Outside the Building looking down the Tobacco Road
The Staircase down to Lucid VR
The actually facility of Lucid VR
Today Shane and I got to travel down to Downtown Durham where we were found ourselves working in the American Underground District. The American Underground is a place where small start up companies can rent out small sized facilities for a low monthly cost so they can focus on starting to get revenue and not so much on paying the bills. Upon arrival we found ourselves literally walking down a staircase to the basement of the building. Truly in the Underground area.
After meeting up with Josh Setzer, we were given a short tour of the area and introduced to all the members on the team. Just like any other software company they had members ranging in different fields, from overall product sales to straight up coders.
The software that Lucid Dream VR is working on is primarily dependent on their clients’ desires. The company designs software that meets the demands of their clients so that the clients can spend that time on more necessary tasks.
Throughout the day we were able to test two VR headsets: the Oculus Rift, and the HTC Vive. It was really cool to see the progression of VR technology time, and hear from the guys there where each of them sees the industry going in the future.
All in all I really enjoyed my time at Lucid Dream VR, and I am interested to watch what happens to Virtual Reality in the near future.
