3D Photography - Can new tech make it more accessible?

YT dropped their original Flash-based 3D support in favor of putting their efforts onto VR.

I just got my first VR headset, specifically to use with MS Flight Simulator 2020's VR capability. I have not previously had a VR headset (well, I tried one on once at a demo) so this is mostly new to me.

The MS Flight Simulator in VR is in full 3D.

Similarly, the generic Windows Mixed Reality user interface is also in 3D.

This surprised me - I was not expecting this.

If VR market is sizable enough, this is likely to be where 3D viewing will take place.

Some observations

- Instructions/manual were probably the worst I have seen in an electronic product! Had to go online to find forum posts or YT videos

- initial set up had some issues (turned out to be with the power connector)

- The hand controllers were supposedly pre-configured, but I had to manually configure them to get them working

- There is no diopter adjustment on the headset. Eventually found their instructions say to wear contact lenses or wear your glasses. I mostly need glasses for reading (like anyone over age 40 or so). Found trying to wear glasses awkward. I squint instead. This seems like a MAJOR oversight - literally they are telling everyone over 40 or so they are not expecting you to use their VR headsets!

- Each time the VR headset is powered on, a bunch of software stuff starts up. I have not timed it, but it takes a fair amount of time for everything to be up and running - plus I had to still use my mouse while looking at the computer screen before switching to VR mode.

- My thought is this is not yet consumer friendly enough to be adopted super widely. Hopefully it will get there.

- Eventually, this might be the standard way of viewing 3D for most people and might be where 3D finds a home.

- Related: Many (most?) video projectors (I do not have one) can display in 3D. It is very low cost to add 3D to a projector, far simpler than to an LCD TV screen.
