Ah yes, "mindfulness sessions." Why won't these cowards just say drugs.

The front-facing display isn't as awful as expected. Has a really strong vignette and tinting on there in passthrough.

The Eyes Have It posted:I really like some of these ideas Yeah, some neat stuff, but $3k? Not unless I can expense it to work. But that's kinda the idea, I guess. Still though, tethered and no controllers. e: Wait, that dude's walking around, but I think I still see a tether? Is it tethered to a phone or battery or what? Where is that tether supposedly loving going while he's storming around that giant studio.

I think it's extremely smart that they made it look like the inside of one of those inexplicably lit helmets in assorted scifi series. It's probably the best bet they have to make it a futuristic cool effect instead of a totally dweeby one.

And the way it “clouds over” to let other people know when you’re inside VR-content is neato. But so far this is 100% a super premium Nreal Air so my hopes of Apple spurring a new VR content boom are quickly deflating.

Note that we didn't get to see what the other people on that conference call see looking back at her. We just see them, all conspicuously NOT using the device to participate.

LOLLLLL you can use the thing to capture "spatial" video, so I'm sure my family won't mind me wearing this at weddings and poo poo.

I only spent a few weeks with the Nreals, but I would pay handsomely for a super premium version of that. I hated the jitter of the screens when I had them locked in place, and the “screen pasted to your head” was good for games but not for work

Wherever the tether is going, they're carrying it.Hadlock posted:iButtplug So I guess either that or a battery. Or both!

It's actually a good idea, if you have two stereo rgb cameras in front for hand tracking and passthrough... why not use them too for video capture.

Watching this, it's clear how good Apple is at marketing. 85% of what they are showing is very mundane and/or can be done with a Quest 2 already, but still, people are 'woahhh'.

Just assume that any feature being displayed will get lambasted by internet nerds as being dumb, as is our right and our tradition.

I have zero interest in MR stuff (given current tech). Looks like I'll be looking hard at the Quest 3 for gaming.

Ok apple you can watch TV on your VR headset... wow we get it Most women don't wear flowy slacks with giant pockets, where is the lululemon yoga pants belt? I'm still convinced it's a butt plug battery pack, they can't expect women to wear pants with Real Pockets to use this, or a goofy iBelt Roadie posted:Who the gently caress is wearing a VR headset during their daughter's birthday? This is the most grim thing I've seen so far. It's one thing to starve to death in a corner plugged into VR, but watching your daughter's birthday cake candles get blown out in VR while you're in the room is just so, so much more grim than anything I could have imagined

More than just sports. Now we can beam draft kings ads directly into your brain. No, it's not creepy when your boss's floating head smiles at you over your hotel bed. Why do you ask? Wow I can watch theodore lasso on apple tv plus and play from 100 games like NBA 2k23 using a playstation controller. We are living in the future!!!

Here come some specs. Still waiting to hear if it'll do general PCVR use. I have to imagine that being able to announce a library like Steam on day 1 would be a huge boon, but maybe they don't want to mention a competitor at this sort of event.

At a minimum it can act as an external monitor for a Mac, Virtual Desktop style. No indication yet if this is generic functionality, or if it relies on the same hardware encoding optimizations as Sidecar.
