- W3120681201 abstract "Last year, virtual reality (VR) and its counterpart, augmented reality (AR), erupted with popularity. At long last, the highly publicized head-mounted displays (HMDs), through which users can enter into a virtual world, went on sale to the public, including Facebook's Oculus Rift, Samsung's Gear VR, Sony's PlayStation VR, and HTC's Vive. Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality have hit the mainstream. Indeed, in 2016, four major VR hardware platforms were released, as well as numerous VR applications, from games to immersive news reporting to social experiments. Also, let us not forget the summer of 2016, where the world went nuts for Pokemon GO, and as a result, local hospitals and the Holocaust Memorial Museum were forced to put up signs asking players to please stop catching Pokemon on their premises.For most of the world, Pokemon GO was the advent of augmented reality. AR allows digital content to be superimposed in the real world through special glasses or, more typically, the screen of a smartphone. AR adds digital content to a user's perception of the real world, whereas virtual reality replaces the real world altogether. In VR, a user wears a HMD with speakers and can fully interact with a virtual world in the same way as the real world. To simulate a realistic, three-dimensional environment and experience, interactive software and hardware digitizes a user's eye movements and body movements through optical tracking with an imaging device and non-optical tracking with a variety of sensors that are often attached to the body of the user.VR and AR technology continue to advance at an exponential pace with no signs of slowing down. Seventy-five percent of the 100 companies on the Forbes World's Most Valuable Brands list have either developed VR or AR experience for their customers or have at least invested substantial amounts of capital in the technology. Last year's Coachella music festival even provided attendees with a custom cardboard VR headset, which allowed them to explore the festival grounds and preview performances.In contrast to the virtual world, however, HMDs and VR/AR technology raise numerous real-world legal questions, especially in the areas of intellectual property, privacy, the First Amendment, and consumer safety. This Article only addresses tort lawsuits, by users against VR and AR companies and by outsiders against VR and AR companies. The objective of this Article is to identify the forthcoming crucial questions regarding VR/AR tort lawsuits and present possible answers to these questions. As HMDs and VR/AR technology become more ubiquitous in our world, legislation and case law will likely give us more concrete answers and tell us which issues require further regulation and innovation." @default.
