Microsoft has just announced several new virtual reality headsets coming to Windows 10.
The next big update to the system, called the Creators Update, arrives in early 2017. With it comes support for new virtual reality headsets from companies like HP, Dell, Lenovo, Asus, and Acer.
According to Microsoft, these headsets feature “inside-out tracking,” a type of sensor that tracks a user’s movement through the headset itself (without the requirement of external tracking sensors that the Oculus Rift, HTC Vive, and PlayStation VR all currently require). This means that players won’t have to clear out an entire room in order to make room for a camera.
What isn’t clear about these headsets is their use in gameplay. Despite being so closely involved with Microsoft, there’s no word yet on whether they’ll work with the Xbox One or any future consoles like the Xbox Scorpio. Microsoft’s HoloLens is expected to launch with its own games, but that $3,000 headset is on an entirely different scale than these roughly $299 devices.
There isn’t an exact date for when these headsets will release, but they will likely appear alongside the Creators Update in 2017.
E ovo je vec bolje, mada je cak i 300$ previse i odbice ljude. Dobro je i sto se MS konacno ukljucio u VR trend. Inside out tracking zvuci mnogo logicnije mada je pitanje kako ce resiti motion kontrole.
