Unlike other systems, hmd, contollers and trackers are responcible for tracking and calculating position, this require some computing power that costs. Valve dont take any fees to use technology and they dont require you to use electronics there ic partner provide, so the more this technology gets adapted more cheaper solution will show up, but due to way this techology work it will always be bit more expensive, still best tracking most open vr technology you can get for normal mortals prices.

The Mack Attack It's only the future when it can achieve the following 4 tasks: 1. Not require wearing such an extensive piece of equipment on our faces that obstructs 100% vision. Instead of wearing the devices, we need the devices to be external and mobile. A tethered drone (for power etc.. once battery technology improves wireless version could be released) using Ionic Thrusters for silent movement could track a user remotely. As projection technology improves, we would see the user may only need to wear a pair of special clear lens wrap-around glasses which provide a surface for the drone to project your immersive display onto.. or it could project directly onto the surface of your eyes. Directional audio projected to the user exclusively We saw how, although 3D glasses and tv's and devices were all the rage.. they never quite took off to become the new mainstream like we first anticipated they would. The main issues are.. a lack of industry standards, the requirement of wearing a powered headset that communicates using hefty wireless radiation waves right near your brain (the more data you need to transfer the stronger the frequency needs to be and for full VR it's likely a LOT of data.. plus latency handling means it will need to be sending large data at high speeds). I'm sceptical of this technology reaching absolute mainstream within the next 2 years. I'd love it to happen but there are some serious social, medical and physical barriers that need to be overcome for that to happen. 2. 100% deal with the issues of VR Sickness 3. Become commercially affordable to the mainstream $200 price point for the headsets and around $60 for a pair of VR Gloves 4. VR Gloves currently out there don't provide the user with a joystick for navigating virtual environments effectively. Until they are so responsive that you can use a "virtual thumbstick" with no latency the input sector of VR will also be a bottle-neck. Oculus Touch does look good but will it meet that $60 for a pair .. price-point?

***** Alberto Martinez You can use just one Lighthouse base station and treat it the exact same way you would use Rift's camera or PS4's camera. It's actually less complicated because you don't even have to connect it to the PC/PS4. Even with one base station you will get a system with much bigger tracking volume, better precision, latency and accuracy. Rift's tracking is precise but not scalable (tracking more objects will be difficult, adding more cameras even more). Morpheus has problems with occlusion, loosing tracking, low vertical FOV of the camera and low Z-axis accuracy of tracking (depth is only estimated). Lighthouse is the only tracking system that fixes all these problems. Ironically, it's the only system that is actually consumer-ready from the technical quality and performance standpoint.
@RaydeusMX9 жыл бұрын
***** It's the other way around. Lighthouse is more accurate, faster, cheaper, scalable, consumer friendly and compatible than what Oculus is doing by far.

There is no practical reason to use a camera solution anymore.

@louislbnc9 жыл бұрын
slayemin I've worked on a similar system with rotating IR lasers that projects lines. The fact that the light is spread out in a line rather than focused on a point means that the energy hitting you diminishes very rapidly as you step away from the laser. Also, it's always spinning which means that it's spreading that light all over the room. The laser is also probably only a few mW... TL;DR other than if you're sticking your eye next to the lens, your eyes will see very little IR light.
