Virtual reality has evolved from visually immersive CGI like in the movie Avatar to 3D roller coasters that don’t actually move to fully immersive experiences. At this point, we are starting to see the very early stages of how it will become an everyday part of our lives.

 

In this episode, I sit down for a discussion with VR enthusiasts Josh Ruben, Josh Bankston, and Eric Liga to discuss the economic potential of virtual reality down the road. We juxtapose VR with augmented reality and talk about ways in which virtual reality is already being used today.

 

Josh Ruben is the co-founder and CEO of Z3VR, a VR development company.

Josh Bankston is the co-founder of HoustonVR, a Houston-based VR meetup group.

Similarly, Eric Liga is also the co-founder of HoustonVR.
