😎Internal speaker volume just loud enough to hear instructions over exhibition hall
😐Tracking latency on very fast motion noticeable - not sure if updating at 60 or 72 FPS. Still playable.
😎Compute power seems higher than Oculus Go, although hard to tell with low poly game.

Oculus Quest 1st impressions with Project Tennis Scramble 2-player game:
😎Tracking is good-almost Rift level
😎Headset is heavier than Rift & Go, but reasonable when jumping around
😎Guardian rock solid
😎Wii Tennis-level fun
🤕Wii Tennis-level breaking household objects

Manifold - a 3D 360-video camera system & distribution framework by Facebook & RED. Camera is enormous - beach ball. Flat screen video demo’d amazing resolution & colour, but imperfect stitching & very limited 6DoF parallax. Doesn’t appear to be volumetric video or lightfield.

Oculus Quest $399 wireless 6DOF VR.

Traditionally, game engine animation is done with an external tool.
For BeatiBot, we simplified the pipeline and eliminated round-tripping with the @SoxwareInteract UMotion Pro Unity asset.
Combined with Timeline, it's like having Maya or MotionBuilder directly in @unity3d

[Soxware Interactive @SoxwareInteract]

Check out this amazing animated movie called @BeatiBot. It has been created entirely in @unity3d using UMotion Pro for all animations.

Congrats to @vmccurley for this brilliant work!
