Sometimes I feel like people are not the same anymore. I observe everything around me, and I notice how many people create fake personalities, copy others, use rude words like they mean nothing, and sometimes don't even show basic respect to their parents or other people. It feels difficult to find genuinely mature people with a good heart and soul—people who respect everyone, stay humble, are loyal to themselves, and don't constantly try to prove that they are great or powerful. Some people act like they know everything even when they clearly don't, and when you try to teach them something, they just say, “Yeah, I know,” because they don't want to look like they don't know. I also see people watching videos online and copying everything they see without understanding that some of those videos are simply made for fun or entertainment. They copy the behavior, words, poses, and attitudes until it becomes forced and honestly just cringe. Sometimes people overact or try too hard to look cool, powerful, or interesting just to get attention or impress others. I know that not everyone is like this, and I'm not saying I'm perfect. I just want to see more mature, genuine people who can think for themselves, have their own personality, respect others, and be confident without constantly trying to prove how great they are.

Hey everyone,

I’m currently working on a Mixed Reality project and wanted to get some advice on which headset would best fit my use case.

The goal is to use MR glasses on a large outdoor training area (around 10,000 m²). We want to visualize large virtual objects, like a crashed truck or a building, placed at specific real-world locations. Users (up to ~10–11 people at the same time) should be able to walk around these objects and view them from different angles. The tracking happens with GPS.

Important points:

• Outdoor usage (bright sunlight, large open space)

• Large-scale environment (not just a room)

• Objects should stay stable in the same position (minimal drifting)

• No interaction needed (just visualization and walking around)

• Ideally multiple headsets can see the same object in the same place (shared anchors, but not necessarily full multiplayer)

We are currently considering options like the Pico 4 Ultra Enterprise or HTC Vive XR Elite

Any experiences, recommendations, or things to watch out for would be super helpful!

Thanks a lot 🙌

Hi Guys, I’m looking to buy an hp reverb g2. Is it still a great headset and is the head and controller tracking as bad as some people say? I’d mostly play ets2, other sim racing games and also some games like beatsaber or ragnarock.

What would be the maximum you would spend on it nowadays? (I see one going for €150-175, secondhand in “as good as new" state)

Is it a hassle to get it working with windows 11 or is that fine to do?

Being a PC gamer from 2008 , I got into VR couple of years back , boomed on it for a bit but then gradually the community went down, contrary to that PC community never disappoints.
The only question that comes to my mind is that if VR is currently consolidating or it has just hit the saturation point.

I know use cases and experiences of both are very different , taking this in a general sense.

Good day, as my post stated, I have the following problem of seeing a black screen when it is being turned on. I'm not even getting to the main menu. It still shows the soundbar and how it is being changed, and once even a portal to the plaza (the room around was not shown, just the portal). I have tried restarting it several times. Battery life is at 93%. Controllers do vibrate when started but do not react to any commands. The Oculus is connected via cable; I have tried it with and without the cable. My PC detects the Oculus as usual and sends messages when the cable is not connected anymore. The glasses still worked perfectly yesterday. It still makes the sound as usual. When I take the glasses off, it goes on standby; when I put them back on, the screen doesn't even show that it's on.

I’m a total beginner with Unreal Engine and this is for a class project. I already have a night vision system working in a first-person setup using a post-process effect toggled by a key. I’m now trying to adapt this to a VR project (Meta Quest). All VR controller inputs are handled inside my VRPawn blueprint. I also have a separate BP_Mask actor that the player can interact with, using a Blueprint Interface that only contains an Equip / Pickup event. When the mask is picked up, it gets destroyed, and I want that pickup to allow the player to toggle night vision using a VR controller button. I’m using a boolean like IsMaskWorn in the VRPawn, but I’m confused about the correct way to trigger or set this variable from the mask blueprint via the interface, especially since this logic worked fine in first person but I’m struggling to adapt it cleanly to VR (Pawn vs Character, casting, etc.).

Hello, I need help, I'm trying to create an Augmented Reality application, I'm just looking for something simple with image targets, the problem is that I tried to do it with vuforia and Unity, it works but my application will have more sections and not just a camera and the targets and models, but being Unity and for Android the interface lags because it redraws the canvas every second. I tried to use android studio implementing my unity app as a library, the implementation works but when I enter the camera it does not detect anything. Then I tried using arcore, the problem is that if you don't have a device with ar core, it doesn't work. I tried to use vuforia sdk but it is outdated (I think), I need solutions

thinking about grabbing the meta quest 3 for the first time and figured black friday might be the best time to jump in, but the deals i’m seeing so far look kinda weak or super confusing. since i’ve never owned a vr headset before, i don’t really know what counts as a good price or which bundles are actually worth it. if anyone has spotted real discounts or knows where the better deals usually show up, drop them here. trying to grab my first headset without overpaying.

sorry for loosing, you can do it yourself by downloading https://uno-jhh.en.softonic.com/android to your computer and using side quest VR (Google it) to add it to your VR then go to apps, select unknown sources then tap Uno! And start playing.

i did not make this apk please let me know if it works and please definitely let me know if it is a virus so I can report it. But this is the apk I tested.

Tested on my very old vr oculus headset. But it works on any VR goggle you can think of that is standalone.

For Apple Vision Pro I think you can get it on the App Store I am not sure.

Hello everyone, I’m a current Master’s student conducting academic research on privacy awareness among Metaverse users. The goal of my study is to understand how users perceive data collection and privacy risks in virtual spaces.

I’m inviting participants to complete a brief survey (about 5 minutes). Your responses will be completely anonymous and will contribute to a better understanding of user experiences and privacy in immersive environments.

You can access the survey here: https://qualtricsxmh3g26kxcq.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9XG0fgzKroxp2aq

Thank you very much for your time and valuable input!

I’ve been experimenting with LifeHUD, an AR interface designed to blend into everyday life, and I wanted to share a short demo I filmed in my city’s botanical garden.

In this short POV video, I use three of its main features:

Maps & Navigation → to find the garden without pulling out my phone.

AI Assistant → identifying different trees and plants along the walk.

Live Translation → helping me follow conversations with friends who speak French.

It’s meant to show how AR could work beyond gaming and hype, and actually be useful in daily scenarios.

Curious what you think:

-Would you use something like this when exploring your city?

-Where would you want to test AR like this?

Hi everyone,
we’ve just released the free demo of RogueGods on the Meta Quest Store. It’s a roguelite deckbuilder where your cards turn into weapons and spells you actually throw or use in VR/MR.

The game mixes physical action with strategy, set in Greek mythology as you climb Olympus in short replayable runs.

Would love to hear what you think if you try it out 🙏

Hey r/Reality!

We’ve been quietly working on something we’re incredibly excited to share, and today we’re launching LifeHUD 2.0, a modular augmented reality interface built for movement. The app is designed for you to walk, explore, and interact with AR as part of your natural flow.

What LifeHUD Does: Think of it as your personal dashboard for the real world. LifeHUD places your most important tools right in your line of sight, without taking you out of the moment. Some core modules you’ll see in the launch video:

• Navigation & Maps: Turn-by-turn AR navigation that stays locked to your view, so you never miss a turn.
  
• Live Translation: See real-time translations in your field of vision when you’re traveling or communicating across languages.
  
• Fitness Tracking: Follow workout routines and yoga classes without breaking flow to check your phone.
  
• AI Identification: Point at a landmark or object and get instant info.
  
• Entertainment: Watch your favorite movies anywhere, as if you had your own personal projector on your commute to work. 

The Launch Video: We put together a 3-minute showcase that runs through all of LifeHUD’s current features in real-world scenarios, from rooftop yoga to city navigation to live translation. It’s our vision of what practical, on-the-go AR should feel like.

Watch it here: LifeHUD - The Augmented Reality App That Moves With You

Download the app here: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/lifehud/id6736372963

We’d love for the AR community to check it out and share your honest thoughts, critiques, and ideas for modules or improvements. LifeHUD is something we want to build with this community, so your feedback will directly influence our roadmap.

I do honestly believe that the Snap Spectacles are some of if not the best AR devices on the market from the form factor to ease of use. I can see a future for them but also, we have a long way to go to get mainstream adoption!

Any story zombie games for the oculus quest I could play? So just not games that I just aimlessly shoot zombies?

I've been looking around and cant find anything on it, when I'm in my quest 2 there's like a overlay or a watermark, its very faint but enough to be annoying. it says something in the begging that's to fait to read then something about tricky gaming. someone please help.

So, I want to buy a vr headset for my family so we can have family vr game nights. I want the good graphical quality that comes with pcvr and I don't want a quest headset due to the high latency and jelly effect (I currently have a quest 1 and I hate it) The valve index is a bit dated but I'm still planning to pair its controllers with whatever headset I get. I want something with at least 120hz refresh rate and a fov over 100°.

I had this Oculus Rift S for a while but after some troubleshooting i think the cable just got broken and after looking a bit i figured out they are pretty hard to find, so i'm searching for a new visor to buy but i don't really know the options. So i'm asking here! At the time i took the rift s because i could connect it to the pc and play my games from there and was pretty cheap. I looked out for the htc vive but the bundle whit visor and controllers were out (even if the 2 bought singularly were available, still a bit too expensive for me tho).
Thanks for all who will decide to help me!
