Before my demo at Google I/O, Google’s head of VR Clay Bavor outlined a series of caveats and expectations for what I was about to experience. The demo, according to Google, would reset after each journalist so the hardware would see the room fresh each time after each person donned the headset. WorldSense.
Microsoft’s play for command of next generation personal computing can be seen today with the announcement of a series of Windows-powered VR headsets starting at $300. The headsets planned from HP, Dell, Lenovo, Asus, and Acer will use what’s known as “inside-out” position tracking.
The Air headset, introduced at CES , offers 3 degrees of headtracking, and echo cancellation technology, while the Light glasses provide 6DoF head, hand, image, and plane tracking. Sensors are included to track positioning and movement, and an 8MP camera allows for content streaming in real-time.

GoogleGoogle was one of the first companies to introduce the world to smart glasses technology with the “Glass” headset. MicrosoftMicrosoft’s smart glasses are designed with a focus on the mixed reality landscape. Goertek is even working with Sony on the development of new PlayStation headsets.
They aim to compete with existing solutions from other major tech brands and impending technologies rumored to be arriving from companies like Apple and Microsoft. All you need to do is log into a Google account, and download apps for top streaming services, such as Netflix. Notably, the screens don’t point directly at your eyes.
The system featured a head-mounted display with headtracking that could be used to explore virtual environments or real remote images from a camera — foreshadowing future breakthroughs in teleoperation. Google revealed Glass the same year the first Oculus prototype hit the scene. They were slick, they were robust.
The headset came out last year , starts at $800, and is hands-down the best VR headset I’ve used to so far, and that includes various incarnations of the Oculus Rift, the Microsoft Hololens, the original HTC Vive, Oculus Go, and dozens of different smartphone-based headsets.

All the big names in tech are working on their own devices, including Apple, Sony, Samsung, and Google. Even Microsoft decided to join the club. We do not want to simply exchange a regular camera for a VR camera and use head-tracking as a gimmick. 2015 is going to be an exciting year!
I think there’s an inherent risk of collecting eye tracking data, and positional headtracking data, and more data about individuals. So if you look at the investments done by Google, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Facebook and a bunch of other, Lenovo, Valve[?].

And the next generation of headsets that will come out in the next 24 months will all have eye tracking and headtracking. One of their announcements the other day was this amazing ability to create 3D objects and 3D products, and then have the back end to source and serve them up for programmatic ads on Facebook, on Google.

For example, headtracking can come from optical trackers or inertial ones. Google Glass has not been as successful as hoped. Microsoft Hololens kits are shipping to developers, but are not priced for consumers yet. With every new device, we come closer towards achieving universal device support.
It was 2015, right after Google Glass, quote/unquote failed. So I know AGCO is using Google Glass all over. Google has some easy tools. Microsoft has actually– it’s interesting, because the Hololens was in their devices division and they actually moved it last year over to cloud. Alan: Really? Like the cloud.
