However, following the release of consumer equipment like the HTC Vive , Oculus Rift , Sony PSVR and the various mobile VR headsets , we now have a different situation with a much larger group of people (the general population) using virtual reality on a regular basis, for longer periods of time.
It differs from VR, which is more of an independent, one-on-one self study type of experience. Several of the world’s biggest tech giants, including Meta Platforms, Sony, Agora, HTC VIVE, Unity Technologies, Qualcomm, MagicLeap, Lenovo, and many others joined the event.
Researchers are studying hacking in VR. Top VR headset makers have been Sony, Facebook, HTC, Pico, and 3Glasses. Researchers are studying if VR can hurt your brain. SIGGRAPH showcase experiences have been unveiled and there are many high-quality titles. Of course, I will sustain this effort as I can! News worth a mention.

Furthermore, when the remastered version of Resident Evil 4 has been announced, Sony stated that some VR-related content will be released for it (but it is not clear what). Galea has been studied to become the gold standard for BCIs in VR, but this comes together with the gold price of $22,500.
In front of you will be two 8K Sony chips, I hear. If you haven’t seen a Microsoft Hololens or a MagicLeap you probably have no clue about how amazing this will be. In the back of every Apple store is a million-dollar 8K TV that is about 30 feet across. It’s stunning, even on the shitty optics the Hololens has.

News worth a mention.
Most people know Xu due to his dispute with American virtual reality company MagicLeap. In June 2019, MagicLeap accused Xu of stealing AR glasses technology when he was an engineer working at the firm. She studied engineering at Carnegie Mellon University with a focus on machine learning and computer vision.
MagicLeap raises other $350M. I honestly don’t even know how to report this piece of news: MagicLeap has raised other money, to be exact $350M, and it seems that a healthcare company is involved. It seems a product studied for some military and government agencies… very little but profitable niches.
Innovation happens in sprints In life as in technology (Image by LizAndMollie) While I was thinking about what to write in this article, I remembered something I studied at University about innovation. My theory is that “Current VR” is not becoming mainstream. It is not a continuous line, but there are many jumps.
Uniting the Industry Multiple companies, from Meta Platforms, Qualcomm, NVIDIA, Microsoft, HTC VIVE, ByteDance, Sony and even massive telecoms like Nokia and T-Mobile are chipping in to increase adoption rates for spatial technologies. Startups, experts, and even researchers are equally contributing to its development.
