Google VR headset connected to a mobile computing devicehttp://uploadvr.com/google-hand-patent/ Why not use the smartphone as the VR display like the Gear VR ? Is it because they want to use higher resolution micro displays ? The Google VR article links to a LG VR headset that uses a smartphone & micro displays -1.88" http://uploadvr.com/lg-hmd/ No performance details were given on stage by Lee, however, details from the show floor reveal the headsets exact specs: Display: 1.88″ 960×720 per eye, LCD Optic: FOV 80° (Virtual Image 130″ @2m) Sensors: 6-Axis (Gyro and Accelerometer) Proximity Sensor Input: 2 keys (back, select) Others: USB Type-C, Controller IC, Light Blocker, 3.5Φ Ear-Jack Although this author states LG 360 VR Is One of the Shittiest Virtual Reality Headsets I've Ever Tried http://gizmodo.com/lg-360-vr-is-one-of-the-shittiest-virtual-reality-heads-1760569996 The Google patent application publication is # 20160267712 This links but I could not get the full pdf & had to go to USPTO http://www.freshpatents.com/-dt20160915ptan20160267712.php The Google patent app mentions LCD & OLED as display source . The Google patent app also mentions IR head tracking . The new Steam Lighthouse sensors are very small - about the size of the D on a dime . http://www.roadtovr.com/lighthouse-chip-triad-ts3633-steamvr-htc-vive-2-cost-reduction-improved-vr-tracking/?platform=hootsuite Seems this size would be ideal for the new EMAN HMD or the Google VR unit . Is Google VR headset using microdiplays , connected to a Daydream capable phone , using new Lighthouse IR sensors ? Is EMAN in the new Google VR ? Is EMAN using the new Lighthouse VR sensors in their own IHMD ? |
