VR-laite Meta Quest 3 julkistettiin

Metan ja Mark Zuckerbergin seuraava VR-laite Meta Quest 3 on julkistettu. Hintaa on 499,99 dollaria ja tallennustilaa 128 gigaa. Aiempiin laitteisiin verrattuna kyse on päivityksestä monin eri tavoin. Vehje on 40% keveämpi. Mukana on uusi Snapdragonin siru, joten suorituskyky enemmän kuin kaksinkertaistuu.

Luvattuna on niin ikään täydellinen taaksepäin yhteensopivuus, uusi Touch Pro -ohjaus ja edessä on kolme sensoria. Lisäksi neljä kameraa yhdessä syvyyssensorin kanssa auttavat parantamaan niin sanottua AR-suoriutumista. Meta esittelee Quest 3 -laitetta tarkemmin Connect-lähetyksessä 27. syyskuuta. Meta Quest 3:n odotuslistalle voi ilmoittautua täällä.

Alkaen 4. kesäkuuta Quest 2 on 100 dollaria halvempi (eli 299,99 dollaria).

"Immersive VR + Breakthrough Meta Reality in a Single Device
On Quest 3, our best-in-class Meta Reality technology lets you seamlessly blend your physical world with the virtual one. These new experiences go beyond today's mixed reality by intelligently understanding and responding to objects in your physical space and allowing you to navigate that space in natural, intuitive ways that were nearly impossible before. High-fidelity color Passthrough, innovative machine learning, and spatial understanding let you interact with virtual content and the physical world simultaneously, creating limitless possibilities to explore. Now you can play a virtual board game on your kitchen table with Demeo, decorate your living room with virtual art courtesy of Painting VR, or dive into a fully immersive world to do things that are simply not possible otherwise. Quest 3 makes Meta Reality available to even more people and at a lower price point, making it our first mass-market offering to deliver both cutting-edge VR and MR experiences in a single device, setting a new benchmark for future headsets.

Redesigned for Comfort + Control
With a 40% slimmer optic profile* compared to Quest 2, Quest 3 is a sleeker, more comfortable headset. We also completely redesigned Quest 3's Touch Plus controllers with a more streamlined and ergonomic form factor. Thanks to our advances in tracking technology, we've dropped the outer tracking rings so the controllers feel like a more natural extension of your hands and take up less space. We also included TruTouch haptics that first debuted in Touch Pro to help you feel the action like never before. You can even upgrade to our fully self-tracked Meta Quest Touch Pro Controllers for a premium experience. And hand tracking will be supported out of the box, so you can explore without controllers, thanks to Direct Touch that lets you use just your hands to interact with virtual objects.

World's Best Library of Immersive Content
Quest 3 is compatible with the Quest 2 catalog of over 500 VR games, apps, and experiences (and counting), and we've got even more exciting new VR and MR titles lined up for launch. That means Quest 3 will have the world's best library of immersive experiences on day one.
