Gamerheadlines.com wonders how Oculus Rift's integration into the film industry will change the way we view movies.
Daily Video Game writes: "The online retailer Amazon is offering 25% off on Oculus Rift S PC-Powered VR Gaming Headset. If you’re looking for a new VR headset, make sure to take advantage of this deal!"
Files in Oculus’ PC application have revealed the name of the next VR headset to succeed the Oculus Rift, the RIFT S.
Both Dash and Home have seen makeovers.
It will be too high price for the big consumer market. This will be a niche thing.
Also when I watch movies with other people I will not put on something that takes away the social aspect.
With this I don`t need my friends by my side anymore when watching movies.
the future looks super bright.
jerassic park?! oh man what about prono too! surrounded by ladies
In order to do anything significant with it, you would need to do everything in CGI or film from a large number of angles. I just don't see the Rift/VR having a large affect on the movies industry.
The game industry is a different story all together. Everything is rendered on the fly anyway and it makes sense to look left and right while playing a game (as opposed to not looking at the important part of a shot in a film).
It'd be really intriguing to watch an Enter The Void type movie with this thing.
I think the technology they speak of ha already there as is with cameras. the Vita can take "3D" pictures of entire rooms (all angles) for example and then let you look through it all.
How they say it will be used is so far off though. Its such a cool concept, but needs so many things to go right for it to work right. You can't just simply take a big hollywood movie today and film at all angles, there are so many people standing around and stuff going on off screen to help on screen action. Plus sets in live action films are actually rather small per shot.
