Steam frame is coming up thats about the only interesting thing thats going to cost $1000-$1400 if not more so will be an overinflated $500 hardware. Still same shitty issues with the same shitty graphics and resolution. The new meta quest 3 looks better and I think has better tracking but, it’s tied down to shitbergs platform. Bigscreen got an update but, still not that much of an improvement. It’s almost like a limited technology that hasn’t had much improvements.
I was wondering if there’s been in any movement in software/UI/game development… I’d consider a headset to watch 3D movies at a high enough resolution, but for games, the immersion is enough of a draw that I don’t need the res, though it would certainly be appreciated.
Are you pretty much able to stream a game wirelessly via Wifi now?
You have been able to stream over wifi for ages now, just not with the shitty AP your ISP gave you, which is not a problem you can magic away with software. The steam frame will come with a special wifi dongle that will direct connect to the headset, bypassing the need for a not-shit AP for streaming.
The long and short of it is that wireless VR requires low latencies that you can’t achieve without consideration to the radios in use, because high bandwidth low-latency is tricky.

If you can drop a thousand on a novelty, you can drop $90 on a decent router and save some money (no longer renting you ISP’s)
I figure nerds who buy frames are probably not renting their routers from the cable company, tho?
