At a studio in the Japanese capital, director Taro Kambe peers into a black headset to check a scene from his first video to make use of virtual reality technology. "I have directed hundreds of adult videos but it was my first virtual reality movie," said the 39-year-old. Japan is the worldÕs second biggest virtual reality market after the United States and the adult entertainment industry and gaming sector are turning to VR as a new way to distribute content. Some analysts have said the adult entertainment industry has helped to drive adoption of new platforms, such as Super 8 film in the 1960s, and later VHS, DVD and early online videos.
