RE: Immerse yourself before you judge! - The Doom Experience

in #vr5 years ago

I tried a VR set once in (what's the word for it?) A place where you try VR. I don't know if it's my eyes but everything was blurry (I couldn't read text even though it was big.)

They didn't know what's wrong, it's not the set because my brother saw everything clearly.

Wish to try VR again, but I'm not going to buy a set just to try messing with settings. (Also money)

Sort:  

Do you know which HMD (head mounted display) or headset it was?

following things to consider when blurry:

  • IPD (Inter-pupillary distance) of the lenses (there are fixed (just software IPD) and better with mechanical slider -> if you have a very small (<=60mm or very high >=75mm) you can get problems
  • sweetspot area which means how tolerant is the headset if you move it relatively to your eyes, some have a wide range for sweetspot others not -> just try to move the headset in another position on your head, try to fasten it if too loose (PSVR works if you move the headset up or down e. g.)
  • resolution per eye currently ranging from 960x1080 (PSVR) up to 3840x2160 (Pimax 8k) which can make a huge difference in sharpness, readability of text, but also depends on the used FOV, what counts is ppi (pixels per inch) e. g. very high in the HP Reverb 1058pp for example with a horizontal FOV of about 105°
  • display type e. g. AMOLED or LCD combined with glare/godray effect, but current gen is quite good except the Index has some minor problems with that, but overall not so important
  • bad resolution setting in software because of a demanding app/game like in current No Man's Sky which still has no Pro Patch for PS4 e. g. quite blurry

Thanksn for taking time to explain. Sadly, I don't know which set it was, I know it's a PC one not the one for PS4.

Basically current gen has no issue with big enough text. Even a quite low res PSVR is good readable so i guess you were out of the sweetspot of the HMD or bad software or it was a very old HMD. Just try one of the newer:

  • Oculus Rift S
  • Oculus Quest
  • HP Reverb
  • Lenovo Explorer
  • Samsung Odyssey+
  • Pimax (5K+, 5K XR, 8K)
  • Valve Index
  • HTC Vive (Pro)
  • (upcoming) HTC Vive Cosmos

If you wear glasses normally many headsets have enough space inside for it or maybe you don't even need your glasses (many people experienced that) or you can use lens inserts for some HMD's (but i don't know which one).
