NeilWillis Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Fingers crossed. Hi Res, wide field of view, eye tracking, it seems to tick the right boxes. Let's hope a pair of fully functioning glove controllers complete the list too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M1Combat Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 And that the glove controllers are optional... ;) Nvidia RTX3080 (HP Reverb), AMD 3800x Asus Prime X570P, 64GB G-Skill RipJaw 3600 Saitek X-65F and Fanatec Club-Sport Pedals (Using VJoy and Gremlin to remap Throttle and Clutch into a Rudder axis) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myst Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Holy hell though even with 'foveated rendering', my rough hack amateur estimate based on my Vive is that the Google headset is going to take one monster of a computer... Having said that...it sounds pretty ideal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FragBum Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Prolly not so much on the CPU but might need a GPU farm,.. :music_whistling: Although what happens if you independently move you eyes? Control is an illusion which usually shatters at the least expected moment. Gazelle Mini-gun version is endorphins with rotors. See above.

PhilSkyfire Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Cool thing - really eager to learn more about it. Hopefully not too much increase in field-of-view, so that the image is getting a lot sharper.

lemoen Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 This isn't a headset, just a display, according to the article. For those those that think that this will require multiple 1080Tis, think again. With Foveated rendering only the part of the display where you are looking will be rendered at full resolution, which for this display is around 3x that of the rift / vive. The rest of the display can be rendered at a much lower resolution because you don't need to see as fine details there, and you can't. Researchers reckon about 2x-3x increase in performance using foveated renderring, so it may not be as bad as one would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NineGzuz Posted March 21, 2018 Author Share Posted March 21, 2018 (edited) misleading post... not new headset.. but new display. A new display for a VR headset! Unless you can think of some other way to stick a 4.3" 5k screen in front of your face ;-) Their presentation lists: "18 Mpixel 4.3-in. 1443-ppi 120-Hz OLED Display for Wide-Field-of-View High-Acuity Head-Mounted Displays" I guess it's possible they won't be showing it off inside a headset (although that would seem kind of silly to me, given the specifications, since the naked eyes would not do a screen like this any justice).While it doesn't say it directly, it strongly suggests that 5k headset is coming soon and that is exciting to me :D Edited March 21, 2018 by NineGzuz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hannibal Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 your post should have said, new display by google shown in may for vr headsets. your thread title is misleading because it is read as the new google vr headset by google in may. find me on steam! username: Hannibal_A101A http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197969447179 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh please, you make it sound like I've cheated you out of something. I did my best with the limited title space, and that's why I posted the article so that everyone could get the full details. Like I said, it's a head mounted display, they will most likely be showing it inside a headset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sze5003 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 This is what I'm waiting for I suppose. My oculus will do for now. But since these will be lenses I wonder if they will be placed in a current hmd. Would be cool if we could just buy the lenses and switch the ones out from the oculus but I don't think that is possible.

Thick8 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 So about the time the 1180ti comes so should a headset with this screen. That would be a perfect upgrade for my 1080ti/Odyssey combo.
