According to Stereo Labs, “Through high definition stereo cameras, the headset blends the virtual and real worlds together in an immersive and photorealistic way. Linq’s system for hand tracking is also unique. Today, Stereo Labs is announcing a new developer kit for a product called “Linq.”

SEE ALSO Hands-on: HTC's New Vive Tracker Makes VR More Immersive With Specialized Accessories. Thanks to the Tracker, it’s become easy to precisely track third-party accessories in the same coordinate plane, with the same accuracy, and with the same latency as the VR headset itself, eliminating a host of issues in one fell swoop.

This is definitely a good idea. It’s interesting to underline how Somnium is building a whole VR ecosystem around it : It already invested in Lynx and VRgineers, two companies making VR headsets; in Hypervision, which makes wide-FOV lenses; and now in Sansar, who is another social VR platform.

As well as using it to cook, finding that placing virtual timers above food was useful and unique to spatial computing, she even briefly wore it while skiing to verify just how low the latency is - just 12 milliseconds from the camera exposure to hitting your eyes. And I definitely can’t afford one at $3,500.

As they say, content is king, and in virtual reality this is definitely an area seeing growing pains. VR faces many challenges when approaching content creation: latency, SIM sickness, limitations in tools available for building, high expense, lack of vernacular/rules, and very little monetary return on investment.

Gu: It’s funny two years ago we have to explain to people “tracking is a solved problem”, and nowadays thanks to Valve we no longer need to do that anymore. It is very easy to integrate the lighthouse tracking system into Dexmo, and we will definitely look into that. People get it. Do they use Bluetooth, WiFi?

Amazon promises “single-digit latency” XR streaming. Amazon has announced some weeks ago “Wavelength”, a new offering of its AWS services, that should provide “single-digit latency” over 5G networks. To have such a low latency, the company needs very fast 5G networks and edge servers very close to the client.

It also has a lens design that is unique in its field , and hands tracking as its primary interaction means.

My hands responded with full 6DOF movement as I moved them around, but it was quickly noticeable that the positional latency is not at the same bar as leading controller tracking systems like those used with the Vive or Rift, or even Windows VR or PSVR.

It’s one of the most powerful devices I’ve ever used, with exceptional multi-tasking capabilities, hand and eye-tracking, and phenomenal visual fidelity. The Meta Quest 3, on the other hand, isn’t quite as mind-blowing, but it’s definitely the more affordable option for XR beginners.

He's what he said: "That’s a model we’ve definitely explored. 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. Apple Vision Pro on the other hand has occlusion in two distinct forms.

If this headset won’t be good, probably it will lose definitely the trust of the XR community. Quest 2 hands tracking gets 60Hz update. On Quest 2 it is now possible to use high-frequency (60Hz) hands tracking, which guarantees better stability and less latency in your hands-controlled applications.

Theoretically they could work also via Bluetooth, but Bluetooth communication would add extra latency to the haptics system. Every new user employing the Dexmo may choose a prefixed hand model that is similar to his/her hand or to calibrate for one time. The nominal battery duration for the gloves is 6 hours.
