Not my video so........
and lighting
You know this isnt some sort of secret sauce that makes everything better right? Do they say what application of learning it is? i.e. how intelligent it is
Soldato
Its not quite skynet intelligent more like hal9000.
Some details about the sort of work Oculus has put into their inside-out tracking system:

They've used neural nets to train the system to even filter out christmas tree lights.

No other VR inside out tracking system can match this currently.

Probably more like Holly though
Agreed.
If you want the best tracking, Index.
If you want really good tracking, Oculus.
If you want below that; everyone else.

Finally read my mail today, they say the 30th of the month.
Happy days, i just secured a 3090 too.

Question is, how long for the second and third batch.
I'm most definitely not in the Nov 30th batch. : S

If you want really, really bad tracking, get an HTC Cosmos. (The version without lighthouse tracking).
Yeah i did wonder myself, 10 days each shipment to reach SA,
Wonder how many were pre ordered and how many each shipment is likely to contain, hopfully is more than a "ok" amount each time lmao

I'm hoping that the first week of pre-orders was the biggest wave, so August and September can be just one batch, a week or so apart, so I can get my mid september pre order around Christmas.
I'm fine with that. But I realllly don't want to wait until 2021.
Was July the first month people could order?
October 19th for me, website said early December when i ordered, i think thats long gone as a estimate as the first wave was supposed to have hit early November,
Im defiantly 2021, Tempted to get another quest 2 to tied me over

In the UK yes, July was the first month. I think it was May in the US and September in Aus, but people got it first in Australia, now US, UK last.
I'm hoping the production get fast enough to get at least September this year.
This will be my very first headset

Interesting review on TomsHardware of the G2. In summary:
- The best visuals currently available
- Pretty crappy tracking of the controllers
Sounds good to me, as I'll probably not even buy the controllers and the review "might" put off some buyers and bring down the price faster.

MRTV completely disagrees.
Toms review is a bit strange indeed.
But G2 is so much cheaper than Index and the 8K, how does it compete with them?
Ok, got it. So bad. Disgusting G2.
Err, wait, wasn't G2 supposed to be the narrowest you have tested? The "What's more..." adds to the drama nicely. Perhaps the author is disappointed that a 600$ G2 is not quite 1000$ index, and therefore G2 deserves the "punishment".

So they only cleared the first months pre orders,
I think their website was a touch optimistic saying orders after 24 sept will be December, I guess they we just driving up sales, as they seem to not have the best communication from hp of late,
Will see though, could be surprised hopefully

Oh that info is way outdated now.
People are still waiting for their early July orders in the US.
Looks like people in Japan will get their first shipment in January.
We'll see if August pre orders will even be delivered this year here.
The hope is that the second batch comes a week after the first in early december and can cover a month.
There was a delay with the first batch, the retailers were expecting the first batch to leave the factory in October.
But we don't know how many headsets they make a week, how many pre orders there are, what priority different regions have.
I think pre- sept 24 pre orders arriving this year in December is already optimistic at this point.
But I'm still hoping that's the case.
