I feel like some products, such as Google Cardboard, and some of the lower-end pieces of hardware, have actually done more harm than good to the reputation of virtual reality. People get in it, and they see, "this as a medium-to-low-quality image or video that I'm sitting in," and there's not much interaction if it's a Google Cardboard.

Amazon Sumerian. One of their announcements the other day was this amazing ability to create 3D objects and 3D products, and then have the back end to source and serve them up for programmatic ads on Facebook, on Google. So, the ability to create scents, in addition to haptics and the visuals, (obviously), and then the audio.

And so we have something meaningful come from HTC Vive with the Focus, or Focus Plus. As I go to these different developer conferences, I go to Facebook F8, or Microsoft Build, or Google IO. And then there’s Amazon, they have Sumerian. These are like the major tech companies. You have Apple, with ARKit. And they do that.

The haptic feedback has been improved, and the controllers feel more real. I have dedicated a complete article to the Oculus For Business program, but if you want a TL;DR I can tell you that while the device is better than all the other devices out there in the market, I would prefer a headset from Pico or HTC for B2B. That’s it!

The haptic feedback of these controllers has been improved , and they can provide much stronger vibrations than the one of the original Quest. This kind of seamless interface is great and it is exactly the same one that HTC already offers with the Vive Focus Plus and Viveport Streaming and that I’ve tried and appreciated.
