VR while driving

Renault and Ubisoft have created a demo VR experience to help sell level 4 self-driving cars. The idea is that since the car does the driving the person in the driver’s seat can do something else with their time, like spend it in virtual reality. It’s currently unusual to see people in public spaces wearing VR headsets; it would be really weird to see someone driving like this.

“The virtual reality experience is just an example of something you can do in a self-driving car that you can’t do in a standard vehicle or even at home. The experience uses data from the car’s sensors to show you a virtual representation of the road and the objects near you, while giving reality a makeover to turn a boring road into something fantastical.”

So much for roadside attractions.
