Windows holographic is basically UWP apps anyway. Otherwise you have to use something like unity and wrap it in something that will allow it to launch on the hololens. Its just a lot of jank for not a lot of benefit. The biggest downside to the hololens right now is the FOV. Looks like they took this to heart and decided to back VR as well as that basically kills all the negatives of having some crazy AR solution that doesn't work 100% well in reality. Also if these HMDs are using the same tech the holo-lens does, it might be a trip to barfsville as the current update rate/latency on the hololens is really bad for keeping up with positioning.

I gotta wonder what the chances are that those headsets get OpenVR support too. Seems like a no-brainer but I gotta wonder if licensing tracking tech from Microsoft comes with a few restrictions on implementation.

So I picked up a PSVR today. Is there currently any way to do 3D movies in it?

That's closed platforms for you. It shouldn't be long until someone throws together an OpenVR/OSVR driver for the PSVR so you can do whatever you want with it.

Vince MechMahon posted:Would this be a way to just plug it straight into my computer and have it work? Would I need the breakout box still, in this hypothetical situation? How would it do head tracking without the camera? Unsure. As I understand it the PSVR HMD is pretty standard equipment, USB and HDMI. It should be a matter of getting the optics dialed in right and re-implementing the glyph tracking they're using. People have already gotten the move controllers working. I doubt the breakout box will be necessary. The camera might be. I think the hardest part to end users is probably the keyed USB plug they're using as you'd probably have to botch something together to get it to plug into a standard USB port. The signalling should be compatible though, so only a passive adaptor would be required. SCheeseman fucked around with this message at 07:53 on Oct 27, 2016 |

Honestly if they could get just the looking to work I'd be fine with the depth not working. I kind of just wanna gently caress around with 3D and 360 video with it.

Man, it's too bad Microsoft poo poo the bed with their Hololens because now there's even less reason for Magic Leap to release. Hell, just give me Google Glass2 so I can geek out, without having to access my phone or look at my wrist whenever I need something.

Audioshield is fun but also so bad, I mean it is missing like 90% of the basic conveniences I would expect from a rythm game, wow. You cant even queue up songs and most songs seem full of boring deadspace even when there is music playing. I would really love the notes to stop coming from so high up the in the air all the time, and for there to be a shield style that doesnt involve a weird garbage grip angle...

I haven't played audioshield again since downloading SB. You punch beats to a song, punch harder for more points. Beat maps are user generated, so typically see 300-1000 punches per song.

Vince MechMahon posted:Do any videos even do depth? A lot of 180/360 videos have depth. Positional tracking won't work with any 180/360 videos though, since it always projects you at the center of the video sphere. If you watch something like a 3D blu ray (not sure if that's possible with the PSVR yet) on a virtual screen though, it gets a lot less sickening with positional tracking on.

This is the same company that decided that their 4K output capable, blu-ray equipped console refresh doesn't need to play 4K blu-rays. The latest evolution of the format they developed and pushed so hard that they paid off the competing format's main developer to give up. Somehow they decided that wasn't worth supporting even though the competition had confirmed they would be supporting it. I guess it's just not proprietary enough anymore, it's not the Sony way. (mostly joking but kinda not)

Regarding those Touch's on Ebay, it seems that you need to have a developer account to get the drivers for them to function, so they would be useless anyway. Alas.

Has copyright gone too far??? Realtalk, Zenimax should bugger off imo. Carmack left before the facebook buyout, I'm pretty sure they could have made him a better offer than oculus at the time, if they wanted him to actually stay. Then when Oculus got facebook'd, they were suddenly angry af that he left
