If you discussed Virtual Reality 10-20 years ago, people would have thought you crazy but Virtual Reality has become more and more popular. Companies like Ziess, Google, Samsung, Sony and Oculus have all come up with their own models of VR. Ranging from cheap $12 cardboard phone slots to incredible $350 full fledged machines. When Sony came up with Project Morpheus, many did not know what to make of it but little did they know that Sony was now one step ahead of Microsoft. Sony had VR and Microsoft didn't.
That may all change with Xbox announcing that they will be partnering with Oculus, makers of the Oculus Rift, the legendary VR system that was announce at CES a couple years back. Xbox states that every Oculus will now ship with an Xbox One controller. This is a large leap in the VR realm ;) due to the fact that there hasn't been a standard for VR, each game must be made specifically for the VR set of choice. You can now play Xbox one games on the Oculus Rift! So in conclusion, the tables have turned and the battle has gone from Xbox and PlayStation, to Oculus and Project Morpheus. Recent rumors suggest that Blackberry may finally be considering a phone that runs Android. This would be an incredible but difficult decision to make, due to the resources and funds that the company entrusted when the remade Blackberry OS. Although these rumors may seem practical, they may have been shut down immediately. "We don't comment on rumors and speculation, but we remain committed to the BlackBerry 10 operating system, which provides security and productivity benefits that are unmatched" The company said, (According to The Verge).
So, incase you're wondering in the near future, I am hoping to conduct an experiment. Many people have been speculating that compressed air is bad for the environment, but when I saw Emzone and their non-ozone layer depleting compressed air cans, I thought "Lets put that to the test". More information soon to come! They also claim to have zero residue, that one will be interesting to test aswell
