The open beta of the PC version of VRChat now natively supports hand tracking, via the SteamVR Skeletal Input system. The VRChat standalone app on the Quest Store has supported hand tracking since late 2022. But of course, the best way to experience VRChat is on PC. You see higher-quality versions of most avatars and worlds, and get access to PC-only avatars and worlds that go far beyond what's possible on mobile.

Augmented reality glasses, or “AR smart glasses” have become increasingly popular in recent years. Although Google’s Glass fiasco failed to pay off in the past, it seems like the world is finally ready to embrace AR specs. Still, finding cheap augmented reality glasses isn’t exactly easy. Although there are a handful of “smart glasses” options out there for $300 or less, like the Meta Ray-Ban glasses , these don’t actually include augmented reality features.

PlayStation VR2 is currently on sale for £350 at all official UK retailers That's a £180 discount from its regular price of £530, and by far the lowest price we've ever seen the headset sold at in any market. The Horizon Call Of The Mountain Bundle has the same discount, so is available for £390, saving you £20 over buying the game separately. It's unclear how long this sale will last for, as there was no official Sony announcement and none of the retailers list an end date.

To avoid awkward and sometimes disastrous learning content, instructional designers must use authentic translation in the right context to get optimal results. For example, even a simple phrase like “got milk” translates to “are you lactating” in Mexico. Can you imagine what a straight translation might do to your course? With over 317 million people in the US and over 6.7 billion potential customers in the world, personalizing training seems logical.

As sales of GPU-based AI accelerators remain as strong as ever, the immense demand for these cards has led to some server builders going off the beaten path in order to get the hardware they want at a lower price. While both NVIDIA and AMD offer official card configurations for servers, the correspondingly high price of these cards makes them a significant financial outlay that some customers either can't afford, or don't want to pay.

Quest 3 can pair to the Meta Ray-Ban glasses to privately download videos and photos anywhere. In 2014, Mark Zuckerberg spent $3 billion for Oculus VR and $19 billion for WhatsApp. A decade later, you can take Meta's glasses out into the world and capture photos and videos with them up to three minutes at a time. While they're charging in their case, you can pull out your VR headset to download those videos and share whichever ones you want with friends on WhatsApp.

Tweet As an industry analyst at a well known company (i.e. this is not about feeding edge as it is just a place to blog and hold the rights for my novels now) covering all things Metaverse, industrial, enterprise and consumer, I know there are few newer companies in the space that may not know what being an analyst means to them, so here is an updated and repurposed blog post I wrote a few years ago else where about what an industry analyst does and why you might want to talk to us.

Following his VR debut with Death Game Hotel, SWERY wants to create a "multiplayer experience that no one has ever seen before." It's been two weeks since Death Game Hotel arrived on Quest, a gambling puzzle horror game that we believed "excels in multiplayer" in our recent review. While it's the debut VR game from White Owls Inc., this isn't the first time Hidetaka "SWERY" Suehiro has explored virtual reality, following some VR experiments back in 2017 and a canceled food-themed PSVR game.
