OMG the size of that headset.

Over 20 years later and still not quite there yet. I'm surprised though it's taken this long given what they were doing back then.

Well if you look at Moore's Law between 90-10's then it makes more sense really, and the explosion into smartphones helped all the small components needed dramatically drop in price to make it affordable. Hence the Oculus Kickstarter was perfectly timed to take advantage of re-purposing phone parts.

Anyone ever take apart a DK2? You'll notice there is a decapitated Samsung Note 3 in there :P
