cool!
Nerds!
just give me saints row 4 in VR already. That would be dope as fuck
This same design was also made at the Institute for Biological Cybernetics.. I’m not sure if they’re still improving their version(Or it could be the same, I haven’t researched it lately ) but the video I saw it on was “Real Life Holodeck with an Oculus Rift — Computerphile”.
Well she’s a bit cynical, as an owner of a dk2 for almost a year now, all I can say is that its almost perfect feeling already
I wish the verge would bring back “this is my next”
Haha the best is when she conducts the interview while wearing the VR gear. SO funny.
Are you single Adi Robertson
Hjalmar Nyman, your virtualboy
This seems to be very similar to what the Microsoft Hololens is doing, just without the motion tracking cameras in the room.
Mark Hamill?
The revival of arcades? For the 21st century.
Hypothetically, it could be a large VR space in a mall or store. This could be for any form of media. Individuals or a group choose what media to interact with, games, movies, or music. So the VR space could perform as a club, lazer tag, physical therapy, military drills or as a store. With or without a VR headset.
It would need better graphics, sounds, as they can be to the expectation the user.
Hey kids you have to start somewhere. Just think about if you showed this to someone 20 years ago. They would be blown away. Things will get better over time.
Virginia FTW
That dude looks like Mark Hamill.
Oh good news about virginia tec? That’s nice
AWESOME! It would be cool for an architecture firm to have a mini room like this to display what a design looks like to clients who have a hard time understanding drawings and renderings. The implications are endless!
There is so much money being thrown at these things to create solutions that could be done with the fraction of the costs. The IR cameras used to track the dots is crazy expensive!
Nothing new here. Just some old tech. But yeah, what else was i expecting from todays universities. Research as moved on to other places.
Bravo. Didn’t compare it to an iPhone
Mark Hamill works at VTech?
I know I’m being a little nerdy but I wonder if they are trying to make a virtual reality on the level of Sao. If I’m bothering anyone by being nerdy sorry, but I want to see tech of that level in my life time.
g
I would dedicate a whole room to this. My god I hope they figure this shit out good enough before I die
Wow one year later this looks so shitty and out dated! Amazing. HTC Vive can all those things that are talked about there way better, with better graphics, way more users and lower latency.
still waiting for the technolgy to have sex with the vitrual person of my dreams
WHAT!!!?? A VERGE VIDEO WITHOUT HAVING TO VISIT THAT RETARDED WEBSITE????
THE VERGE becomes VERGE-inia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
la pensée peut à elle seule capter puis de 10000 pensées à la séconde je trouve cela
la capacité reflexive doit etre beaucoup developpé par les personnes qui trouvent une grande expérience innovatrice dans ce domaine elle pourrait sans doute occuper une place importantes dans la societé futuriste et cela developperait l’intellect et l’intelligence des etres dans les 10 années à venir
BLACK MIRROR!!
I think the real question is, can we play video games here?
Looking at this four years later, we now have Oculus Quest, which does everything in this video, but doesn’t need a good computer and can be used in your living room…
They use VR in Medicine , Surgeons and doctors say its crazy helpful, but for this , idk
the headset is too cumbersome.
