It doesn't appear to have positional sensors (the Oculus DK2 does, with a stationary dongle to compare your relative head movements).
It is very disorienting if you only have rotational support (as if your head's at the same point in space) and not also positional (head moving forward, backward, up, down, left, right, etc.)
- andybak 12y agoIs there any sensor or combination of sensors in modern phones capable of doing this? I suppose the obvious one is to use the front-facing camera and some external markers but that might be very CPU-intensive.
- yincrash 12y agoGoogle Tango is attempting to accomplish it by using the camera sensor to measure positional changes.[1] They showed it off at Google I/O, but it was a bit eclipsed by Cardboard (probably to the chagrin of the Tango team).

- efraim 12y agoProject Tango doesn't just use a camera to track position, it uses structured light - like the first kinect - with an infrared projector and camera to build up a 3D model of the environment. https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Project+Tango+Teardown/23835 https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Project+Tango+Teardown/23835
