Palmer Luckey Talks Future of VR as Oculus Rift Hits Shelves

The much-anticipated Oculus Rift headset is hitting the market and its young inventor Palmer Luckey predicts that virtual reality will mark a more significant turning point in tech than Apple II, Netscape or Google. Luckey’s recent interview with NPR’s Kelly McEvers is available on the KCLU site. “Luckey muses about how VR may be better for the environment, why he recommends the novel Ready Player One despite its dystopian view of the VR future, how VR is facing similar pushback to the one faced by rock ‘n’ roll and swing dancing in their time and what ethical questions are raised by the use of VR for journalism.”
