New virtual reality hardware made special for 3D pleasure.

Fans of virtual reality porn who are in search of an immersive experience that’s also, all-importantly, a thoroughly private one may be in for a treat. WeVeer, a newly crowdfunded VR headset with built-in headphones and remote, has been designed from the ground-up for your personal enjoyment.

An intimate erotic experience

Using the wearer’s own smartphone as its base—as opposed to higher-end but also higher-priced, stand-alone systems like the Oculus Rift and the HTC Vive—WeVeer has been remarkably successful: it surpassed its original Indiegogo campaign goal of $5,000 by nearly $4,000 at the time of publication.

Developer Chris Romano describes the WeVeer as the “World's Best VR Glasses For Porn” with many of the headset’s features being designed purely for adult entertainment:

• Very low weight, at just 300 grams
• Integrated sound isolation headphones for audio privacy
• A specially designed visor for visual privacy
• High Definition (HD) optical acrylic lenses
• Replaceable face cushions

Additionally, the system boasts a hands-free, built-in joystick as “sometimes our hands are too busy” when viewing VR sex videos.

Riding VR popularity

As we’ve discussed before, the higher-end of VR systems and hardware can run anywhere from $600 to $800 (like the Oculus and the Vive)—not including the cost of computer powerful enough to run the necessary software.

Much more accessible, though not delivering as comprehensive an experience as the Rift or the Vive, are smartphone-using systems like the Gear VR, Zeiss VR One, and, of course, what many say started the VR craze: Google Cardboard.

While there is a tremendous amount of interest in virtual reality in regards to sexual pleasure—adult entertainment giant Pornhub [NSFW] and BaDoinkVR [NSFW] is one partnership leading the charge, though many others are following suit—few companies appear to be outwardly showing serious interest in producing a VR system solely with erotic enjoyment in mind.

Available in a few months

Promising to ship in September, the units will sell to early contributors for $59 and to regular backers for $79. For those interested in the couple’s two-pack, the cost is $150. And if you are in a VR party mood, five units are available for $300.

Purchasers will also receive three months of access to VirtualPorn360 [NSFW].

While it’s easy to look at the WeVeer as just a marketing gimmick riding the current surge of VR porn popularity, its headset offering both built-in headphones as well as a joystick for such pricing is a pretty good deal— one promising to attract not just adult entertainment fans but anyone interested in experimenting with virtual reality.
