I wonder what a serious CAD or 3D modeling app on this would feel like.


Never thought of that! I do cad design for fun (3d printing/lasercutting). Not sure how actually being in the design itself would help. Although it might feel natural to just move your head around when you are in the middle of a design.

Downside is that a lot of work still is 2d: browsing websites for information. And even casual distraction like reading news, browsing sneakers…

Measuring stuff to make the product fit, requires removal of the headset. Although that might actually be done with vr if it is accurate enough (0.1 mm). Interesting.


Yes, that would be awesome to see a new paradigm to 3d model.


It's existed for ages on other headsets and it's called Gravity Sketch (used to work there, the product is incredible)
