HTC Vive just announced a new VR headset called Focus Vision that includes eye-tracking for visually lossless PC VR.
Most XR and VR headsets these days want to be about everything except gaming, despite it being the largest demographic for headset buyers. Well, no longer. HTC Vive just launched a new VR headset called the Focus Vision, and it’s being explicitly targeted at PC gamers.
Recommended Videos The Focus line of Vive headets have been more oriented toward those latter use cases, which makes the Focus Vision a slight departure, though HTC clearly still has location-based venues in mind. The Vive Focus Vision is designed to quickly adjust for multiple users with quick-swap battery packs, automatic IPD adjustment, and easily replaceable face and head pads.
The Focus Vision comes with two controllers, but eye-, hand-, and environment-tracking means you can navigate settings and some apps with only your hands. Improved passthrough 16MP cameras support high-quality stereoscopic mixed-reality experiences. There’s even an option for 120Hz refresh rates via DisplayPort that should arrive before the end of 2024.
