NEW OCULUS VR Headset is entering Production this July!

Featured Replies

From a recent report from an insider in Facebook we now know that the rumored new Oculus Virtual Reality Headset is entering the production stage very soon, in this July! This might be the rumored and leaked Oculus Del Mar, with its Oculus Jedi Controllers, a new version of the Oculus Quest (oculus Quest S, Oculus Quest 2) Smaller, lighter and Faster.

the Rift S/Quest combo is brilliant,

very much looking forward to what comes next,

trying hand tracking for the first time is a real buzz - one of my favourite VR moments so far,

& Oculus software is slick - works well.

Looking forward to more details........

I am very reluctant to trust a Oculus Quest successor. After all, we here are talking about flight simming, not gaming! Consider: with Rift S, we have to have the most powerful and VRAM-heavy graphics cards on the market (e. g. GTX 1080ti or 2080ti)!

Plus an overclocked CPU with >4 GHz.

Does anybody think that this can be achieved (today) by a smartphone-like device in the headset?! I don‘t until otherwise proven wrong. 

Of course, it would be wonderful not to be hampered by cables. But with today‘s hardware, I tend to look for a WLAN connection between the PC and the headset for transmission of graphics values to the headset. Even a kind of co-operation between the graphics card in the PC and a processor in the headset would be helpful both for performance and ease of use. I could imagine a specialized (graphics) processor with lots of VRAM, which converts the vector data coming from the PC to pixels... I do not see that in the new headsets. Please! Prove me wrong!😁
