VR timeout room for kids

1 pointandrewfromx2 comments

I think I've asked about this before, but this is such a good idea. Some hackers must be doing this. Place your kid in a VR timeout room. A 10x10 room with a lock. Yes the kid is locked in the room. But he/she gets a two hour ride in the park, or educational talk about healthy food, point is parent can leave and monitor kid from phone.

Sorry to throw rocks at your idea, but you apparently haven't experienced an angry kid: I would not hand them a 800$ - 1000$ device while they're throwing a tantrum. ;)

no man picture a "padded room" and a helmet like http://www.daqri.com We can make it safe and indestructible and it's the future of babysitting. VR babysitting is a trilion dollar industry.
