I can't wait for #VRheadsets to become so light it's like wearing glasses. #simracing is literally next level in #VR. Especially with the new #buttkicker But I can only wear the #oculusquest2 for so long before I'm fatigued. (I know some can wear them all day and you're lucky!)
Been running #VIR all weekend with the #porsche #gt4 in #iRacing on triples. Hopped into VR and after a few laps I was already negative delta by nearly a second. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

I waited for a good headset for streaming from pc, battery in my pocket. Do I have to buy apple? (I will not)

edit: the battery is only 1/6 of the weight maybe not worth doing this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qV6R1_5HE-4

@BuddyTheBeefalo I don't even think the new apple VR is going to be capable of any kind of PC gaming. Unless I missed something last I heard there wasn't going to be any interfacing with desktops. Eventually. Probably still a few years out for what I'm really looking for. Even further for something affordable probably

@Elegast123 @BuddyTheBeefalo of course it will. It runs apps. It runs iOS. Theres already iOS apps that does streaming SteamVR to an iPhone (for use with Cardboard or similar).

I don't think it's a good option due to the price, but it's going to be capable of doing it, especially now that it seems like the iVRy dev's attempts at PSVR2 for PC seem like a dead end due to hardware DRM, so they'll need to find a new project to build.
