I can see why people would consider this sexual harassment, but, this is 1 of just the many weird technologies out there and some might even be more extreme than this.

I'm not surprised this happened, but I'm disappointed it happened so fast.

Who is it that is being sexually harassed? The mouse pad?

If somebody combines this with that Tenga arm they will be getting close to having the complete experience.Razz

I do not understand what those images were in the first half of the video.
They look like girls from an anime or game, but how are they related to the Oculus?

Holy crap I just was in that store today.

I saw that demo and went... "only in akihabara".

Note: I haven't tried out an occulus rift but hell if I'm trying it with THAT demo.

It can't be sexual harassment if the girl isn't real. Also, when will Japan start testing VR for games? Summer lesson seemed more a test for VR gravure content than a game.

Funny that he's free to program her to be anything, and he chose to program her to be unwanting of the boobie cop a feel. Must be more arousing when it's unwanted sexual advances. Laughing

One of the few ways you can cop a girl's boob but avoid a sexual assault card being pulled.

Because the opposite is literally impossible, as we know fujoshi are all outgoing and competent sexual tigers.
