Has anybody hacked regular consumer VR headsets for working with regular apps?
- arc-in-space 5y agoWell, the non-standalone ones can already do whatever you want them to since they're just a display
- newswasboring 5y agoFor oculus quest 2 there is already a focus on office work. From the start we've had Virtual Desktop and from v28 software update Oculus itself has had several office focused moves.
- mekkkkkk 5y agoI have played around with it, and the resolution just isn't there. The desktop space in VR is ironically less than on a laptop, because every window has to be massive to be usable at all. In a future with 2x4K res or something in that ballpark, this might be interesting.
- andybak 5y agoIf you're anything like me, by your mid-forties you aren't going to need 4k per eye. The Quest 2 is already pretty much as sharp as my eyes can resolve - and that's with prescription glasses.
- mekkkkkk 5y agoI suppose that's an alternative use case for the tech - to simulate and get an understanding of how to build UX that is friendly towards those with poor eyesight. Haha.
