Oculus Rift and Touch Controllers Bundle

Product Information

Rift S stays securely and comfortably in place with a quick twist of the fit wheel, so it can take — or double take — your fastest reactions. If you’ve been asking these same questions too, then don’t worry your Oculus Rift isn’t broken, there’s just been some miscommunication in the Oculus instruction guide. The image for each eye is shown in the panel as a barrel distorted image that is then corrected by pincushion effect created by lenses in the headset, generating a spherical-mapped image for each eye. He’s usually found trying to squeeze another giant Lego set onto the shelf, draining very large cups of coffee, or complaining about how terrible his Smart TV is. It uses a combination of three-axis gyros, accelerometers, and magnetometers, which make it capable of absolute (relative to Earth) head orientation tracking without drift.

Two of these, the DK1 in early-2013 and DK2 in mid-2014, were intended to provide content developers with a development kit platform to create content for the Rift's eventual consumer release. In particular, there appears to be benefits to medical, health science and exercise students when utilising the Oculus Rift as a supplement for content provided in anatomy and physiology.Content for the Rift is developed using the Oculus PC SDK, a free proprietary SDK available for Microsoft Windows (OSX and Linux support is planned for the future).

This guide will walk you through configuring the Oculus Rift headset and Touch motion controllers so you can get started in VR.The Rift DK1 was released on March 29, 2013, [19] and uses a 7-inch (18cm) screen with a significantly lower pixel switching time than the original prototype, reducing latency and motion blur when turning one's head quickly. This is a small refinement of the "Crystal Cove" prototype, featuring several key improvements over the first development kit, such as having a higher-resolution (960×1080 per eye) low-persistence OLED display, higher refresh rate of 75 Hz, [25] positional tracking, a detachable cable, and the omission of the need for the external control box. Since the Oculus Rift was initially shipped without motion controllers, the Oculus Touch was first released as a standalone accessory for the Rift. Most listings are also rated on their comfort level based on their likelihood of causing motion sickness or number of jump scares.
