Even though there have never been so many VR users on Steam (around 2 million according to the Upload VR site ), "People still have trouble investing in a VR mask at home today. They first need to be able to test, understand and appreciate this new medium," notes Camille Lopato, co-founder, with her brother Marc, of Diversion cinéma, which specializes in organizing VR cinemas.

It contains two virtual reality masks and a tablet offering the possibility to browse and select 360° films from a catalogue.
