It depends on who you ask at CES, where companies are showing off innovations that could immerse us deeper into virtual reality, otherwise known as VR.
An earlier, business-focused version used primarily for marketing fragrances and beauty products is integrated into VR goggles and allows users to smell anything from a romantic bed of roses to a marshmallow roasting over a fire at a campsite. The numbers show there's waning interest. According to the research firm NPD Group, sales of VR headsets, which found popular use in gaming, declined by two per cent last year, a sour note for companies betting big on more adoption.
"I think that's far from reality right now," Ozaskinli said. "But if I was considering it to replace Zoom meetings, why not? At least you can feel something."
This is gonna be bigger than 3-D TV!

Wall-E in the making
'..when you are afraid to go outside, breath the air, smell the scents and do things, we have googles and shit to make it feel like you're outside of mom's basement.'
Why not just take a road trip, get on a boat or plane. Or make human contact. Turn you phone off.
Just remember that when everybody becomes obese & VR takes over it can all be traced back to META
Sounds like a love in.
