Not content with the market dominance its Meta Quest 2 device has brought, Meta is apparently pushing into new technological territory with a trio of device prototypes: Butterscotch, Flamera, and Starburst. Butterscotch is Meta’s attempt to nail varifocal VR graphics with the belief that it will offer viewing experiences that feel much closer to actual human vision.

Meta claims Butterscotch will not only feature varifocal tech but near-retinal resolution. These combined could offer the most realistic and convincing VR experiences yet. Though still in development and merely a prototype that, according to Meta, “may never make their way into a consumer-facing product,” this research is definitely something that should excite porn fans.

Soon VR will be clearer than RL.
Sounds like a nice progression and tech evolution.
