This is a great improvement, but unless the video that you posted is for a different product, the Varjo VR headset has been billed as an enterprise unit with a projected retail price (2018-19) of somewhere between $5,000 and $10,000 US. Maybe LM will buy a few when they are released. Do you happen to know if the broad tenets of the focused design is patented or are other companies working on similar focused resolution VR headsets?

It seems to be an high-end offshoot of foveated rendering, which other companies are already looking at.....
