When amateur adult performers Damien and Diana Soft have sex, the Apple Vision Pro stays on.

Porn is one of the few types of content—possibly only rivaled by video games—that people use VR headsets for today. It’s been that way since the 19th century, with erotic stereoscopes and spinning peep-show kinetographs capturing people’s imaginations more than 100 years before we started strapping computers to our faces to watch a blowjob in 4K. But the barriers to entry for amateur pornographers trying to get into VR porn are high. 

The Apple Vision Pro is expensive, and for a while after launch, no one could figure out how to get porn to play properly on the $4,000 headset. But it turns out the easiest way to get porn onto the Vision Pro is to record it using the Vision Pro itself. The device records natively from inside the headset, and is a lot cheaper and less cumbersome for performers than wearing multiple DSLRs on your head while trying to stay hard. 

The Softs filmed their sex life as a private hobby for years, they told me, but mid-pandemic, they needed the money that online sex work could bring in. In 2021, they joined Onlyfans, followed by PornHub and Fansly.
