The battery tether feels ever-present, and because it's so short it's much more annoying than the long tether of PC VR headsets or PlayStation VR2. Yes, the weight is ever present, but at least what’s pressing against your face doesn’t feel rough like Quest 2. This occlusion is present across the system, in every app.

We’ve got AR platforms being hosted by Amazon, by Facebook, by Snapchat, where you can develop your own AR lenses. The technology is amazing, but there’s a certain amount of cultural shift that you have to have in order to really commit to being immersed and present within a virtual experience.

And their response actually, I hadn't considered was: when you're in a group -- let's say you're four people in an office, and you're face to face -- you still want to see those people. Alan: Yeah, it falls apart.

Amazon sold me a moulded nylon grip for an AR-15 airsoft rifle… it was time to start work building my first development “Mule”. These optical windows were a proud design feature on the HTC Vive headsets, but are much more subtle on the Index equipment making them harder to identify. Why had they settled on this shape?

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.
