Pre-orders for the FOVE 0 head-mounted display begin November 2nd. Originally labeled just FOVE , the FOVE 0 (yeah now we’re talking) has been making waves in the virtual reality community due in large part to its unique built-in eye-tracking technology. Well wonder no more as FOVE Inc.
When the UK-based VR studio, Rewind, asked me if I wanted to come and see a demo of its eye-tracking tech demo for the upcoming FOVE 0 headset, I was intrigued. It went down “fantastically well”, according to Kibblewhite, and even a certain Oculus Rift inventor saw it and liked it.
Fove is selling a development kit of their VR headset with inbuilt eye-tracking. Oculus recently showed off a new prototype seen for the first time with eye-tracking. This information is then sent to the display to adjust accordingly, setting the focal depth to match the virtual distance from the user’s eye to the object.
He works at FOVE which is making a VR headset with eye-tracking, but wanted to speak to me on his own behalf about some of the deeper philosophical questions and conceptual frameworks around the types of intimate data that will become available to VR headsets. What type of transparency and controls should users expect from companies?
It may only be two years old, but Oculus’ Connect developer conference has already established some cherished traditions. Abrash’s 2021 predictions for VR, presented at Oculus Connect 3 in 2016. Companies are starting to dabble with foveated rendering but we only have eye-tracking in one VR headset, FOVE. Absolutely.
According to at least one objective analysis , the Samsung and Oculus-developed device is projected to sell upward of 2 million units by the end of this year. A series of LED lights placed on the headset would be picked up by an external camera and that information would be translated into positional data inside the headset itself.
On March 25th, 2014, many people were left scratching their heads: why did Facebook spend 2 billion dollars to acquire a Kickstarter funded virtual reality company called Oculus. Oculus has sold an estimated 250k Rifts. Fove has created an eye-tracking headset, which other headset manufacturers may seek to include in future iterations.
