Virtual reality should be one of the major trends of 2014 (and 2015). Evidenced by the interest in Facebook Oculus Oculus VR helmet for Rift. The social networking giant has offered the startup in March 2014 for $ 2 billion.Sony also has its Project Morpheus which is a virtual reality helmet.
It is learned that Samsung would also be hard at work to launch such a helmet. The South Korean conglomerate would develop a headset that works with its mobile devices (smartphones and tablets, including the Galaxy Note Galaxy 3 and S5). It could remain confined to branded products like Samsung Galaxy Gear watches that only work with mobile devices of the brand.
The information comes from the website Engadget is not official. The details are not yet known. Just do we know that he would have OLED and could leave by the end of the year, capping Sony and Facebook whose helmets should not get out before 2015.
The helmet is tipped to work with the Android ecosystem (not Tizen as the Galaxy Gear 2) and logically be used with video games.
It remains to know the technical specifications and price (Samsung would seek an affordable price).
