It looks like the most unique headset design we’ve seen so far from the many Mixed Reality headsets that Windows laptop makers have been revealing in recent months. Asus has added a polygonal 3D cover panel to the front, and supports six degrees of freedom tracking without sensors. >The lack of sensors is a key part of Microsoft’s virtual reality drive, although the company has branded its initial efforts as “Mixed Reality.” Many of the same VR experiences that are available on Oculus Rift or HTC’s Vive headset will also run on Microsoft’s Windows Mixed Reality platform, and Microsoft is supporting SteamVR content. Asus’ headset weighs less than a pound, making it one of the more lighter headsets available, and it has a 3K resolution.
