Oculus Rift on TV in Europe

There has been a serious Oculus reputation hit. Almost to a one, the people I have talked to about Oculus or shown the Rift are all over me last night and today telling me basically what an idiot I am for every trusting this would be anything. It has...

The internet just exploded

With all the uproar about the FB acquisition I thought we could all use a reminder about how cool the Rift really is. While I don't personally spend much time on FaceBook and think it's mainly a venue for families to stay in touch, you have to rememb...

Would this be an issue for the screens in the Rift?

Interesting article about how smartphone screens are damaging our health due to over exposure to blue-violet light. Given that the screen in a VR headset is a smartphone screen placed close to the eyes, could it also be a problem for VR or do the len...

Thinking of skipping DK2

$400 sort of puts it in the range of real devs only. I'm just a hobbyist not sure if the changes warrant upgrading yet.I've already done positional tracking with the rift and Kinect. I'm thinking my VR budget would be better spent tinkering with some...

Not that my opinion matters VS $2B but...

I'm very disappointed by the FB deal. I was hoping that Oculus would tough it out, and eventually become a private company like Valve. Become one of the legendary companies among gamers who care. Become a company spawned from the community, funded by...

DK2 camera

It seems that I misread some parts of the DK2 spec, and thought that the camera had been moved onto the HMD itself. I assumed that this would work using the same methods used by the Kinect, but in reverse. I.e., by tracking the "movement" of the outs...

Will DK2 work with P5 Glove, Kinect, or Wiimote?

Will the DK2 work with other IR VR input devices like the Essential Reality P5 Glove, the Kinect, or the Wii Remote? Or will they interfere?I'm assuming the Wii Remote will still work, since its camera is facing the opposite direction (until you aim ...

RIP Oculus, VR revolution: see you in another 15 years

Facebook paid 2 billions on Oculus, they will want to get that money back in time and there is only a single way a company like facebooks does that. A way that will without doubt kill any hardware business. Why couldn't they just invest the same amou...
