Teaching Tool
I would be curious to see how VR can be used to teach students especially those with learning disabilties. Has any research been done or pilots created to test this out?

Re: DCawrey,
@elizabethv, That is a good point. VR/AR will be great tools for kinestethic learners and could also help what others with learning disabilities.

Re: DCawrey,
@Adi, I agree. VR will probably get better traction in another industry. VR is overrated. I don't think it will be as profitable and popular as anticipated.

VR Traction
VR is not moving as fast as the industry thought it would. It is mostly used by gamers. I don't see it replacing anything that consumers currently use. For example. I would not use VR to watch a movie or TV show. I like watching a movie on a TV or laptop.

Re: VR
curious to see what the TT Community thinks about this:

GameFace has a prototype VR headset that is compatible with Oculus, SteamVR, and Google Daydream. The EP1 headset also has positional tracking. The equipment can operate as a standalone headset using Android or when tethered to a PC to run SteamVR.  GameFace had an early prototype standalone VR headset in 2014, far in advance of the current wave of standalone headset technology. Developers can reserve pre-consumer models priced at $500 or $700 depending on the model, making it possible to create content for a variety of different platforms. — ENGADGET 
GameFace headsets support multiple platforms

Re: VR
The general challenge, as I see it, is one whereby this is a "niche" product right now--whether it gains mass adoption is what we will ultimately call for.

Re: DCawrey,
That's where the long-term development is--but the question is the virtual setting and how Mobile techonlogy will factor it?

Re: VR
HoloLens is quite a remarkable tool--There is a steep learning curve, though--maybe I have not had the patience yet.   Maybe this is one of the savings' graces that Microsoft have especially in light of the recent restructuring has gone thru.

There is no question that it is not a question of if--but when.   This is as we're seeing, for instance, FB with its' $ 200 VR plans.   The question, though, is how soon, right?

Re: DCawrey,
I wonder if we can/will see statistics on how VR/AR is changing the training process and doing things like reducing work place injuries.
