Oculus Rift

Virtual Reality Headset by Oculus VR gives a new dimension to gaming experience. Oculus Rift is future of gaming. Now you don’t just play the game…now you are the game. Imagine jumping into your television to take control of an entire world around you. Picture yourself coated and truly surrounded by the dynamic and heart-pounding effects of a first-person shooter or the mesmerizing and jaw-dropping scenery of a lively open world complemented by a striking symphony.

This is the vision behind Oculus Rift, a virtual reality (VR) head-mounted display that strives to bring you into the video game you are currently playing. It may sound complicated, right? How can a pair of fancy goggles bring me anywhere?
 
As it turns out, Oculus Rift is plenty more than just fancy; rather a high-level and high-technology system with precise head tracking equipment and a large 3D screen that presents images for both eyes. The field of view is altered respectively as you turn your head or make movements with your body. In this way, you are completely enclosed within the virtual world, never effectively seen before.

Specifications DK2
Resolution 960 x 1080 per eye
Refresh Rate 75 Hz, 72 Hz, 60 Hz
Viewing Optics 100° Field of View (nominal)
Positional Tracking Sensor Near Infrared CMOS Sensor

Oculus Rift sounds good…probably too good to be true. The studio behind this ambitious project is called Oculus VR, recently bought by Facebook for $2 billion. So, we know someone has faith in them, quite a lot of faith, to be exact. Yet the question remains, will Oculus work?
 
The original investment for Oculus Rift was a little over $2 million, but it’s safe to assume with the help of Facebook, investment as well as interest for the project has grown.
