How does the HN crowd feel about the upcoming return of VR? Anyone here order an an Oculus Rift dev kit from Kickstarter like me? Anyone actually try the device out first-hand?
This tech is being discussed for use in VR because it stimulates nerves to make your body feel like it's moving. Imagine that roller coaster feeling while playing a flight simulator.
