VR/XR

Looks like the Beyond 2 has handled a lot of the criticisms of their first headset.

Also, full camera access is finally available to developers for the Quest. Hopefully we start seeing other headsets following suit. It looks like some very interesting applications be made with this.

It was their first time experiencing VR and one of them said they could play QubeFall for hours! It's such a bummer that that game never made it out of its prototype stage.

A great video content creator I've been following for a while. He has recently shifted to fewer videos while focusing on the quality of his videos.

He touches on a lot of recent VR News here, VR starting to get used in the judicial system and prisons, how Meta is treating VR now, Valve Deckard, and Palmer Lucky's return.

Participants view scenes of daily life as well as travel adventures – then process the emotions they trigger through art

Huge new UI for SteamVR and stuff like Steam Chat and Voice now integrated. Also, Linux is on a new runtime for "improved compatibility" - I'm gonna try it out sometime soon

New stream from SadlyItsBradley after Linux 6.6 sees a Valve "Galileo"

witnessed this update terrify sadlyitsbradley live on stream lol

Pretty good write-up I think of how the industry is moving into more AR-focused stuff and that it's probably gonna be far slower than the big leaps that the Vive and Quest headsets did

Terrifying news for PC players (/s) lmao. It uses Quest assets, understandably

this happened a little while ago but now this community exists so here it is lol. love the idea of this headset though, i really want good hand tracking (and a standalone headset that respects my privacy lol)

meta alternatives lets go
