HP Reverb (Copper) VR Headset

Exclusive: HP's Next-gen VR Headset Aims to Raise the Bar on Clarity & Comfort

Another headset to watch.

Interesting that they are sticking to 110FOV.... But with that resolution (2,160 × 2,160 (per eye) the image should mega sharp.

Oh and obviously it looks just like a Rift...

Lol if imitation is the sincerest form of flattery then oculus should be very flattered data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7

Specs seem good (would have liked a 140fov mind you) but until winMR can increase its visible tracking area for controllers it is not for me.

Well I can't see this selling well AT ALL.

Firstly, being made out of Copper, it's going to cost a bloody fortune. And secondly it's going to weigh a bloody tonne. data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7

Will look badass though lol data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7

Women can stick their hair thru the hole in the back of the strap for the ultimate in comfort.

Some thoughts from Upload VR.

Neat that the controllers connect to the headset by Bluetooth rather than the PC.

114° fov apparently. A little bigger than Rift / Vive. I think fov is a bigger challenge than we are assuming it to be.

Though it's less pixels than Pimax 5k, as they are spread over a lesser fov there is probably a higher pixel density, so maybe less SDE.

Interesting that they ditched the PS style hat head mount and went for something closer to the Vive's DAS.

It's reassuring to see hardware vendors sticking with Windows MR. Was wondering whether many of them had been successful enough to drive a gen 2.

In terms of commanding my attention, the Reverb is currently in the lead!

This thing is wonderful!

I WOULD be looking at the Reverb as my next headset but there are three things that are ruling it out:

1) I don't agree with giving Bill Gates money lol

2) The tracking isn't as good as the Rift S

3) Without eye tracking and dynamic foveated rendering you'll need a 2080/Ti to run anything decent on it.
