LOS ANGELES—Camasutra Industries, the ground-breaking team behind the Camasutra VR porn star avatar experience, officially unveiled its virtual technology at this year’s AVN Adult Entertainment Expo (AEE).
The company treated attendees to a first look at lifelike photo-real digital avatars of adult’s top stars at its exhibit booth, with private demonstrations that were very well-received by fans, industry peers and the performers themselves.
“Our big plan is to create uncensored worlds where people can have real-time experiences with our digital avatars, finding ways for adult stars to represent themselves in the digital world, creating new revenue streams and experiences in the industry,” said Adam Sutra, Camasutra Industries’ founding partner and CEO.
Sutra also added that attendees were impressed by Camasutra VR’s many uses of this technology with a display that featured both augmented reality and an open world gaming platform that is currently in development.
“It’s crazy; when looking at myself in VR, I could see things about my body that only I really ever notice,” said performer Casey Calvert, whose avatar was front and center at the Camasutra Industries booth. “Its realness is truly amazing.”
Expo guests were able to experience three different positions and situations with Casey’s avatar, walking around her in 3D space and interacting by using their hands to touch and manipulate the digital avatar; in one scene, Casey and co-star Donny Sins were positioned doggy-style in a "third person perspective" so the viewer could "step into" Donny’s body and experience the scene from his point of view.
AVN was on the set for the capturing of adult star Lily Lane.
“Crafting a lifelike nude character in real-time is our holy grail,” said Sutra. “This is a complicated technical endeavor that requires a tremendous amount of research, unlike pre-rendered blockbuster movies, where it can take days to render one frame… We are trying to achieve this in real-time and at 90 frames per second!”
