Over the weekend Netflix launched a new app for Google's VR headset, Daydream. Continue your binge from the comfort of a Netflix's virtual living room and enormous TV screen. 📺
Virtual Reality headsets like Gear VR and Daydream may not be in the same league as the HTC Vive or Oculus Rift, but make for an excellent passive viewing experience. For under $100 you can watch your favorite movies and shows from your own virtual IMAX Theater.
With startups like Wolfprint 3D creating realistic avatars of people and multiplayer 3D movie theaters like CINEVR, we're not far away from going to the movies with friends from all across the world, virtually.
Companies are even bringing native advertising to virtual reality. 😅

DigitalOcean Deploy is a one-day event focused on what happens when AI hits production. Latency, throughput, cost per token, reliability — all the things that show up the second something hits production.
There will be a fireside chat with NVIDIA’s Kari Briski on agentic AI. Teams from Character, Workato, VAST Data, Arcee, and the vLLM ecosystem will be there breaking down how they are actually running inference at scale plus a first look at what DigitalOcean is building next.
April 28 in San Francisco. Free to attend.
