Companies pushing new virtual reality headsets talked a good game at CES 2018 in Las Vegas last week. Facebook’s Oculus touted new features in its upcoming US$200 (RM791) Oculus Go, a device designed to do for VR what the iPhone did for the smartphone, Google and Lenovo showed off a jointly designed headset that will sell for the half the price of an iPhone, and HTC announced an updated Vive headset with beefier graphics.
Hugo Barra, who runs virtual reality products for Facebook, says “VR is just in its infancy. We’re just seeing the market beginning to take off.”
