Dug the Rift out of storage for the first time in years and investigated the current state of Oculus on PC (spoiler: miserable), but did install Horizon Worlds and accidentally found myself in a laser tag arena with a bunch of real people running around shooting each other and chatting over the mic. It was a surprisingly fun discovery.
Of course, such an experience is only possible with hand controllers, so not something I expect to see on visionOS 🫤
@stroughtonsmith I watched the Meta Connect keynote in Horizon Worlds last week, the 3D cameras they were using for the live stream looked great! I wonder what their setup was for that.
Last year it was just a regular 2D video stream, with cute 3D animations around the virtual stage. This year they displayed a live 3D video stream on a big screen, and had virtual models of the Quest 3 and the smart sunglasses to look at afterwards.
@stroughtonsmith Yep, I just logged into the Meta Connect world now and it's playing a replay of the keynote. Says it's available until next week. There's also a bunch of concerts and stuff you can watch replays of, too.
Here's the link to the Meta Connect world, if you can't find it in the Events tab or the world search: https://oculus.com/experiences/event/674951447846205
