Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth confirms the battery life for the upcoming Quest 3, if you should buy a Quest Pro or the new Quest 3 and is threads coming to vr?

A new week a new leak for the quest 2 pro. This time we get a view from inside the headset and its color pass through and mixed reality capabilities. Virtual office creator immersed shared the video showing off, what to me definitely looks like a quest pro creating a virtual conference room from a smaller table in someone’s home complete with other avatars joining the conference.  Immersed also give us a glimpse out of a virtual office set up with multiple digital windows for productivity using color passthrough and implementing an actual keyboard just like we’ve seen on the quest 2 infinite office feature. Oh and a familiar video thumbnail down there in a discord window. Maybe they used my video to this in obs!? 

Slowing down the video and looking at this frame we do see something we haven’t before in the form of a thick sided facial cover pad to prevent light leakage into the headset. My guess is that we will see this come as an add on accessory and from third party dealers. As with any of this it all could be clever editing but to me its looking a lot like the quest pro which we will finally get the full details of next week so get subscribed and stay tuned for coverage of Meta connect 2022. Are any of you interested in pre-ordering or buying a quest 2 pro? Let me know in the comments below and as always thanks for watching I’ll catch you in the next quickie

Looking at the Public Test Channel for the Upcoming Quest Update 43 there’s quite a pleasant surprise that I think we all can get excited about.

To help try and cushion the blow of the quest price increase the next quest firmware update is coming with a bunch of desired features like of course replacing the facebook account requirements with new meta accounts and now new video capture options for all of you vr content creators out there.

Reddit user delicious potato2 spotted new video options that seem to nearly mirror the video recording options that came to the oculus developer hub last month with one additional feature that in my opinion is king here. Image stabilization. Usually watching back VR video especially in widescreen the footage can be jarring and even induce motion sickness for some due to head movements that feel natural when you are in headset but tend to be hard to keep up with on flat screen video recordings.

Meta does preface that increasing image stabilization will decrease field of view which makes sense, but nonetheless this is a great feature for anyone who likes to make VR content.

Along with stabilization you can choose the default aspect ratio for photos and videos, frame rate options, a choice of recording the left or right eye and my 2nd favorite feature choosing the video bit rate for better overall video recording quality. Just for reference the default recording bit rate before was 5 mbps, which is kinda blehhh.

Delicious potato 2 also found a permission selector for allowing eye tracking inside the menuss which I would think seems to hint that the quest pro / project cambria is nearing a public launch. 

Anyone wanna take bets? Throw down in the comments what month you think the pricey quest pro is going to be released. I’m thinking october.

One more quest bit to leave you with here if you haven’t yet, go check out the new hand tracking demo meta released called first hand to show off the new presence platform’s interaction sdk for developers. It’s currently in the app lab but feel free to like this video and expand the description for the link to find it and add to your quest library. It’s actually quite an impressive experience for a possible future of controller-less VR.

Well thanks for watching here to the end, I just wanted to say hey I appreciate you, I hope you my fellow Virtual Reality lover have a solid day.

New month, new quest update here’s what’s going down in the new firmware version 42 dropping this week.

Oculus or I guess one day it will be meta move? Is getting an update to 2.0. You can now earn move achievements attached to your fitness goals. Gamify your workout even more by trying to burn 150,000 calories for the ultimate achievement. The internet tells me that's like playing ping pong for 23 days straigh. Also you can check out the new trends tab to see your fitness progress compared to last week. As you can see I don’t really use my quest for working out so much. I really need to get metaverse ripped.

Next up Airlink is becoming official and now going steady with your headset moving from the experimental settings panel to the system settings. To commemorate this beautiful union the devs added a connection benchmarking tool to help understand and improve the quality of your wireless PCVR connection. Setting up airlink will now have less steps and it will finally be fully compatible with windows 11.

A contrast slider will also be added in the accessibility menu under settings to help with viewing text or just making your headset display tailored to your liking 

And lastly Parental controls are getting another round of features. Parents will be able to block teens from social features like creating and joining parties or watching VR content in horizon home, send and received messages in messenger or create posts from their headset to facebook. But note this won’t prevent them from access social feature inside a game.

Nothing huge but next month we get the big one with new meta accounts removing the facebook requirement. Thanks for watching to the end and I hope you have a solid day!
