New VR Developments (Part 2)


VR headsets, also referred to as HMD's (Head Mounted Displays), have already gone cordless in a number of different models. Soon, most HMD's on the market will have cut the cord to produce more immersion and less hassle for VR users. Another new feature that we may be seeing in the near future is retinal projection, where the HMD uses tiny digital projectors and microscopic mirrors to project images directly onto your retina. Though this technology is not yet widespread, it is already being used in the Avegant Glyph HMD. Retinal projection may help cut the costs associated with most HMD devices that use two separate LCD or OLED displays, and it has also been shown to reduce eye strain.
