If it will be a 3DOF (3 degrees of freedom) device as mentioned two posts above, or something more "medical" inside the headphones.
In the end, one of the things left to simulate and herewith complete immersion, is the manipulation of the equilibrium organ. This in turn would make even walkarounds possible.įor larger planes or ramps this devices could be useful: That describes actually an IRS-system, which should be capable of head position tracking, although it is not mentioned as this.īuilt as an IRS, this head tracker should actually be able to track the head's/body's position inside a room of significant size. thrust levers or steering columns.)īut as the Oculus Rift Wikipedia article describes in the chapter "hardware", the consumer version ("V2.0") might have a 3-axis gyro, built of accelerometers and magnetometers working at 1000Hz. (This is fun and makes much sense, as you can see and reach or touch displays and buttons normally obscured by e.g. This makes it possible to sit on your (cockpit-) seat and move your head around like in the real cockpit. TrackIR v5 (which I am using with Nvidia 3D Vision 2) already tracks the head position. This would be a bit disappointing, because e.g. While watching this video I recognized that, corresponding to the presenter (video from 0:59 to 1:16 min), the developer hardware version of the Oculus Rift only seems to support "orientation head tracking (=view direction)" and not "position head tracking (=view position)". Especially the implementation of data gloves would be a reasonable feature: It would be a good idea for LM not only to support the visual aspects of VR, but also to care about the tactile matters herein. It will be available for a large group of buyers due to an affordable price, and by that sort of worthwhile for developers to support. Oculus Rift is for sure a technical device that should be taken serious by LM.
