Goblin Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Yeah, the wording ”we made something for you” kind of implies ”for the masses”. I’m excited to see what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goblin Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Yes, StarVR produced a VR headset for high end commercial users. Pricey as well. No doubt about that. But it’s the wording ”for you”, on an open website, that is intriguing. Why that particular choice of words..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dopebogey Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 I hope it's for consumer use. That would be awesome. Their commercial sets are pretty sweet.:thumbup: That add is pretty cryptic though:shifty: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cordite Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 A bit early to find out for sure, but signs over the past few days have been pointing to an enterprise hmd with eye tracking. If so, why the misleading teaser? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ram0506 Posted August 15, 2018 Author Share Posted August 15, 2018 This is, what the homepage of StarVR says: StarVR Corporation is dedicated to the innovation of professional virtual reality solutions, with a focus on high-end enterprise applications and location-based entertainment. If they produce the StarVR One only for professional use and arcade, there is no reason for Pimax to be too much worried at the moment.

hansangb Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 But everyone is a nobody until they are a somebody, no? Besides, in reading through the website, it doesn't look like DCS will even work with it. "Development of new content or upgrading your existing VR experience to our premium wide FOV platform is made easy with our fully featured SDK." The 210 FoV and foveated rendering sure sounds cool. hsb HW Spec in Spoiler --- i7-10700K Direct-To-Die/OC'ed to 5.1GHz, MSI Z490 MB, 32GB DDR4 3200MHz, EVGA 2080 Ti FTW3, NVMe+SSD, Win 10 x64 Pro, MFG, Warthog, TM MFDs, Komodo Huey set, Rverbe G1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ram0506 Posted August 16, 2018 Author Share Posted August 16, 2018 Specs are really looking good. But I could imagine, that as soon as we see the price tag, it will become obvious, that this HMD is made for professional use.

Shack Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Love of Pimax is waning fast... I just dont get a warm fuzzy anymore about their "8K", not to mention I saw a youtube of a guy testing the Pimax 8K and the best they can do was to send the tester ( who they knew was going to broadcast to the world on his youtube channel) a VR set that was taped together by scotch tape and rubber bands. Says alot to me about this OEM. I think I'll wait for StarVr or even Extal if they go for the masses.

wormeaten Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 There is one thing what is recently confirmed, Pimax8K is not 200FOV. That is deception. Real horizontal FOV is not confirmed. Pimax doesn't want to publish it and testers can't do that because of NDA. Point is Pimax showing 200FOV but diagonally what is not real FOV, only real FOV is horizontal as any other VR device is shoving they FOV. Pimax real FOV is somewhere around 170. It is still good and much better but I think it is fair to warn you to know what to expect to not be disappointed when you realize that. I'm not pro or against anyone or anything.

Kind of like them referring to the device in development as an 8K device. Much like it's predecessor the 4k. I wish them well as I want all of VR to be successful, but don't care much with the way they are loose with facts and the way they market the product.

And very conveniently loose with the naming/branding of those “facts”. Puts a sour taste towards Pimax in my mouth as well.
