What Are the Differences Between VR and AR Porn?

Are you curious about the latest technologies in porn, but you’re not sure where to start? It's pretty interesting even though we're all fans of VR porn movies, we don't know too much about them – and when someone is asking a seemingly simple question, like in the topic of this blog post, only a few people know the right answer. Don’t worry, though, as we've got you covered as always!

In this short guide, we’ll explain the main differences between VR and AR hardcore content, giving you some insight into their pros and cons. This way, you will know what kind of content best suits your preferences, and maybe (if you haven't already done so) you’ll be ready to purchase your first headset to start enjoying incredibly immersive experiences with your favorite porn stars!

VR Porn Movies

Perhaps every single one of you knows that, but we still simply have to say at least a couple of words about our beloved VR sex videos. Virtual reality porn is way more popular than AR, and one of the main reasons is probably that the headsets required to enjoy it are becoming way cheaper than they were a few years ago. Once you wear a device such as HTC Vive, Oculus, or Playstation VR, you see a 360 degrees image of the porn performers and the whole room where the scene is happening, just as if you were right there.

Head tracking systems let you explore the scene from different angles as you move your head, while the incredibly lifelike audio turns you on like never before. Of course, virtual reality could become the ultimate tool for voyeurs to fulfill their fantasies, but with the POV videos, you can also see the sexual act of your choice as if it was performed right on your body by an attractive model. This is possible because the body of the male performer appears right where yours should be when you look down.

AR Sex Scenes

AR is a completely different concept. With this technology, it’s not you that is magically teletransported into the porn scene, but it’s the performer that appears right in the real space around you, whether it’s your apartment or a hotel room. You can live an incredibly immersive and lifelike experience right from your smartphone or tablet’s camera as if you were focusing it on the model.

Instead, if you want to see your favorite porn actress masturbating right on the sofa, and not through your phone’s camera, unfortunately, you’ll have to purchase a very expensive augmented reality device, such as Google Glass, Microsoft HoloLens, Epson Moverio BT-300 or Vuzix Blade. Ready to fulfill your ultimate real-life porn fantasies?

So What Should I Choose?

First of all, it'd be pretty weird if we – professional creators of VR porn movies – would tell you that you should switch to another kind of content, lol. The point is, though, we have more than one reason not to tell you so. Yes, sure, it'd be against our own business, but – and you'll have to trust us on this one – even though AR porn sounds wonderful from the description, the technology has not yet developed to a satisfying level and we're not ready for them just yet.

Perhaps one day AR sex videos will become better than VR xxx scenes – but for now, we'll just keep on using good old virtual reality tech at VRConk.com, and if one day we'll decide to switch to augmented reality, you'll be the first to hear about that, we promise!
