The idea is that since the car does the driving the person in the driver&#8217;s seat can do something else with their time, like spend it in virtual reality. It&#8217;s currently unusual to see people in public spaces wearing VR headsets; it would be really weird to see someone driving like this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>&#8220;The virtual reality experience is just an example of something you can do in a self-driving car that you can\u2019t do in a standard vehicle or even at home. The experience uses data from the car\u2019s 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.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So much for roadside attractions.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/virtual-reality\/2018\/1\/5\/16854034\/ubisoft-vr-virtual-reality-renault-autonomous-cars-driving\" class=\"embedly-card\" data-card-recommend=\"0\" data-card-width=\"100%\">https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/virtual-reality\/2018\/1\/5\/16854034\/ubisoft-vr-virtual-reality-renault-autonomous-cars-driving<\/a><\/p>\n      ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>        VR while driving<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":77,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[93],"tags":[94],"class_list":["post-22067","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sff-thought-starters","tag-mike-reeves-mcmillan"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/csidemedia.com\/mikerm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22067","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/csidemedia.com\/mikerm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/csidemedia.com\/mikerm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/csidemedia.com\/mikerm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/77"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/csidemedia.com\/mikerm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=22067"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/csidemedia.com\/mikerm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22067\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/csidemedia.com\/mikerm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=22067"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/csidemedia.com\/mikerm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=22067"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/csidemedia.com\/mikerm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=22067"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
