    i just hope that in the future vr headsets and the like will be cheaper, imagine playing vrchat with the body suit of ready player one or even entering the world like in SAO. It is so interesting to see just how far and how little vr is going in the past 7 years. i mean you would think it would go a bit faster but it's still a thing to be grateful for lol.

      ell it makes plenty sense. Neural implants are only reatching a phase Were were testing on people. And Reading brainwaves as is Is kind of a limited tool. atleast if your thinking in terms Of sao style vr. I dont see any non intrusive methods Of Sao style vr ever being a thing not without some brain surgery.
      Vr is still a niche despite its success... But even sitll Im suprised it hasnt blown up more. Connecting all the Technologies currently availible for theater eske explerience for vr gaming.
      I mean... Its understandable why its not in general use yet.... Consumer grade 360 tradmills are still in progress. there are cheap at home solutions... but nothing particularly... good that your average consumer can just purchase and buy at non bank breaking costs that arnt.... Weird.. like shuffling in place on a small slippery surface.
      Expsnive ahh hundred dollar gloves. Expensive haptic vests.
      ITs... Like racing sims..... A lot of expensive components investment For a slelect amount of games hyperfocused to make that experience better....
      Its a hobbyist level right now... Your average person can probably get a headset like the quyest 3 clear some space and play like that... maybe a battery pack and rubber hand grips but beyond that Its a lot of investment. FOr all these other features Honrestly I could only see it working for pcvr withch requires you to already have a decent gaming computer witch gate keeps your average joe. from the get go. And keeps spiraling from there. It dont make sense to develop and get all these niche things developed by different people to work together yet.

    Great video, Tahvo! As soon as this video popped up I had to click on it immediately! I have to agree, like yourself, I liiIIiive for that face tracking in VRchat. It fulfills my geeky dream of becoming a cartoon character. And seeing your eyes and mouth move, like in the Quest 2, is so important to making that little dream a little closer. Thanks again for making this video :)

  • @kmemz
    @kmemz 19 днів тому +13

    The adapter is just a VirtualLink... splitter? combiner? you can plug PSVR2 into one of the few GPUs that has the USB-C on it and it will register. I believe there is a similar VirtualLink adapter for some of the Varjo headsets that already exists, but it's wildly expensive.
    So whatever the PSVR2 can send, should be visible on the other end whether directly connected or via the adapter. I think eye tracking may be viable unless they lock it out at a firmware level.

  • @digitalf0x
    @digitalf0x 19 днів тому +5

    I knew about the eye tracking, but it has haptics too? Now I really hope the community's effort succeeds, or at least pushes other, new headsets to include this feature.
    I *miiight* attempt DIY eye tracking in the future, but even as an electronics tinkerer, the risk you mention (and the fact I'm using a 7 year old headset) leaves me hesitant.

    Sony released a firmware update that unlocked the PSVR2 shortly after the original announcement that PCVR support was on the way. People speculated that this was done to facilitate an upcoming adapter. However, that doesn't make sense. Since Sony is providing a custom adapter for the purpose, that adapter could have maintained the proprietary protections just like the PS5 does. No, I think Sony unlocked the firmware in order to make features like eye tracking available to opensource since it wasn't going to be possible for them to support officially given the state of PCVR.
    This also explains why Sony released this firmware update way back then rather than waiting until the adapter was about to be released. I'll bet you eyetrackvr will already support PSVR2 before the adapter even ships.

    I hope in the future VR becomes alot more acessible and immersive like the Eye Tracking. Why more acessible you must think? Well, country's outside of Europe and country's who use USD in general, yeah a VR for $300 bucks is not expensive in USD or EUR but for country's who they main money is not USD or EUR? That's another history, luckly Quest 2 on these county's are becoming way cheaper (for example where I live it was before $4.000 now it's $1.800) Giving a chance to the whole world experience it! But player one style? It's already gonna take alot of time, worldwild? Alot more.

    Man. I'd really love if Vive or Valve came out with some competitively priced VR options.
    It's frustrating as all hell that the headsets owned by the worst companies are currently the best options for reasonable prices.
    I'd rather give my money to Playstation than to Facebook or TikTok. But it's not exactly a good option.
    It's Insanely frustrating that they're locking off features of the headset from PC. Hopefully the output data is still accesible. But if they're locking it as a means to try and coerce people into getting a playstation to get the full functionality of the thing, I doubt they'll willingly let that data through.
