The common feature of metaverse bulls seems to be asserting without evidence that pixel density will increase massively from its current state, such that emulating several monitors will be viable.
I see no reason to believe this is true. It’s not the case that all technology you can imagine will eventually exist. Things always level off eventually, which is why I don’t have a 10 GHz processor today.
- jlmorton 4y agoI agree there are limitations, but Meta announced Project Cambria last year, with an expected resolution of 1230 DPI, up from 770 on Quest Pro. If they can achieve that, people are going to start doing real work on the headsets.
- School-Cotton 4y agoWhat DPI do you estimate would be needed to emulate three 50-inch monitors?
- jlmorton 4y agoTo be honest, I’m not an expert, and you’d just be getting a lay opinion. They say human vision can discern about 60 pixels per degree. I believe Quest Pro achieves about 20, and Project Cambria might push 30. Note that the 1200 DPI is per eye.
