The Near Future of VR...
If we took a glimpse of the state of XR from the annual Consumer Electronics Show, we would have to say it's quite bleak. I WAS BORED!
But despite this, I tried to make a full-length video of some neat things I saw/heard while at the event. Hope you enjoy

    Having a Quest 3, I felt like the next step was the Beyond, honestly was really considering getting it toward the middle of July but, after watching more and more reviews, even ones newer then this one, I'm leaning more towards waiting for something that learns from the Beyond, something with larger lenses, with better edge to edge clarity, and maybe eye tracking, eye tracking I think will be the next step in what attracts VR enthusiasts. I hope Bigscreen really has these two things at the top of their list for later versions, because someone will, given almost every reviewer mentions, customer support from Bigscreen is better then any other, and I really don't want meta to win, just get too much RP1 bad guy vibes, also passthrough is cool, but I'd take eye tracking over passthrough any day.

    Issue with low brightness is that the oiled panels suck at being equal. If you go low brightness in a dark scene, one eye will be darker, and there will be spots of patches of black. I’ve had three headsets, they all do it. And you lose dynamic range. It might seem better, but it compresses the tones to be one tone. If you raise the brightness you get a much larger range of darks. Also. Fuck mura.

    You have a habit of starting to read a question or comment out loud, saying only the first 2-3 words of it, and then immediately launching into answering. This can leave your audience without context about what you're responding to, especially if they're just listening to your stream in the background. Heck, even with the live chat up you sometimes offer so little context that it can be difficult to figure out which comment you're responding to.

    1400 euro for JUST the glasses with 90hrz, no headset, no controllers, no base stations included. You also have no adjustable IPD. Then there is the fact their scanning isn't always correct and you have to send it back. Ontop of that it's a PERSONAL device because NO ONE in your household can use it because it has been fitted for you alone.. Yeah.. no thank you.. not for 1400 euros.. For that money I expect 3 changes in the future: Adjustable IPD, Controllers included and extra face covers of different materials so we can pick the one that feel best for us.

    @Sycophantichallenger 15 днів тому

    Ughh... I'm STILL waiting for deckard... This is tiresome. I refuse to interface with facebook in VR, so quest is out. I strongly considered the big-screen beyond, but having to buy a set of trackers AND controllers on top of that... the price tag was just too much for a cobbled together experience. I REALLY hope that Deckard, when it releases was worth the wait. I've only ever owned the Oculus Rift CV1 which I haven't used in years... but I keep waiting to get back in to VR, but nothing has sufficiently wowed me. Like there hasn't been a reasonably priced headset where VR youtubers can state unequivocably, THIS is the THE headset. I'm fine with dropping some cash, but every time I compare quality with price-point, I keep coming back to Varjo, and I'm just not willing to drop that kind of money on what might end up, just sitting in a corner.

    • @SargonDragon
      @SargonDragon 12 днів тому

      I am becoming more and mre convinced that the Deckard is not coming anymore. I believe it's a real project, but the time that it needed to release has already come and past. We're now in a time where the Deckard would be releasing into a market where it would be increasingly irrelevant with each day that passes.

    Great show. Achieving a laptop or display replacement can’t be done through "gaming”. Without addressing the significant involvement of everyday businesses and enterprise, this transition is unlikely. The pundits said AVP needed developers and a “killer app” to succeed, but Apple understands that getting the entire business community to take XR seriously is crucial. Enterprises could never base their future on the Quest 3. Apple aims to show companies like Visa, Amazon, Universal, JP Morgan, DSW, Walmart.., that VR is the future. As more corporations introduce apps, more consumers will invest in VR. I believe the proliferation of corporate apps in the AVP will be the best key to determining XR’s future.
