It’s getting cold and so I’m fumbling with my phone and other devices.
I like the idea of a large screen on my forearm, but I’m not sure how it would work. Maybe it would be cool?
I see some company tried in 2014 and probably didn’t get anywhere (see Arubixs Portal), and there was that infamous Kickstarter too
I want the gravity gloves from Half Life Alyx.
Back when I played the game I was putting in a couple hours a day for a little bit. One morning I woke up to my cell phone alarm going off and I reached over to shut it off but it was out of reach. In my not very awake state, and having been spending so much time in VR with the gravity gloves on, I pointed two of my fingers at my phone to “tether” it and started flicking my wrist to “pull” it to me, just like in the game. It wasn’t until it obviously didn’t come flying through the air to me and I started getting frustrated that I woke up enough to realize that sleepy me is incredibly stupid and you can’t make things fly through the air to you in the real world.
I once went outside on a foggy day and thought, wow, this tender distance is terrible
“Tender distance” sounds like some kind of song name.
You are not alone, I had the same experience after hours of Alyx. Shows how immersive that game is.
