Yea, exactly. I searched around a little and it looks like that’s actually working out, there’s some tiny companies offering 4K VR glasses for 500 bucks now; it’s not exactly an open environment again like in the heyday, but at least it isn’t tethered to a massive data mining corporation.
I’m not sure if there are open environment alternatives. Actually, I didn’t even know 4K had gotten so cheap already, It was encouraging to hear about all the little companies making new goggles.
I loved using the, I think it was 1080p Oculus DK2 for watching movies and playing games, so I can’t wait to be blown away by one of these 4K kits just a few years later.
