Virtual Reality & the Oculus Rift

Its here… the new standard for Virtual Reality. The #OculusRift is finally ready for use and deliveries have been announced for Q1 2016. Virtual Reality has looked for traction for many years. The Rift will change everything we have known till date about #VR. As a simulator hobbyist who has spent years trying triple monitors, triple channel projection, FOV calculations I can clearly see – no pun intended – the value of the Rift. In the mad pursuit of achieving high resolution immersive 210 degree wrap-around views I had at one point 9 monitors dedicated to such wrap around view generation – and yet, the views would still feel like you were watching a monitor.

The Rift changes all that. Watch one of the videos I found on Youtube, you will see what I am talking about.
