is only one problem – porn actors change positions every five minutes. Most probably, viewers will not want to do the same while masturbating. Can you imagine running around your house with a VR headset and a penis in your hands? It might be a bit awkward, especially if your partner comes back home early or your parents decide to pay a surprise visit.
The second thing film producers should work on is creating better surroundings. Of course, viewers want to see actors having wild, mind-blowing sex. However, they also want to be able to walk around a bit. Needless to say, once film producers will take this into consideration, the cost production might skyrocket. On the other hand, the demand for a quality VR experience might also increase with time.
Other than that, users should also be able to pause videos, skip some parts (who likes thin storylines and awkward acting in the very beginning ), and change the volume of the video.
A lot of porn fans live with their friends and family members and don’t want any awkward situations to occur. People who work in the porn industry should figure out a way to make this process easier.
The bright future of VR porn industry
Once these small problems are solved, VR porn might go viral and become the number one seller. In a few years, users will be able to request VR porn with their favorite actors and maybe write their own scripts. Who wouldn’t like to become the main protagonist in a story?
VR porn also gives a lot of new opportunities to the sex toy industry. Quite possibly, one day, we will be able to buy a VR set and a masturbator in one package. To make it happen, VR, porn, and sex toy industries should work on a decent advertising campaign together.
