>Look for hidef wireless hmds in 20-36 months, not 20 years. How do you suppose that will happen? On-device computing hardware or a wireless tether? The latter appears to only be maybe possible with microwave radio, but requires constant line of sight which is a huge issue. The former may be possible depending on your definition of hidef. IMO I doubt it though, much of what makes VR immersive is having a HMD lightweight/comfortable enough that you forget it's on. That's hard enough when the only hardware in the HMD is essentially screens and an IMU. I can't imagine the added weight of CPU/GPU/batteries/etc not making a significant enough impact on comfort to make it not worth it, in the next 20-36 months. For reference, my standard of hidef VR right now, not in 20-36 months, is Vive level resolution/FOV/tracking accuracy and latency; I wouldn't put GearVR in that group, or any platform without submillimeter positional tracking for that matter.
