Never thought VR would be anything more than gaming? Well, here is an interesting turn of events where VR has been incorporated with shopping. Yes, you heard it right, now you can do your shopping in VR provided you have a Daydream VR headset(which for the time being is the only headset having this feature).
A startup named Obsess has created a software which would help you to have your shopping done from anywhere in VR. All you need to do is get started with the software and you would be instantly teleported to the retail store where you can view all the products in VR. There are even features included which would let you move the product around to have a good look.
The entire app will be interactive and you can purchase items once you are satisfied with the product. The app is now releasing on Google Daydream VR, however, you can even browse this using the WebVR app and select the kind of bed sheets or handbags that you like from anywhere. This like online shopping has taken a step further and it would be interesting to shop for your favorite items this way as you can save a lot of time and could even make better shopping decisions with the clarity you would get from VR.
