Virtual Reality (VR) technology has become increasingly popular nowadays. It provides unique experiences that blend the virtual and real worlds, allowing users to immerse themselves in an entirely new world. VR headsets are being used for various purposes, including gaming, education, therapy, and wellness. But have you ever considered using one while out in public alone? Recently, a man in Bengaluru did exactly that, and his video went viral on social media.
The footage captured the man interacting with the VR technology through hand gestures while enjoying a drink at a restaurant in Bengaluru. The caption of the video posted on X read, "Indian tech bro testing some cool...". The official X handle of Peak Bengaluru responded to the video with a laughing emoji, and the video quickly gained traction among users.
Interestingly, this is not the first time such an incident has occurred in Bengaluru. A few weeks prior, a man was seen strolling around the streets of Indiranagar with an Apple Vision Pro VR headset. The image was shared on X by Ayush Pranav on February 12, and quickly went viral. In the caption, Pranav wrote, “Encountered @waitin4agi_ while he was exploring with his vision pro on the streets of Indiranagar. Definitely a @peakbengaluru moment.”
The image triggered a wave of comments, with users expressing amusement and speculating about the potential implications of such behavior. One user humorously commented on the potential boon for eye doctors, while another compared the scene to "Vision pro zombies" wandering Bengaluru's streets.
This incident highlights the increasing use of VR technology and its potential impact on our daily lives. While it is undoubtedly a revolutionary innovation, some people are still skeptical about its use in public spaces. While some see it as an exciting new way to interact with the world, others are concerned about the implications of such behavior. Nevertheless, incidents like this show that the technology is becoming more mainstream, and its potential uses are still being explored.
