Still, many of the existing games on other VR platforms need to be tailored to work with the headset’s eye and hand-tracking only approach to input, which leads me to my next point… Motion Controllers What : Some games simply don’t work without motion controllers—at least not in the way they were initially designed to.

I have also to say that there is still a long road to go before going there: the magazines that have tried the solution of HTC found it very interesting, but at the same time highlighted how the latency was still high and sometimes if you moved too fast, you lose the tracking. The look it provides is also cool.

This doesn't make a lot of sense because using your hands is more natural, so Manus developed a set of gloves that solves that problem entirely. Video: Don't Miss: What's the Difference Between HoloLens, Meta, & Magic Leap? Instead of using controllers, you can just move.

Some use cases that are presented, like realtime streaming of VR games, are still far away : streaming of desktop games has not proven yet to be a successful business, so streaming of VR games, that is even more difficult because of the low latency requirement, is something not so close in the future. All the others are getting breadcrumbs.

The headset apparently has 14 cameras in total when including those used for passthrough, positional tracking, eye tracking, face tracking, hand tracking, and body tracking – causing “headaches” for hardware and algorithm engineers.

Despite this, Latta praised the headset’s features like its field of view (FoV), controller-less hand tracking, eye and gaze tracking, and 3D video recording capabilities. It is not sure what they are building in their garage,” he said. This could lead to new forms of interacting with sports events.

Reducing Latency is Becoming Complex Trends Presence in VR requires low latency, and reducing latency is not easy. Low latency is also not the result of one single technique. Predictive tracking lowers perceived latency by estimating future orientation. Magic Leap is not commercial yet.

GB: Magic Leap is a big presence in the AR discussion. Outside of the sort of people in this room and in the games press, I don’t think most people know what Magic Leap is. When you talk about investment, certainly Magic Leap has garnered the most, but ODG just closed a big round. VR is inherently isolating.

We can track wands… this [shows a device in front of the camera] is our six degrees of freedom wand that comes with it.

HoloLens 2, Magic Leap 2, iPhone Pro, and iPad Pro automatically scan your room and create a 3D mesh, which apps leverage for collision and occlusion between virtual and real objects. The most impressive core tech of Quest Pro though is the inside-out tracking – without a doubt the best I’ve ever used. Face Tracking.

It is standalone (as HoloLens and Magic Leap ) and has cameras through which it sees the environment. Anyway, all the analysis for tracking happens on the device and not on the cloud (obviously, latency would be enormous otherwise!). It turns on when the tracking cameras get activated (Image by Road To VR).
