Oculus Working on Headset-Mounted Camera With Possible Gesture Controls

VRFocus - It has been revealed that Oculus VR, the company behind the Oculus Rift virtual reality (VR) headset, is working on a second camera for the headset on top of the one included in the second developer kit (DK2). The proposed addition would be fitted to the headset itself, facing outwards as opposed to the first camera that sits in front of users to track the position of the device and replicate physical head movements in-game.

The thing is getting bigger and bigger... literally!

I can sense things accidentally getting punched in my future.

Hope they build there own versions of the Hydra's or Move. even including some artificial recoil system like these tactical haptic grips you see in this video: https://www.youtube.com/wat...

I personally think gloves would be better.

elhebbo164373d ago

You are right but since a lot of first person games are build around holding something (an axe, a gun, a crowbar) I figure this will be more important, In the future they should tackle other types of motion attachments like gloves and I dunno something you strap around your waste.

aliengmr4373d ago

With the gloves, they should also have an "all-in-one" controller that can be made into a gun or a wheel or anything else. Something that can provide the feel and also be adaptable.

They just need this:

Won't happen though since Carmack is interested in glove/wrist free finger tracking.

That's fine. GT7 would overshadow it anyway at it has open wheel and regular cars.

Should have been spending their time updating Squadrons with better resolution, frame rate, haptics, etc as there isn't a game like that on PS VR 2 yet.

But it's EA. They don't think.

Babadook71096d ago

I agree. It would sell better on PSVR2 right now.

Knushwood Butt1096d ago (Edited 1096d ago )

A wasted opportunity, but I don't buy EA / Codemasters stuff anyway. Grid Legends just came out on Plus and I haven't touched it. Why would I when I have GT7 and PSVR2?

Abnor_Mal1096d ago

Not into F1 racing, but still a missed opportunity.

ApocalypseShadow1096d ago

That's where opportunity presents itself that they could offer something else that other developers haven't offered yet. Yeah. There's No Man's Sky. But a space game with a story would be great. Like the old days with Colony Wars.

Abnor_Mal1096d ago

Exactly, they could have possibly lured more players just from the inclusion of a vr mode.

I miss Colony wars and G-Police, Low-Fi I hope will scratch that itch when it releases. We also need a vr War/Starhawk game.

Knushwood Butt1096d ago

Just watched the trailer of Low-Fi. Most definitely on my radar.
