'AliceX' is the name of a VR service that allows users to access a 24-hour webcam site that they view with a headset.
Described as a "virtual girlfriend experience," the VR service was made for those who don't have much luck in the dating scene and find themselves lonely, or perhaps just those who are curious to see how far technology can take them. In order to ensure that users are totally immersed, AliceX uses models who pretend to know the people watching them through the headsets.
To upgrade the quality of this, it's reported that the VR service "plans on implementing Oculus Rift support in the future." Although it's not likely that AliceX will have the power to replace human interactions, its existence shows how more and more companies are implementing the futuristic technology to satisfy the personal needs of consumers on every level.
