Possible PSVR2 patents emerge (inside-out tracking, wireless)
- Thread starter Wollan
- Start date
Give it to me Sony! I sold my PSVR a couple of months after launch because of the wire hassle, give me wireless and I am back day 1 baby!
Wireless and inside out (one of my fave pixar movies), day 1
YES, we're finally out of shitty move controllers
PSVR2 hype is even bigger than PS5 hype for me, they're hitting all the right notes on all fronts, the PS5VR2 combo will be insane!
Im excited to see where they take VR. Sony has done a good job of supporting it so far. I'd like another Astrobots personally, but I will def be buying into PSVR2. Just dont be another PSP to Vita situation where they drop all support and rely mainly on third party.
Yeah, PS5 seems to be a power house and next gen VR will be glorious :D
For me the release of PSVR2 is when next gen begins as hyped as I am for PS5 alone. PSVR has been such a genuine game changer for me this gen and has opening my eyes to the possibilities of VR. Can't wait to see what they can do with more power and better tracking.
Had never a problem with the wire while playing a couch VR game like Astro Bot.
I'm referring more to the PSVR package as a whole and how much shit I had to setup before turning it on. Hopefully that'll be cut down significantly with this upgrade.
Wireless is a big thing for me, and the next thing that needs to be improved is the resolution. I had a PSVR and it was interesting technology, but it cause me a lot of pain on my nose, the wires were super messy and the resolution was distracting, so I ended up selling it. But I'm looking forward to a revised technology, because there was a lot of potential.
Should be the case :)
But I never understood the hate about the cable setup, they are all numbered and it was done after a few minutes.
I want VR gloves with tactile fingertips and a mini treadmill for immersive movement, Sony! Shouldn't cost that much, right? :D
For sure imo and I also expect haptic feedback after yesterday's next gen controller infos.
Some are already on there (I saw Eve Valkyrie) but it's a great idea. Via either Plus or Now Sony should offer a ready-made VR games library up to subscribers...it's how they got me to buy a Vita back in the day.
Not sure about wireless but tracking is a great solution. I remember the survey they sent out hinted at addressing complaints about the effort to setup and put away. I feel like they will prioritise that over IQ and other things.
PSVR 2 wishlist:
Better tracking
Higher resolution screens
Analogue sticks on Move 2.0
If it does all of those then I'm going to be a very happy camper. Wireless would be nice but it's not been an issue for me with my setup so if it's not there it's not that big of a deal for me.

So that is what that "hole" that is seen by the journos was on the DS5 huh? And their speculation was a speaker or mic for the cut out. Makes sense with reddit info and this patent.
I think this is when VR really gets started for me, on PS5. Current PSVR is a proof of concept. If they get good inside out tracking working (and frankly it can't be worse than current PSVR/camera setup) and if it really is wireless.. oh boy. Combined with the power of PS5 and games like GT Sport should be fully playable in VR with much better visuals, that is the moment VR goes from cool gimmick to the prime way to play that game (and I love my racers so that is a big deal).
If we get eye tracking foveated rendering as well (and I'm not sure how feasible this is if it is wireless), then the leap in visuals possible will be staggering AND will mean that any and every developer can target VR and not have to worry about simplifying visuals, it can be a full fat experience, but in VR. That last part could also mean 2.5D VR, like playing TLOU on a massive virtual screen in front of you with 3D depth for instance.
Exciting times.

I think that probably came, initially, from r&d on their next VR controller. There are detailed patent applications out there around what looks like a Move successor, featuring triggers with programmable resistance, and better haptic feedback. I guess the DS5 has borrowed things from that work.
i still have yet to have a VR experience. not with a phone, headset or anything. none at all. it's a money/time thing.
i'm replaying skyrim for the billionth time and wishing soooo hard that i was playing it in VR. seeing things like this gives me hope that VR will keep getting worked on and be perfectly baked and ready for me to jump in once i have the time/money.

So, why is this patent using a PS3, lmao.
Maybe they finally unleashed the real power of the Cell?

Finally.
They have learned how to harness the power of TEH CELL.
By fucking 2 seconds.
I hope the PS5 will not resemble that PS5 devkit render too much, can already picture one of my cats sitting right in the middle of it with his wet ass enjoying the heat and air flow.
You should feel happy to wait a little. Current PSVR can be quite underwhelming once the novelty wears off. The visuals really are quite basic in VR, can often be very blurry, low resolution, lots of jaggies, oh and some really poor tracking that ruins the immersion. If your first time is PSVR 2 on a PS5 (or a Quest) you'll be blown away. I'm confident it will be a substantial leap in quality across the board.
