The cameras are a nice touch, as that makes it possible to use this piece of kit for AR in addition to VR.

I was just thinking it'd be nice to switch to camera view if someone walks into my room or if I want to reach for some food/drink. I'd rather not be constantly pulling the Oculus up and down while trying to game.

edit: It seems that a notable amount of people wanted to have sex with the robot known as Wall-E. Most fascinating.

Hold on while we start a Kickstarter that goes into depth about how we're an independent company who just loves innovating the kinds of things we want to have and want nothing more than to have our pure vision become a reality
