A VR cam show is a type of live webcam performance that uses a 360-degree or 180-degree camera to create an immersive and interactive experience for the viewers. A regular cam show is a live webcam performance that uses a standard camera to capture a fixed-angle view of the performer. As a VR cam model you'll need a special camera and a high bandwidth in order to live stream a VR show. You should also be aware that the viewer can choose their own perspective and explore the scene by moving their head or using a VR controller, while a regular cam show limits the viewers to the perspective chosen by the performer or the camera operator. This means you have to perform without knowing just where the viewer is looking, as opposed to performing in front of fixed cam where you control your partners viewing scope.

VR camming is a relatively new niche in the camming world and as yet, there is no hard and fast data when it comes to estimating the average monthly earnings of a full-time VR cam model. There are certain factors that will impact your earnings as a VR cam model both on a negative and positive note. Firstly, VR cam models are generally experienced in the world live sex camming and generally start VR camming with a pre-built fan base. Secondly, most VR cam shows are private 1on1 sessions where you earn a per-minute rate as opposed to waiting for tips in a free open cam show. On the downside, your potential audience for a VR cam show is much smaller as viewers have to have invested in the appropriate equipment, which rules out a large percentage of the cam world followers. As with any aspect of VR cam modelling, you should start exploring the industry first as a non-VR video chat host and then decide if investing in the equipment will help you increase your income earned from camming.

The top VR cam sites require their VR cam models to use hardware that corresponds to their specific requirements. Some platforms even insist that you use their hardware and install their proprietary software in order to sync your VR cam show to their online platform. This can be an expensive investment, so make sure you know which cam site is the best one for your needs and offers you the best potential income feed. Whichever site you choose to launch your VR cam modelling career on you'll need a VR camera system that can capture and stream 180° or 360° 3D videos in high resolution, as well as a VR headset that can display the live feed from your camera and allow you to interact with your viewers. You'll also need to make sure your computer can handle the processing and streaming of VR content and a fast and reliable internet connection, preferably with a wired connection or a 5G network.

When it comes to VR cam modelling, you're entering a niche, yet growing market. As such, you'll have the advantage of being one of a limited number of live VR cam hosts worldwide. This sets you apart immediately from the hundreds of thousands of regular cam models and gives you an audience that is actively searching for new performers in a still relatively untapped cam arena. The other big advantage of VR cam modelling is that VR cam hosts are more in demand for private shows where you earn a per-minute income, as opposed to hosts in free shows where you're relying on tips. On the downside, the international VR cam viewership is smaller, though growing day-by-day, with many platforms offering VR cam shows, working exclusively with studios. This means you may need to sign with a cam studio in order to perform on the live video chat sites with the highest traffic. While you'll get support from a studio, they'll also take a percentage of your income and you'll have to adhere to their rules in terms of what, when, where and how.
