Here's the thought experiment I'd run. If you have a device that looks and feels like traditional glasses, but enables you to create and place an unlimited amount of virtual displa…

Everything you’re going through is perfectly normal for a startup founder closing up shop. Everything about it is a painful process, and it can be damaging to your self-worth. Mour…

I agree fully, though I’d like to add a layer of nuance. The best engineering leaders I’ve encountered have been hands-off (as you said, at a certain point it’s nigh impossible to …

I’ve been in the enterprise vr industry for almost 7 years, and you’re correct with your estimate being very close to where I’d put it. The vast majority of revenue is from gaming.…

If you have a vr headset, check out “Becoming Homeless” by Stanford’s Virtual Human Interaction Lab.

Very impressive product- I certainly applaud your efforts and agree that the price is competitive for what it is. You can even use ultra wide monitors at similar resolutions as a c…

This post resonated very strongly with me. 18 months is what it took me- everything that you listed to a t.

1. Start with a problem, not a solution. And validate that you can reach customers who will pay for your solution to solve their problem, before day 1. 2. Don’t pay attention or co…

I went from a 3 person startup doing low 6 figures in annual revenue to a startup in the same space that had just closed its series A. I interviewed with FAANG’s and startups in ny…

Like the OP, Roomba i8+. Dramatically improved our weekend chores routine. The automatic dirt disposal is also very convenient. I went with Roomba over other brands as it seemed th…

VR ironically might fit the exact definition that he's going for with the iPhone as being a "real trend." His friends, and many others, definitely have let their headsets catch dus…

Thanks for the quality article. I was going to reply with the same; why not use HLS. The point of poor support, especially in Chrome, is a good one, though.

This is a wonderful project. It looks very sharp and has pretty good components. However, it's usually significantly better, cheaper and easier to build an "almost" silent system, …

I'm on year 2 of my startup, and around month 9, I felt similar to you, so I can relate. Real traction began around month 20, and its still modest. Here are a couple of issues I se…

Hoping this reduces used 960 EVO/PRO prices. Not a whopping improvement.

I don’t have a PhD. In my opinion, if you don’t have a decent idea about what you want to get yours in, you probably should be thinking twice about getting one at all. There’s a hu…

My background is slightly higher-level than yours; CPU architecture. I have friends and colleagues with similar backgrounds, and the ones pulling in the most have either pivoted al…

I've been following your AR/VR coverage for a couple of years now and have enjoyed it and have been enlightened by it since.

Seconded, they look absolutely gorgeous. Photogrammetry scenes are comparable but are still a touch behind these in realism.

Broadly speaking, given a choice between getting on an airplane and traveling a few thousand miles versus strapping a headset on your face, there are plenty of scenarios where one …

Very interesting. I haven't used GearVR much, but Google Cardboard/Daydream SDK's can be annoyingly bulky and inflexible at times. The new input methods that VR has brought about c…
