He has always been a great innovator and I admire his work since the good old Oculus DK 2 times, when he published “Sightline: The Chair” Now he is continuing this innovation work by building a completely open metaverse called Neos , where thanks to object modeling and scripting, it is possible to create everything you want.

La Biennale di Venezia , the commitee behind the Venice Film Festival, has just organized its important workshop of the Biennale College inside the VRrOOm social XR platform for which I’m a developer. Oculus rejects Crisis VRigade again, causing backlash from the community. So, Start it is not a valid answer.

I have worked on VR workshops where people had fun choosing crazy avatars and then going partying together. But they are also easier to understand: you don’t need a dedicated team to explain to attendees how to install VRChat and that no, the VRChat website is not the actual virtual world.

Partly this was due to geographical limitations (Oculus never released the Rift or Go in the Middle East for some reason) and partly it was due to the relationship I built with the awesome Vive team based here in Dubai and their continued support of my work. My Vive Pro is still my “main” headset and the one I use for all the #CPDinVR events.

Carillon was really built for VR: the Oculus Rift and the Leap Motion Controller are key components in the work. However, to get optimal framerates for the Oculus Rift, this work really should be performed using faster video cards. Testing with the Oculus Rift and the Leap Motion Controller within Unreal has been pretty fun.

I had already an Oculus account, then I have been forced to create a Facebook account to use the Quest 2, and you told me that it was necessary because “so we can leverage Facebook’s powerful platform for your life in VR”… and now I should create a separate account for this???

In his video, it seems that the Pico Neo 3 is exactly what we would expect, that is a good clone of the Oculus Quest 2. There is also a companion app (another thing copied from Oculus), through which you can buy the games (of course connected with Alipay and WeChat pay). He’s most probably talking about the Oculus Quest 2 Pro.
