It’s a known fact when wearing a mask people are able to experience less social anxiety and worry about how they’re perceived. I wouldn’t be surprised if wearing a big headset on your face has a similar effect for people’s social behaviour.
It's impressively true. I build an interesting perspective shifting rig, for a festival. It let you see yourself in the 3rd person (think GTA follow cam). I was a lot more confident interacting with people I didn't know, while wearing it, despite looking like a complete weirdo. 😁

Even sunglasses help… so I expect it would do that, but then you'd have to offset it by realizing you looked like a complete idiot.

That’s so cool though.
