so in essence like a pair of glasses or a device that allows VR to be experienced from within the nervous system?

Pretty much. This post compares VR to phones. Think about how convenient phones have become. At one point they required cords and glued you to a wall inside your house (like VR today). Now phones are sleek and well designed and easily slide in and out of your pocket at a moments notice. You can be in and out anywhere at anytime. That’s what we need for VR to be comparable to smartphones. VR contact lenses would get us there. But glasses could be a bridge.

What we needed is a revolutionary display technology and a lot more proceeding speed and memory. Drastically better efficiency is necessary.

And with each phase there’s going to be initial resistance/naysayers. Then the killer app comes along and everyone starts to jump onboard.

Or a much more light weight headset. I wouldn't mind putting something on the size of a pair of sunglasses. These big bulky headsets are off-putting
