+1, I am also supportive of SLR's investment in PT tech. Throwing my two cents in given all the negative comments I see.
I get it - it's a bit clunky right now and still needs work. But let's step back and think of the bigger picture here. The upcoming generation of headsets will have the full-color passthrough, blurring the line between what is VR and what is real. And that is not far away. One year from now, the quest 3 will likely have replaced most of the quest 2's out there.
In parallel, haptics tech has advanced drastically in the last few years with the introduction of the OSR2, SR6, and multi-access scripts. These devices can mimic grinding motion across 6 axes, and there is even a squeezing capability in the works. On top of that new sleeves such as the Zxy, Venus Real, and the Nagai brought a level of realism that has ever been seen before with toys. If you need convincing, try out one of the SLR multi-access scripts on an OSR2/SR6 equipped with a Venus Real!
Now imagine what happens when you put this all together. Imagine a life-like model in front of you, in your bed or on your couch. You feel every movement that you see. We are so close to having the tech to make this possible. I want to see it happen 🙂.
What convinced me to buy a lifetime sub to SLR, is the vision. I saw these folks push the boundaries - investing in PT, investing in multi-axis, even trying to build the first commercial multi-axis haptics device. What other company in the adult space is doing this?
I don't know about you, but I'm not going to be content with just keeping the status quo and pushing out content. I want to see the most realistic experiences brought to life.
Unlike most companies in this space, with SLR, we have a direct feedback channel to their CEO. Please don't use it to try to talk him out of pushing the boundaries and being like all the other content providers.
Instead, let's work together to make this thing happen. Look how far AI-generated scripts have come, and how the SLR team acted on the feedback received. The same will happen with PT.
Yes, it is a little clunky at the moment. But keep in mind the big picture, and where we can get given a bit of time from now.
