Steppin Into VR

Written By: Nate Davis

Is there anything that ever stays the same in the tech world? No, there really isn’t. People and companies are constantly evolving and putting out better and new technology. They don’t ever stop. This causes everyone to look for the “next” thing. The new phone, the new tablet, the new Virtual Reality experience.

I had my first real experience with Virtual Reality just a few weeks ago. I was blown away by the experience. It was unlike anything I had ever tried. I used Google Tilt Brush and drew in 3D. I also tried Richie’s Plank Experience. The plank experience is where you walk into an elevator and go up 30 stories, and then when the doors open, you have a plank you walk on. I couldn’t even get to the end of the plank. My brain couldn’t comprehend it wasn’t real. I tried many different games and experiences. This VR technology is going to be the next big thing. Another thing changing the way to interact and view the world.

We must be ever ready to adapt and change for the better. It’s hard to imagine a world in which innovation and change didn’t exist as much as it does now. There are some very bright minds in this world, people who devote their lives to family, friends, and solving problems. Let’s move forward in this new year with a determination to become better problem solvers. Technology is ever changing, and we can influence it for the better.
