The HTC Vive was originally supposed to be launched in 2015. Instead, HTC and Valve held it because of a technological breakthrough: a front-facing camera. It’s an undeniably big change — and it’s undeniably cool.

I’m telling you that VR is not finally there yet. It is not ready for the consumer because it is way too uncomfortable and complicated to wear and you need all these senors in your room… I’d like to know how many Vives they have sold in 2015.. And how many they will sell this year. I guess not many. Maybe in 20 years we’ll use VR sometimes.. For now it is just a glimps in the future thats it
me 2nd
This is probably the most underwhelming thing they’ve seen at CES lol. “Come check out our VR headset, now you can be in this mundane room VIRTUALLY.
Portal!!
It’s the best design ever.
Meh, virtual reality doesn’t have enough GPU power yet for most consumers, especially the 0’Culus games you see tested, they required insane PC specs that most people whine about having to afford now. this is why it will not be popular mainstream til 2017. Its cool and all, but not true virtual reality by definition
Wait really no comments at all about how the product performed?
this is literally Wii 2.0 and will flop

That looks so awesome. What a great form factor, looks so good!
They actually did put the steam controller touch pads on there!
Stop all production! We need to put a camera on this thing!
congratulations 900k
Not a front-facing camera(that’s a selfie camera). It’s a camera that faces forward or external camera.

So this was the “revolutionary” thing they were talking about? Disappointing if you ask me.
Let it be said that AH BET MY BALLS it will not be ready by April. They haven’t even locked down on the specs yet.
Ady if I remember right, that was not water you were drinking with your VR headset. 🙂
actually ive decided to unsub from your youtube, facey and twitter.
Chaperon? How is this system related to an enzyme?
exciting technology, lucky people having access:)
Can the front face camera use to create holoLens in the real world? 🙂
They should all have that! duh! My biggest complaint of all VR. Not “breakthrough” at all.
does anyone now what tripod she uses for the htc vive senses?
5:01 PM 7/15/2016 Where was this at? Vegas? I didn’t know HTC Vive Pre was in Vegas as a demo or whatever that is. I would of stopped by if I was INVITED. I was going to just walk around naked with it on didn’t know there was a camera.
How you turn on front camra?
