As per the title really. Could anyone that has tried the CV1 comment on whether the Field of View was better or the same as the DK2.
The reason I ask is, I just tried a Freefly VR Cardboard Headset, whilst Tracking is always going to be an issue with Mobile Phones, the Field of View was bigger than the DK2 and it made a huge difference. Now I know their has been thread upon thread on the FOV, and I don't want this thread to grow into 19 pages or arguing and technical jargon about fov measurements etc, just want an opinion from a user who doesn't where Glasses to say, Yep, Tried CV1 and:
1) It is Vastly improved over the DK2 2) There was an improvement, but it was hard to notice 2) It's about the Same or I couldn't tell the difference
If I could just get a feel from a couple of users, would appreciate it.
To give you an example, on this Freefly I tried, I had no goggle effect at the top or bottom. I could just make out the right hand side and left hand side edge of the Screen and it made a massive difference.

Very good question. Apparently they are about the same. Nowhere as good as your experience with the freefly unit as far as FOV but possibly better (just a tiny bit) than the DK2. Thats all we really know at the moment. Things are very quiet CV1 wise.
Others may have more specific facts 🙂 Lots of differing opinions on this.
Say what you want about the tradeoffs, current hardware being unable to do it properly, etc. But with a narrow FOV, you are simulating reality with a helmet on. You are not simulating true reality.

So very true. Not being able to see the sides of the old goggles at all would help even at a lo FOV. But there we be at the moment 🙂 Still, I feel your obvious pain. Maybe by 2030 we'll be laughin' ??
