If VR is dead, why are the biggest players still making new headsets? Sony's latest XR headset is due to hit stores before the end of 2024—and it promises to be a real workhorse for 3D designers. Packed with advanced tech, the latest in Qualcomm's Snapdragon platform, and some unique controllers purpose-built for design and object manipulation, things are looking good for professionals in XR. Take a look at what we know right here: https://lnkd.in/gsXMBwx8 #SideQuest #VR #Sony

One door closes, another one opens...? It seems like the Quest Pro 2 may finally be canceled after budget cuts at Meta and a renewed focus for Reality Labs. However, every cloud has a silver lining. It seems that new focus may actually be bifocal (horrid pun alert) and come in the form of new XR glasses that could provide something of a bridge between Meta's existing collab with Ray-Ban and the Quest headsets currently on the market. And you can read more about it right here: https://lnkd.in/gbTp6WDM #SideQuest #VR #Meta

Apple's Vision Pro headset now has controllers! Will it be the next great PCVR headset...? Surreal Interactive has officially achieved Kickstarter backing on their Surreal Touch controllers—designed from the ground up to work with Apple's Vision Pro to unlock new experiences on the headset. While Apple's gesture-based interface is amazing, its lack of controllers means we've been unable to play more demanding games like FPSs and Action/Adventure games. From December, that's about to change! And, let's not forget that the controllers will be perfect outside of gaming, too—helping boost the productivity apps of the Vision Pro even further for those who prefer controllers to hand tracking. Read more about the new controllers, their specs, and more, right here: https://lnkd.in/dHsUmx23 #VR #Apple #PCVR #SideQuest
