VR porn avatars on offer

-

A PORN company has created computeris­ed versions of real porn stars for its saucy, high- tech virtual reality app.

Camasutra VR unveiled its new “porn star avatar experience” at a recent porn awards show, and there’s now a video showing what the new frontier of the industry looks like.

The company used a vast camera array to accurately model the bodies of porn stars in 3D.

These 3D scans were then ported into the game, making it possible to interact with virtual porn stars as if they were real.

Using motion- tracked, handheld controller­s, it’s possible to physically touch the adult stars, and watch as they interact.

The user doesn’t receive any direct stimulatio­n from the VR contraptio­n, only visual.

Camasutra boss Adam Sutra said: “Our big plan is to create uncensored worlds where people can have real- time experience­s with our digital avatars, finding ways for adult stars to represent themselves in the digital world, creating new revenue streams and experience­s in the industry.”

He said the end goal was to re- create real- world movements of porn stars in the virtual world, but live in real- time.

“Crafting a lifelike nude character in real- time is our holy grail.

“This is a complicate­d technical endeavour that requires a tremendous amount of research.”
