Three VR headsets I want to see developed for the future

Pimax Hardware Pimax Discussion
#1

I want to see these three VR headsets be developed either by Pimax or some other company.

#1: A VR headset with 4K resolution but with FOV that covers the entire human vision both vertically and horizontally. Indistinguishable from real life.

#2: A VR headset with VARJO VR-3 resolution but Normal Pimax FOV mode.

#3: A VR headset with VARJO VR-3 resolution that covers the entire human vision both vertically and horizontally.

Headset #3 is the ultimate VR headset and I don’t see it existing until the Nvidia 50 series RTX cards come out.

Headset #1 and #2 are ones I think Pimax should be developing right now. Headset #1 would be the most immersive and preferable for me. Headset #2 would also be pretty immersive. Eventually the best of both headsets would be combined to make #3.

Those are some mighty fine idea’s

But I think Pimax should concentrate on finishing their current projects, and on the side insted of making new headsets, they should make drop-in replacement lenses be it either aspherical or dual fresnel lenses.
This would take their current HMD’s to a whole nother level that especially the 8KX deserves.

I think Pimax need to drive down the problems with the current form factor - weight, balance, comfort, lenses, IPD, etc - before expanding ambition on resolution and FOV. Unless it’s really easy to drop in.

Personally, I’d be happy to see a Pimax 16K X after Display Port 2.0 is supported by the GPUs.

I think we also need them to be lighter.

I wish some manufacturer was pushing this boundary. We’ve ~doubled res / fps since the Vive, which is great. But I’d also really like something with vive-like specs but half the weight.

I’d want a higher res HMD with true black color. And, if dreaming really big, a lighter, more compact HMD. And, that should happen without sacrificing a single degree of the current FOV to be interesting.

But realstically, I agree @MrAhlefeld that probably the highest priority is better optics.

Cash? Chip? Wireless? Implant? Please enter PINhead code to finallize purchase.

As for headset…“ultimate”…? Well, full FOV high resolution lighfield display would be a nice start… :9
