There are China Archivestwo kinds of VR headsets right now: smartphone-based ones like the Samsung Gear VR and Google Daydream View, and PC-based ones like Oculus Rift and HTC Vive. The two offer low-end and high-end VR experiences, respectively.
There's really nothing in the middle yet, but at the Oculus Connect 3 developer conference, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced plans to change that. He believes self-contained, standalone VR headsets that don't need a phone or a PC will occupy that space and revealed Facebook-owned Oculus is building one.
SEE ALSO: 1 million people use VR every month: OculusThe prototype standalone VR headset Zuckerberg showed on stage looks very much like an Oculus Rift, just sansthe cables needed to connect to a PC.
On the back of the headset is what appears to be a processing unit. The prototype headset also has built-in headphones just like on the Rift.
Zuckerberg didn't give any details of the headset, but did say it will have built-in cameras for tracking your head and body movement.
