However they suffer from the inability to “move” around your environment.Įnter the big daddy – HTC Vive, along with Oculus this headset is more advanced, and the Vive comes with controllers to hold which can ‘appear’ in your virtual environment, and sensors which can see where you are moving within a confined space. Google wisely created the “cardboard” which works with almost any smartphone and is a very low cost approach.īoth these allow an immersive experience where you can look around a virtual environment and when paired with a games controller becomes interactive.
Samsung have rushed to the front of the smartphone VR race with their Gear VR headset which works with almost any recent Samsung Phone. The smartphone with a headset it sits in, the headset with screens built in, and the top end is a headset with screens in it and sensors or cameras pointing at it to create a wider “world”. There’s a few different approaches to Virtual Reality. I’ve tried them all, and let me tell you Sony Playstation VR is the best of the best. Virtual Reality is not new, it’s not even a recent thing, but in the last few years with advances in technology and a reduction in the price of various sensors and screens the whole thing has gotten very very real.
