I am very interested in this use case since I travel frequently and would love a portable multi-monitor setup. The weight does not bother me and I have watched full movies before in comfort.
2 issues hold it back:
1. Typing and mousing require high res color passthrough cameras or high accuracy low latency hand and keyboard tracking. Neither is there yet.
2. The lenses have too much distortion and not a large enough sweet spot. Fine for gaming, they really don’t cut it when trying to work.
I would happily use a VR headset for a few hours of standing desk time a day if it were just a little more refined. The upcoming Quest Pro might have the needed features to make this a real option.
- Xonzo 4y agoI've tried numerous headsets and find the lens distortion / sweet spot to be very annoying. I returned my HP Reverb G2 because I was constantly moving the headset to get the center pin-sharp. If the headset even shifted slightly it was very noticeable. I wish all new headsets would come with a diopter dial so using glasses is a thing of the past.
- dahdum 4y agoWhy do you need high res color pass through for the keyboard and mouse? I don’t need to see them while working with a monitor so why with VR?
- dougmwne 4y agoI do kind of need to see them, otherwise I’m going to slam my hands into the desk or knock the mouse off the table. You are effectively blindfolded with the headset on.
