I think this is really cool, however I view VR headsets like monitors. I want them light, cool, and relocatable. I would imagine it would be cheaper to have this as two units. The headset, and "the box". The box does all the fun stuff and sends it wirelessly to the headset. Use a hardware compressor/decompress and a wifi 6e chip.
Really that's all I want, a headset that is comfy, stays cool, great lenses, and can be streamed to. My quest 2 can do this but it is not comfy, cool, and has god ray problems.
- vbuterin 5y agoIsn't the reason why this is typically not done that VR giving a good experience is very low-latency-dependent, and it's very hard to make wireless connections have an ultra-low latency?
- kanetw 5y agoYeah, pretty much. I think you can mitigate it a bit with clever tricks, but it's a lot of extra effort we'd rather not deal with this early on. Also, bandwidth is the big blocker. Compression adds latency and reduces quality, and the amount of data we're pushing is really high (27Gbps uncompressed)
