UPDATE: ITS OVER

Old prototype

Updated Prototype!

FIRST HALF OF 2016 RELEASE More at E3

120Hz OLED display at 1920 x RGB x 1080

<18ms latency

5.7" screen gives about 100 degrees field of view

9 Tracking LEDs for robust 360 degree tracking

One-button quick on/off design

You can use your glasses

You can flip out the front to look down and find a controller quickly

4 new demos available.

Games can be at 60fps themselves, but rendered at 120fps for Morpheus using "reprojection" in software libraries

Develoeprs are encouraged to reach 120 fps

PS4 was designed to have a 120 fps output, which we haven't talked about publicly in the past(!)

We feel 120 FPS is ideal for VR

[Man]

Probably an hour of talk and then onto floor demos I guess.

Hopefully there is some info on price and/or release date.

 

[chadskin]

Hope this finally releases in 2015. The wait for VR is killing me

 

[USC-fan]

Thank you!

Really hope they let this work with other devices other than just ps4.

Hopefully there is some info on price and/or release date.

That's E3 material. Lets hope for a hardware & tech update and new game announcements.

In this day and age how the hell is there not an unofficial livestream.

I bet even people in the NSA can't watch this shit.

 

[Neuromancer]

Hold on to your butts!

It's a pay for conference :/ I'm surprised live blogging is okay.

 

[FleetFeet]

Disappointed that there's no stream... but a live blog is better than nothing. I do hope they film it and upload it to youtube later, just as they did last year.

 

[Mindlog]

Hello 6 year old self.
It's finally happening. We're almost there!

DON'T BUY THAT GODDAMN STUNTMASTER HEADSET. IT'S NOT WHAT YOU THINK!

 

[SharkJAW]

Give me final specs, please. I would also enjoy release date/price, but that seems more likely to occur at E3.

 

[OdysseusVA]

Thank you RoadtoVR for having a mobile friendly site

 

[2blackcats]

Anyone care to recommend one live blog over the other? Don't really know either site.

lol

I remember being a kid in a mall and seeing some really really early vr stuff being demoed (why the hell were they demoing that in a mall in the damn 80s?!) and thinking holy shit that looks cool. Well, this looks to be soooo much cooler.

Well I generally trust Ars on technical details but really not sure what Sony is going to show...

I had the Sony Glasstrons back in ~2003..

It was pretty cool at the time, and a lot of Pilotwings 64 and Timesplitters 2 were played on it. In retrospect the image quality was pretty bad though.

 

[GeoramA]

Finally. Been a long ass time since we heard anything new about Morpheus. A few game announcements would be nice.

Arsetechnica is a PC, RoadtoVR is a mac.

 

[jediyoshi]

You put on the headset and you are the Last Guardian.

I prefer VRFocus, I've been following them for awhile.

Wasn't that thing like $1000? I believe they had an upgraded version that was only 720p as well...

 

[rjinaz]

my cup virtually runneth over.

I believe I got it used on eBay for around $200. I still have it around here somewhere...

 

[valkillmore]

I'll be here with you all tonight. Gotta get some snax brb

 

[ICPEE]

edit: posted above.

 

[dmr87]

So boring without a stream.

 

[Ephemeris]

Had a chance to dabble at the last E3. Definitely looking forward to seeing what they have to offer.

 

[ScepticMatt]

bigger

 

[Neuromancer]

Apparently there are only around 25-50 people in the room.

 

[Blanquito]

Liveblog is live

 

[FleetFeet]

Really hoping we finally get a look at Media Molecule's new project.

 

[TTP]

About 25 people in the room according to roadtovr. Lowering expectations....

 

[ScepticMatt]

Is there a way to hide comments on the ars live blog?

 

[vpance]

$149 incoming.

It's GDC, not E3.

 

[Savantcore]

From PlayStation's Twitter.

 

[plainr_]

Hope we see a Move redesign.

 

[RoboPlato]

Hoping we get some more detailed specs and info on framerate targets.

No but comments on the RoadtoVR liveblog are automatically hidden.

 

[Man]

Comforting to see Sony acknowledging upcoming news on twitter.

 

[Blanquito]

Once the event starts they don't show very many user comments. This is just to have something to talk about until it starts.

 

[ScepticMatt]

Yes, thankfully.

I see, thanks.

We are live.
