In September 2014, Palmieri gathered a small team of VR enthusiasts within the Company and got to work. Based on this research, prototypes focused on three main things: VR comfort, intuitiveness, and precision of controls with no latency. Their goal? To build the most intuitive and comfortable VR gaming experience.

The announcement of Oculus Link just a few months after Quest and Rift S hit store shelves also tells us something about Oculus’ approach to product development which seems to be changing as the company has steadily lost its core founders after being acquired by Facebook in 2014.

Ever since Oct 2013 when we initiated Project Dexmo, we haven’t stop improving it: In June 2014 we came up with the design of “switching force feedback”, proved the concept and filed a US patent for it. In Oct 2014 we launched and then canceled the KS project. Gu: What we demonstrated on KS back in 2014 was only a concept.

If the idea of cardboard-based peripherals sounds familiar to you at all, that’s probably because of Google Cardboard popularizing the concept since 2014. There’s also a Robot Kit, which creates a wearable robot suit reminiscent of the previously-canceled Project Giant Robot for Wii U.

Back in 2014, we didn’t realize exactly how accurate SteamVR tracking was—the whole notion of roomscale VR was almost incomprehensible. Up until that point, there was still some motion latency in VR, so you never felt completely attached to the actions in your hands.

On March 25th, 2014, many people were left scratching their heads: why did Facebook spend 2 billion dollars to acquire a Kickstarter funded virtual reality company called Oculus. Since then, we have seen a movement. Virtual reality has taken the world by storm. Hundreds of companies from around the world have joined the rat race.

After a very successful Kickstarter campaign in 2014, the project entered in a confused phase after the funding and then ended up with the device being just a B2B product (exactly as all the other treadmills, like for instance the Virtuix Omni). The second component I think of is the Tracking System and the Software Interface.

To prove his claims, he put on the tale the sales numbers of the Oculus devkits: “The original DK1, released in 2013 sold 70,000 units while the follow-up DK2 from 2014 sold 150,000”, he said. More info (Latency in haptic gloves) More info (Tasbi). These numbers are of course far away from mainstream adoption.

Started by Oculus in 2014, Connect was where the earliest of early adopters could meet and learn how to make their games and apps happen for the first consumer VR headsets. Pandemic notwithstanding, they all had one important thing in common: none of the conferences used the company’s core XR technology to virtually connect people.

After it was introduced in 2014, Chinese manufacturers flooded the market with these ‘Plastic Cardboards’, which on the surface seem to fill a use: headsets made of cardboard get greasy and dinged-up fairly quickly, so having a more robust plastic version helps keep them in good shape longer.

Software support in racing simulations was a headache from mid-2014 to early 2016, when the Rift DK2 was effectively the sole hardware choice. Corsa Assets (2014), for example, was released in Early Access in 2013 and was fully functional on the Rift DK1 by May 2016, but only acquired Vive support in March 2017.

Or how does resolution or latency affect simulator sickness? That was hard coding work and getting packets to arrive at the same time and making sure the latency wasn’t too horrible to cause synchrony to break down. The latency, I think, was about a quarter second. I didn’t want to take that step.

As latency over a few milliseconds can disrupt the immersive nature of good VR and create nausea, the dependability of consumer-level wi-fi is brought into question. The company’s CEO, Evan Spiegel, was photographed earlier this year sporting what appeared to be a smartglasses prototype with embedded cameras.

In the near field, Quest even uses positional tracking so that your head can translate through this reprojected view before the next camera frame is even available to minimize perceived latency. The streaming quality is excellent and the latency feels lower than any wireless remote desktop I’ve ever tried.

Aimfire, a seven-person firm in New Jersey, was founded in 2014 and received seed funding last September from two angel investors in the mobile industry. The system doesn’t use Bluetooth or WiFi for that task, because variable latency could lag one frame of video or the other. Why can’t they form a camera array to capture VR content?”.
