本文:
Microsoft’s partners will ship a new line of virtual reality headsets to
take advantage of Windows 10’s VR and holographic capabilities. At today’s
event, Microsoft said that the headsets will start at $299 and will include
inside-out tracking sensors, obviating the need for external cameras or laser
systems like those on the current Oculus Rift or HTC Vive. HP, Dell, Lenovo,
Asus, and Acer are all listed as partners.
While relatively little is known about the headsets, the
six-degree-of-freedom tracking system sounds similar to Oculus’ Santa Cruz
prototype, which also includes inside-out tracking. They are distinct from
Microsoft HoloLens, an augmented or “mixed” reality headset that projects
virtual objects into the real world. While the headsets don’t need external
trackers, the one we saw on stage today still looks to be wired, not totally
self-contained like Santa Cruz.
Microsoft’s listed partners are all already working in VR to some extent.
Acer is working with Starbreeze to produce the high-end StarVR headsets, and
Asus showed off a leather-strapped headset behind glass at Computex. Lenovo
and Chinese startup AntVR partnered for a mobile VR setup. While HP and Dell
don’t have headsets, both have produced backpack-mounted PCs. None of these
companies, however, are major players in the consumer headset space, which is
dominated by HTC, Sony, Samsung, and Facebook-owned Oculus. In fact, given
that Microsoft has worked closely with Oculus in the past, it’s interesting
to see the company absent here — at the announcement of what is essentially
a new line of Windows VR products.
重點：
這是第三方產品
合作廠商包括 HP,Dell,Lenovo,Asus,Acer
支援Windows10
售價從299鎂起跳
含Inside-out tracking (不需要另外用攝影機的意思吧)
根據其他報導，明年春天上市
會是standalone的VR裝置 (是指不用接線，可以獨立運作的意思嗎)
心得:

從這張照片看起來還是接著線耶
還是說standalone功能是高階版本才有的啊

它靠什么侦测?自己陀螺仪?

standalone应该只是不用再插手机

跟daydreaming对着干? 还是有办法整合呢***多打ing XD

这是打Vive跟Rift的, PC用VR.

好像有hololens 的模组

有inside out tracking,不用灯塔或相机,只要头罩戴上就能有360度定位追踪.

下一款Oculus产品也是要用inside out tracking的样子

standalone应该是不能连上网络的意思...

TheNextWeb那篇就说了standalone是不用接电脑手机的意思

inside out tracking原理是啥?难道只靠高精度陀螺仪?

Kinect的景深侦测技术+影像处理吧~我比较期待便宜的hololens耶

Kinect技术是有外部镜头的，不符合其说明

楼楼上意思应该是Kinect的景深侦测放到头盔里，由内往外分析外部环境来定位头盔。但这样应该准确度很差吧...

头盔放一个或多个相机做环境感知, 再配合陀螺仪跟加速仪做补正, 我猜是这样实作..

大概跟这家的方案类似 http://structure.io/深度摄影机的inside out tracking准确比过去高很多了https://youtu.be/qbkwew3bfWU 可以扫描环境资讯所以可以知道使用者现在正在环境中的什么位置另外google也提到，除了daydream外他们也会推出额外的具备独立运算单元的VR装置，这种应该会是趋势比起PSVR、VIVE，类似手机装置的独立VR比较容易普及化

环境扫描也是AR必备的技术，微软应该会想要往这方向发展

对，这在AR/MR上也相当有用，Magic Leap据说也是用这家

用环境扫描会有另一个问题，手把...原本用灯塔或镜头可以不增加成本同时对应多个头盔手把其他需定位装置环境扫描就变成各装置自己扫瞄独立判断位置每个装置自己要有完整定位方案。或者牺牲一下精度，例如手把只靠动态传感当它进入头盔视野时才能追踪位置做校正
