So I was wondering; What are the odds of the consumer version of the Oculus Rift releasing with an interchangeable faceplate, this would make it easy and fun for people to purchase modular faceplates to the front of the Rift that add cool designs and...
I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere, and it's gotten me curious. We've seen that there are hardware contrast+brightness buttons on the control unit, but is there a way to control these parameters through the SDK? I can't seem to find anything in t...
Hello!I'm really eager to get my hands on a Oculus, but i was surprised when i saw that more than a third of the product's price is only the shipping cost ($110). I was wondering is there an alternative way of delivery? As with the shipping and custo...
I know i'm definitely in the minority here, but all my development software is on my Mac. I've put a lot of money into software that I'd love not to got to waste. I've herd Mac support might be in the works, does anyone know if this is true and if so...
It's finally here!! I got the shipping notice this morning and it arrived before I got home from work.In all of my excitement, I completely forgot that I don't have any windows boxes to use with this. oops. Anyone have any idea when the Mac version o...
There are 3 dev kits on ebay I see. I see a lot of people that dont want to wait in these forums. I guess if you got the cash you dont have too.
Does anyone have got the rift development kit around Atlanta area?. Maybe there should be a separate section based on local area - so that people who have already gotten the rift can share and also to discuss potential collaboration. I saw a similar ...
Hey Oculus fans!My name is Jonathan and I am fascinated by virtual reality. I work with a company who has ordered a couple of units but I think there is a long waiting list.You might be interested to know that I recently interviewed Jan Goetgeluk the...
I was just wondering if there were any customs charges to the UK, or whether or not they were included in the shipping. I purchased my rift about 3 weeks ago, so I'm not expecting it for a while, but I would appreciate knowing if I'm going to be sudd...
I was a bit overly pushy about commication a few weeks back but i laid off because some of the info i got turned out i was wrong, however its been over two weeks since they first started shpping, and the 2nd week in April i would have figured by now ...
I don't know if anyone has suggested this before, but how cool would it be to combine the Rift with the Leap Motion gadget? (https://www.leapmotion.com/). I've ordered one. The biggest downside? Now instead of just waiting for my Rift to arrive, I al...
Hey, folks! We know latency is as critical as frame rate for VR, but I'm having a really hard time finding latency benchmarks for consumer video cards. So...Doesn't anyone have any suggestions for cards or card features that we should keep an eye out...
Is anyone planning to move the old VR content like VRML content to the Rift?I cant imagine that it would be any use beyond a curiosity and with all the strange peripherals I used to see on tech shows probably impractical but it would be great to see ...
Development on Windows 7 or Windows 8? What does the Oculus Team prefer?
I know everyone is trying to find out how things are going, so instead of spamming Oculus to find out how shipping is going how about if you already received your rift and your order number is following the last order number in this discussion then p...
Just got my dev kit today. I am very excited about the technology and possibilities, but I must confess that it doesn't appear quite ready yet for some of the things I was hoping to use it for.Specifically, I am personally less interested in gaming a...
Great, positive interview from a non-techie/gamer perspective.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQc5htN2utQ(Not sure why the [YouTube] tag isn't working, am I doing something wrong CyberReality?)
I could be wrong, but I believe VR sickness will be a major problem that will force developers to build applications that minimize user movement. While a READY PLAYER ONE vision of VR is tantalizing, I don't see the sickness problem being solved anyt...
Arrived yesterday, tried it out last night, blogged this am.http://unseenu.quora.com/Its-an-Oculus-Morning
Hi Oculus,as there is no "Feature requests" board I gotta have to post it here (please move if it doesn't fit in here).Please implement this "hotfix" to the consumer version for the horizontal vision:http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pl ... 8FSuxA...
An interesting technique to create the illusion of infinite virtual spaces in a finite physical space. http://phys.org/news/2013-04-virtual-reality-team-infinite-environments.html
Somebody asked for a closeup photo of the Rift screen in another thread. I can't find the exact post anymore, so I will post it in a new thread.The photo below shows reasonably accurate how the pixels look on the Rift screen (left side of the photo i...
My friend and I did a full teardown of the rift. We made a video of it, and then put it on youtube. Here is a link to the youtube video.http://www.reddit.com/r/oculus/comments ... _teardown/
It seems like it could be possible to connect multiple hydras for additional tracking. With additional hydra(s) you could track head position, both hands, and possibly even feet. Has anyone tried this yet to see if it works in any of the engines?
It seems that if the consumer version is 1080p, it will be pretty darn big.I made a picture ( see link below ) I don't know if that is accurate but im pretty sure it is.So won't having higher resolution make the Rift bigger and probably slightly heav...
If you bind that key to W with xPadder, would that make you move forward? I have not confirmed this but does it work?
Hi there,I wonder if the next DevKit (or at least the consumer version) will have a headphone jack on the HMD itself? As the device is connected per HDMI anyway, this should not be a real problem, doesn't cost much but will make the setup much easier...
Hello,First of all, I'm currently living in Mexico. Normally when ordering from US-based stores, I NEVER choose the option to ship internationally because from experience, I have received opened stuff, broken stuff, and paid stupidly high import fees...
