Everyone Gets In

It looks like Virtual Reality has finally reached the price and quality level that is gaining popularity. At the last Microsoft conference, it was obvious that Microsoft is all about integration, Linux, virtual servers, services and virtual reality. This is how this headset fits. Fresnel lenses tend to give a sharp image in the center of the eye, but become fuzzy or fuzzy when you look to the side. So expect your head to be spinning to keep the image sharp. It has the highest resolution screen for the price and Valve's best speakers placed close to your ears. They don't touch your ears, but the sound moves relative to your head movement, creating an immersive soundscape. There is a newer, more expensive model, and the next generation of headsets will track the position of the eyes and focus with absolute accuracy as much as possible. Easily view objects or keys on the on-screen virtual keyboard. The connecting cable is the weak link. Use care and caution when plugging in the headset and securing with the clip. Keep the adapter on the side of the computer, as users have trouble using it directly. I think the new cable and power switch adapter will solve many cable compatibility issues. I use large loose zip ties to route the cable to the back of the headset. I can tell a lot of people are transitioning to VR right now as the rate of VR software and driver updates for betas on Steam and Microsoft is almost daily. The good news is that each version gets better. We'll see another push for VR when Windows 11 is released to the public. necessary. I suggest turning on motion smoothing, which allows the glasses to shift the image according to movement between computer updates. This makes for a nice, smooth ride when you look around.

Pros
