This is my first independent piece published on HackerNoon. I enjoyed writing this piece. I have a deep interest in seeing virtual reality technology advance, especially open source VR technologies. Projects like SlimeVR interest me because their open source frameworks allow anyone with technical knowledge to achieve whatever they’d like when it comes to full body tracking. I’d love to see innovative entrepreneurs make startups to jump into democratizing and advancing VR further.
This piece was also great practice for me to continue learning and utilizing data storytelling techniques. I did research for the piece to enrich the text with relevant data that contributed directly to the story I wanted to tell, not just add extra fluff.
