      I still use the HP Reverb G2 for flight sim and I’m wondering how this will effect it. The Mixed Reality app comes up just from connecting the headset to the PC and AFAIK needs to be open in order for the VR to work. I guess it’ll just be deprecated and still there.

    That’s too bad. Apparently their holo lens was really good. But pricing it at $4000 meant most people weren’t interested.

    I didn’t even know that was a thing 🤷

    Though all I care about VR is Beat Saber on my Quest 2…

      They thought they were going to sell it to the US Army as a combat HID but they were far too frail and gave people motion sickness. Additionally, to develop for it you needed to use their Windows-only dev tooling. Any serendipitous killer app was not going to happen. The product was DOA.

    We attempted to use the Reverb G2 for a training sim but their equivalent of ASW wasn’t up to snuff. Lots of jumping around between frames. Shame, because the display was really sharp, a good answer to the short-lived Rift S.
