ITAKU – VR Adult Content it was amazing and enjoyed yourself like a boss.
BaDoink, one of a handful of pioneer VR porn
companies, is handing out free virtual reality headsets to the public.
In a surprise to nobody, the company ran out of its first 10,000
headsets within 24 hours. The company put in another order for 20,000
more goggles to give to customers.
Don’t expect an Oculus Rift in the mail. BaDoink is shipping the far
cheaper cardboard headsets modeled on Google Cardboard, which
retails for roughly $20. The goal is to seed the community with the gear
necessary to run BaDoink’s virtual reality application to buy porn
flicks to watch through Cardboard.
“There’s maybe three other sites out there offering this as an adult VR [porn] site on its own,” BaDoink’s CEO Todd Glider told Re/code.
“So we thought this is a great way to raise awareness and get a lot of
people to see the BaDoink brand. Honestly we don’t know yet whether it
will succeed because the first batch was mailed on Friday. Nobody who
ordered them has received them yet. ”
Porn’s role in the tech vanguard is no secret. It has served as the
tip of the spear of tech platforms since forever. “Adult content for
good or ill is the straw that stirs technology’s drink in terms of
consumer uptake,” BaDoink’s CEO Todd Glider told Re/code. “When
the VCR came along, when the Internet came along, people said, ‘I want
to get this because I can watch adult entertainment on it." He
added: “For a lot of people, this is the first they’ve heard of Google
Cardboard because it’s all so new.”
The company contracted a Chinese company to make a generic version of
Google Cardboard. BaDoink pays $3 per device, which includes
manufacturing and shipping to the customer from China. It launched its
virtual reality porn site at the same time as it started its headset
giveaway and has seven adult films currently available, with plans to
release a new one each week.
