Re: VR
@mhhf1ve I think you are right both of them would merge as it would make sense from technological point of view...

Re: VR
Maybe if Augmented Reality merges with Virtual Reality then things will all combine as people "see" everything through tech-goggles. AR in my opinion has more potential than VR, but maybe there won't be a distinction in the near future.

Re: VR
Hm. I can't think of any examples where a new form of media immediately merged with older forms after introduction. VR might be trending now, but so was 3D TV not too long ago. Avatar is due for a sequel, but some hot technologies just don't take off. And they rarely merge with other media unless quite a bit of time has elapsed.

Re: VR
@mhhf1ve I would say VR technology will be merged into everything soon as I do see heavy consumer interest in this technology... and it is a big factor...

100% Agreed. VR will be another form of content that will be separate from other forms like books, video games, movies, radio, TV, etc... Sure, maybe someday, just as movies and TV have merged, perhaps VR will blend and be nearly indistinguishable from other forms of entertainment/content (with just a difference of "production value").

Re: Virtual Reality
Good point. I definitely think being in real life situations are the best ways to prepare for those certain occupations, and most to be honest.

Re: Virtual Reality
@Alison: Good points, Alison.

On the entertainment side, however, we watch video to watch things happen to other people.  It's the fundamental component of catharsis, and I don't see that seminal social human urge going away anytime soon.

I think the proper way to look at VR here is as a completely different medium.  People will consume it and engage with it completely differently than they do with standard video entertainment -- and the content for it has to be developed pretty differently too.

In short, VR video will no more compete with traditional video than reading books and going to see a play compete with each other.

Re: Virtual Reality
I think VR is great for training but in terms of emergency responders, doctors, medical professionals, engineers, scientists, teachers and counselors nothing beat real-life experience. Simulation is great but it doesn't account for variables, that's where real-life experience and trainings wins everytime.
