I already use a Das Ultimate keyboard. No key caps. It's pretty straightforward to learn the keyboard if you don't fall back on looking. It's like full immersion in a foreign language. If you _have_ remember things, then you will.
So I can type while wearing an Oculus Rift. It's not a problem. And I'm sure you can do it too.
- obiefernandez 9y agoThat's not exactly what I mean. It looks like most VR rigs these days are using some sort of control thing that you hold in your hand. Doesn't look like you could type (with more than one finger of each hand) and hold it at the same time. On the other hand, maybe lightweight haptic gloves are a thing already and I just don't know about it.
- dEnigma 9y agoMaybe some kind of (improved) Leap Motion finger tracking combined with a virtual keyboard would be acceptable?
- cgallello 9y agoGloves aren't really a mainstream consumer product yet in a way that you'd expect in the future. When I'm typing in VR, I have to put my controllers down to the side of the keyboard. Easy to pick them back up though. It certainly would be nice to have the keyboard tracked so I don't have to slide my hands on the desk to look for it, but once I grab it, typing is fine.
- dEnigma 9y ago>No key caps I think you mean "blank key caps". The alternative could be pretty painful, depending on the type of switch.
