History of VR Technology, But I Have to Explain in VR | Tech Rules

[@TechRules]

Get 20% OFF + Free Shipping @Manscaped with code TECHRULES at → www.manscaped.com/techrules Hey everyone! Unfortunately, this video has a bit of an issue with resolution. Tilt Brush wasn't running at the resolution I had set it to and opted to use the monitor resolution instead, which kind of broke everything. Thankfully, I still managed to salvage the avatar capture, and the end result doesn't look too terrible. Happy Halloween! Important Note: This does not make me a VTuber and any comments saying that this does make me a VTuber are factually incorrect. EDIT: Gonna do corrections a little early this time around since a lot of people made some really good points, and I want to address them sooner rather than later. Firstly, judging from the comments I've gotten so far, my criticism of Oculus's new tracking seems to have come across as too harsh. I want to reiterate that the majority of users do NOT have issues as bad as what you see in the video, and if they do it's typically only in rare situations. It was not my intention to insinuate that the Quest OR the Rift S has poor tracking. I was mainly trying to highlight the controversy from switching over. On that note, I didn't bother talking about the newer VR revelations (Quest 2) since this was a history video, and I already felt the video was still way too long after the cuts I already made. It may be in my best interest to make a follow-up video in the future addressing this, once I fine-tune this format a bit to make it work a little better. And the big thing I wanted to address: I completely glossed over Windows Mixed Reality! That was the ACTUAL first big implementation of inside-out tracking and was one of THE MOST affordable ways to get into VR! If I go through with the follow-up, I plan to fix this mistake immediately. WMR users, sorry for perpetuating the stereotype that y'all don't exist. 😔

[@PlayerZeroStart]

What's WMR?

[@Mine18x]

@@PlayerZeroStart WMR is an abbreviation of Windows Mixed Reality, Microsoft's line of VR (Not AR, ignore the name) Headsets that had initial designs and specs given by microsoft to PC OEMS (Lenovo, Asus, Acer, HP, Dell, and Samsung) and they were supposed to modify them and release them as products (with only HP and Samsung modifying them in any way), with microsoft handling the software, having it built-in into windows 10 as the Mixed Reality Setup or something. Using 2 cameras, and a plethora of led lights on the controllers, the hmd could track your room and controllers without the use of external sensors, thus being one of the first major headsets with inside-out tracking. Unfortunately, they never had great success in 2017 when they were released as they weren't advertized much, and the wmr platform wasn't/isn't as developed as the Vive and oculus ecosystem were/are. WMR became slightly popular when headset went on major discounts becoming viable budget options to get into VR. (They also had support for SteamVR content) Most WMR headsets you will find nowadays are used on eBay, except the HP Reverb G2, which is coming in November for the first preorders.

This man is a hero, getting sponsored by a literal ballshaving company.

[@Redcactus5]

The quest used a vslam (visual simultaneous localization and mapping) algorithm. It picked out stationary objects and used their relieve positions, orientations, faces showing, texture, amount of the texture showing, side of the texture showing, and perceived sizes as well as an internal gyroscope and accelerometer sensors to determine its relive position. Ironically this same system is used on many smart robotic vacuums. Also the headset had 4 cameras, one per front corner. Also the constellation system would flash the lights in a specific order as well as having a unique constellation for each face to help with accuracy and orientation. While the htc vive system used infrared sweeps of the room and recording how long it took for the sensors to revive the signal. However in order to get accurate tracking they had to include a synchronization cable to make lighthouses sweep at exactly the same time. Also modern 3D movie glasses use polarizers to split the image.

[@sud1881]

You know once VR becomes more consumer friendly I wonder if it’s even possible to allow you to wear glasses while wearing a headset because by design a headset kind of screws over people who need glasses.

Tech Rules is run by a machine ghost that can now inhabit a VR headset to make themselves seem real. Also, I own an Oculus Quest, and I would not complain about the tracker reliability. They have quirky moments, but they work 99% of the time, including in fast-paced games like Beat Saber. The Hand-Tracking thing Oculus is experimenting with seems interesting, but it is far too unreliable to be anything more than a gimmick at this point. I also hope the intrusion of Facebook into the Quest 2 doesn't drive too many people away.

It's honestly pretty simple. Each ghost has several passive phases they alternate between with varying consistency: Idle - The ghost is doing nothing Wander - The ghost picks a nearby possible point and moves to it. Interact - The ghost uses a nearby non-throwable object, like a door Throw - The ghost throws something Ability - The ghost attempts to use its ability if it has one Event - The ghost picks one of several allowed ghost events and physically manifests for a moment Kick Power Interaction - The ghost specifically interacts with the fusebox if it can DOTS Wander - The ghost manifests in DOTS and wanders, only if it can Hunt Start When a ghost starts Hunting, they have three phases: Wander - The ghost picks a spot to wander to in an attempt to find a target Track - The ghost tries to pursue a target it lost line of sight with or heard a sound Pursue - The ghost sees a potential target and will give pursuit relentlessly.

[@davidfriedman9014]

Interesting video. I personally have never owned a VR system for basically the exact reasons you said. They're rather expensive and there aren't a lot of good games out (besides Half Life Alyx based on what I've heard). Though I also hope that not only will the prices go down, and the quantity of games go up, but also that things which increase immersion like leg tracking and more will become easier to find and purchase. Once all of these things take place, I will happily get a VR system, but until then I shall patiently wait.

[@oddgbmo3036]

But there are plenty of games? Heck even games from the 90s and early 2000s have been ported to vr there's so many and for full body tracking it isn't a necessity especially when playing alone

[@Alexa_Temujin]

I enjoyed the video. I know two people with VR, myself and a family friend. Two notes, I feel windows mixed reality was kind of skipped over for early consumer inside-out tracking. Furthermore, Rift S was like outsourced to a different company than Facebook and then didn't have the upkeep that happened with the quest on software updates (though I have an index, as why live reasonably when you can have the best tech and also be poor).

[@knctvrknctvr]

god damn i love this, the free-form style, the casual comedy, it's great, outstanding

[@Potassiumkloride]

I'd like to add that another thing that still needs to improve for VR to become mainstream is the visual mismatch issue. I'm someone who owns a VR headset and even I don't use it very often because I can't play most games on it for more than 30 minutes before I start feeling sick in some way (motion sickness, headache, vertigo, etc) and I'm someone who'd never even experienced motion sickness before I tried VR. It makes it hard to choose to play a game using it when I know the session is going to leave me physically uncomfortable. One thing I'd like to see become the norm in VR games is just offering more customization for your virtual representation (limb length, height, eye distance, etc). Even when I've tried out higher end rigs like the Vive, I've found that there will often be something that's just off enough that it makes the experience more taxing than it should be, but nothing I could do to try and fix it. I just had to deal with it until I felt too awful to keep playing. Additionally, the ability to save your settings to a unique profile. For games where you might want to take turns with other people (Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, for example), it can be especially frustrating when every time someone swaps out, the new person has to spend a few minutes fiddling with settings to change it to what they need.

[@GreenDave113]

The Inside out tracking problems aren't nearly as bad as you describe. I own a Rift S, have tried it in multiple rooms and lighting conditions and the only problems I ever faced was with my room being too dark. One light and it was once again perfect. And the controllers even better. You can cause a controller to drift if you obstruct it, but I can remember only 1 time where that happened. And it lasted about a second. I have had no issues with blind spots, even besides my body, where games sometimes leave weapon slots. Other than that, great video!

[@thewolfenknight37]

This is a really comprehensive video and explains how vr works in a simple, fun way! The only thing I believe you missed was how smartphone component development didn't only help what goes into standard VR headsets, but how smartphone vr became a super easy way for the general public to try out vr, with the Oculus backed Samsung Gear and the Google Pixel Daydream, and a slew of 3rd party android apps and "headsets". Still fairly rudimentary, especially when the vive was in all ways superior, I remember seeing these things all over, and I believe smartphone vr was the stepping stone to the quest headsets and their success. And now with second edition of the quest, which I've had the pleasure of using, things keep looking up, with 90hz refresh rates and great improvements to the inside out tracking. I can't wait to see where we go from here!

Good idea but doesn’t cover big rooms or outside (let’s be honest nobody will play VR outside) this could just be a solution to smaller rooms for cheap so if this was implemented some people would be fine as a solution (Edit) I just realize I could get backlash for what I said about playing outside the reason for me saying nobody will play outside is because then you could run into hardware problems or something and people who play vr probably don’t want to be outside in the first place. However if you have a reason for why people want to VR outside then tell everyone or you could just tell me I’m a dumb idiot who knows nothing about VR and computers (which is true)

Perhaps a history of adult games would be better, due to text adventure, arcade, and point and clicks existing possibly before what could be called the first visual novel hentai-type games (which in itself is text adventure but with more visuals/audio).

22:25 Yep... I was one of the people who didn't have any issues. My DK2 could track so well, I moved it to the ceiling and gave myself 270 degrees of freedom standing VR. Oh, and the hand controllers? Razer Hydras. I still have both.

The skull scare was amazing lol great video! Educational, funny, excellent

[@homerman76]

Let's just hope Facebook's current stream of bad business decisions to force itself into the Quest 2 doesn't hurt the progress that's been made :/

Too late

I got a psvr system a year ago and showed it off and praised it and since then I've had at least 2 of my friends also get some version of VR :) I also have 2 other friends that had it before me and I tried it out with them before I decided that I needed one. Both of them have the Vive. The best way to promote VR is to introduce it to your friends that play games. That's how this spreads because one of the because obstacles is how to advertise it. Because unless you put on the headset, you don't know what VR is like. Beat Saber is absolutely the best introductory VR game and is universally the first game I introduce people to. Some other games I've loved in VR: Pixel Ripped 1995 brought me back to being a kid in the 90s, Pistol Whip is beat saberxsuperhot fanfic and I love it, Star Wars Squadrons just feels perfect, and Astrobot is exactly how we should be approaching VR platformers and I really hope more comes out that I can play on the ps4. I think these are games doing the idea of VR gaming right.

this was, without a doubt, the funniest video i saw in months, the skull part on 32:08 was so amazing. it was just a non stop trainwreck and i loved every second of it.

[@milkcappy]

in the least "this video is boring" way possible, i could fall asleep listening to this video :) your voice is really nice, n i definitely feel like your personality comes across really well when you can see the hand motions through vr!! hope this wasn't weird LMFAO i just love ur voice

[@nightlypiano41]

I need to see something like this where everyone is in a classroom or something and you just talk

Mans has 14 videos and 300K subscribers, and he has earned every single damn one of them. This channel is the best.

VR Robot that can't draw tells you the history of VR

[@lauge222]

this channel have to get bigger. the quality is amazing, like something multi million subscriber channels almost cant get up to.

[@acdgamer7292]

Man it's disappointing seeing awesome videos like these not get as many views as the more viral ones based on popular games.

[@CTKnoll]

So for anyone wondering about how the Quest works to map your space from the inside-out, it's an algorithm called SLAM: simultaneous location and mapping. As someone who works in the AR industry, is it, in fact, basically magic in the guise of math.

[@momstachio]

32:02 has probably my favorite scene in this video, lol. Real talk though, this is such a cool idea!

[@Qwenter123]

This might be my favorite video of all time. Watching you get freaked out by everything in VR is... Entertaining to say the least.

[@DankLordDemaar]

36:00 Suuure having my controller slide diagonally away through a wall is totally accurate.

[@catfoodzplz]

This was really fun and cool! For some reason the end made me tear up, I guess because it’s nice to feel excited and hopeful about something for once. Thanks for that!

[@chibixchan4425]

13:09 " do me a favour and take a look at your eye "

[@chatrin]

I literally just found your channel and finished watching the FNAF vid, but holy shiz this VR stuff is hilarious and cute. If you ever get the opportunity please make more in VR. I'm subscribing!

[@thisstatementisfalsenothin5312]

VR sounds like it would be super cool for playing D&D Like helping you really visualize what you just did to that poor bandit by making you actually act out what you did
