The internet is for porn? This VR headset sure is.
The sole purpose of the Internet existing is porn. Tonnes of good, bad, exciting, disgusting, weird porn for every taste. Where would the world be if porn hadn’t pushed the technology forward? VHS, DVD, and BluRay have all appeared because people wanted a better quality sex video. And now we were blessed with the next level of pornography evolution – virtual reality porn.
It’s true that VR is not a new asset in the industry. People got a chance to take part, or at least feel like being a part, of a sex video two or three years ago. But the technology is developing and becoming more and more affordable for a common user. And we finally got a porn-dedicated VR headset to excite and arise interest (and not only interest, if you know what I mean, wink-wink).
A headset called VRotica was designed as an all-in-one system to enjoy high-quality VR porn. The HDM (head-mount-display) itself is of a standalone type, which means you don’t have to meddle with a shitton of wires, thanks for that. Can you imagine watching a thoroughly picked video and accidentally plucking off a wire? And what if it is the, em, the moment? No, thank you.

The device is not so big – it weighs around 400 g which makes it tolerable to wear for a long time. Can’t say it is the most comfortable thing, but let’s be honest – having a brick-sized gadget on your face will never be comfortable enough. So, having that in mind, it is safe to say that VRotica is pretty good in terms of wearing it. It has adjustable straps to fit even the biggest head and 2 dials to adjust the lenses for screen and interpupillary distance. Which means you can try to achieve maximum possible quality by playing with the settings.
However, the quality of the screen and, subsequently, the video isn’t that impressive. The screen has a resolution of 1920*1080 with 30 frames per second rate. To be honest in 2019 that is not enough, but we have what we have. On the other side, if you have never tried VR and particularly porn for VR, you can be impressed with what you see.
About what you see. The content here is represented with 360 videos. It is not the same as having a three-dimensional girl staying naked in front of you but still can satisfy your needs in voyeurism. The reason they use 360 video is that the headset is not powerful enough to process heavy 3D images. If you want to feel complete immersion, you better use one of the powerful headsets like HTC Vive or Oculus Rift. There you will have all the quality today’s VR has. But again, remember about the wires.
When you buy a headset, you already have several pre-installed videos so you can get yourself satisfied right on the spot. If you want more, you have to purchase them additionally. The great disadvantage of VRotica is that you can’t download videos you have bought before – sideload is simply unavailable here. But, on the other side, you have access to a vast catalog of videos from nine porn providers. And believe me, there is what to choose from. But on the other side, some may find those videos pricy – an average sum to pay is around three and a half bucks. So, you choose if you are ready to pay for a thirty-minute scene that much money. And if you are lucky, you can get a good bundle to save up a coin.
What balances the price of the content is the price of the headset. Paying only $250 you receive a well-made headset, that can work for around 4 hours in a standalone mode. You also get a couple of videos with it and if you are not too picky, those may be enough for you. So for the price you pay, you get exactly what you need – a VR headset to watch porn. If you are interested in VR beyond that topic, go and buy Oculus Go or something like that.
