There are several ways it could be done better, but at the end of the day, all that matters is viewable pixels for a given FOV/eye relief.
Important Notice: Current resolution metrics for VR headsets are essentially a sham. Counting pixels you will never see is bogus.

I think it also needs to include a peripheral vision metric, and a responsiveness factor.

Fudging HMD specs has been going on since the beginning. This latest trend started back in 2012:https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1523379957/oculus-rift-step-into-the-game …

Love what you did with our MRG2. Just wish we would have thought of it first.
-
It is pretty cool to see all the new FPV headsets that use the MRG2 architecture!
-
Thanks to you!

Why are there pixels that we'll never see?
-
Most VR headsets use only a portion of the internal display. Round viewports on rectangular screens throw away nearly half you resoluton.

I agree, however, the current resolution for the Vive (Can't say for the oculus) is simply not enough. It'll all get better with time.
-
Vive+rift have the same resolution Rift has lower fov and better sharpness, and vice versa for the vive. neither is enough, we need next gen

I did calculate how many pixels I could see in the DK1 back in the day, and it was pretty abysmal compared to the whole panel, still awesome
-
But yeah, like people say, pixels per degree and possible visible field of view would provide easy to use metrics, I believe. After 2 min

Pixels per degree in visible FOV?

When do you think can we get our hands on a VR headset that has perceivable and significantly increased resolution ? Guesstimate pls ?
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. Undo -
Isn't pixels per degree the most important? Especially in center of FOV vs edges. How does mobile phone VR compare to dedicated HW?

Do you think that we should be using eye doctor terminology (like 20/20 or 20/80 vision) to describe the clarity provided by VR headsets?
