RE: I just tested VR. How much time is left until we'll be part of a matrix?

Diana, you might consider licensing/franchising the setup from Awesome Rocketship. They've really nailed the "location-based VR" opportunity, which is a pretty challenging but potentially lucrative business. To do it right, one needs to consider:

• the hardware (Vive, Oculus, Sony, with or without hand controllers, 1 or 2 positional sensors, scale of user experience, etc...);
• Software for managing the system/business;
• remote systems mgmt capabilities if you don't want to be there 24/7;
• playlist creation/curation VERSUS a pure hardware rental scenario;
• ecommerce integration if going the curation route;
• also consider the security for paid content;
• HMD hygiene;
• IT / maintenance;
• staffing(?);
• negotiation with content providers;
  -probably lots of more issues I can't think of.

Yet with all of these challenges, a well run VR salon could become a larger revenue generator than a local movie theater VERY FAST considering the way first-time users consistently react. I hope you do it!
