    The @oculus Quest panel for #GDC2019 starts in 30 and the line has already wrapped in on itself. Guess I'll start my thread for this session now :)pic.twitter.com/OD7ecsceI7

        This session will be mostly about Quest, but there will be some Rift S things. Like this picturepic.twitter.com/GhSrquL5Hs

        #OculusQuest will need a phone to do the initial set up (like Go does) but is otherwise entirely standalone

        #OculusQuest handles best in a 25ft by 25ft cube, for things like Guardian. It's designed to be, first and foremost, a gaming platform.pic.twitter.com/hYoDu712nH

        1216x1344 usable in the headset (devs can tweak higher resolution if needed) And, of course, 72fps. Snapdragon 835, tweaked to run much harder than a phone because of its cooling system. #OculusQuest

        CPU/GPU will automatically clock up and down in high/low resource environment, devs have the ability to warn the OS when something big in a game is going to happen. Also, 4X MSAApic.twitter.com/4BeYiio7hW

        Bloom, blur, HDR things aren't recommended to use when building for #OculusQuest

        #OculusQuest controllers are also called Oculus Touch controllers. Similar cap sensor set up so fingers animate when your actual fingers move. Tracking rings are flipped because the sensors are above you instead of in front of you now.

        #OculusQuest is running Android! Highly modified, but if you are comfortable building for Android already or you have Unreal/Unity builds for Android there shouldn't be a lot of changes.pic.twitter.com/8UPfGo8IAt

        Fixed Foveated Rendering, like we saw on Go, is being used in #OculusQuest Lots of energy spent making sure the stuff in the middle of your vision is sharp, less rendering power spent on making the edges less sharp. Saves GPU, barely noticed by mostpic.twitter.com/KFeUwi3DY1

        This is great! #OculusQuest Guardian system doesn't make you walk around in the room to trace the barrier. You will be able to see the room and point your controller like a laser pointer to draw. And the headset remembers your Guardian set up as you go from room to room.pic.twitter.com/BI7sgSLCjl

        Optimizing a Rift game for #OculusQuest means a lot of sacrificing, optimizing for the lesser chipset. But far from impossible, lots of success so far.pic.twitter.com/atfdbrjYIk

        App set up for #OculusQuest is fairly standard Android stuff. App core is in the APK, heavy assets in as many data files as you wantpic.twitter.com/zWa4kWMME9

        Oculus is asking developers to reach out as early in the development prices as possible if you're submitting a game to #OculusQuest because it intends to be very critical of games it shows into the Quest Store and wants to help you succeed. This is a Quest-specific policy.pic.twitter.com/ODGrnl7ADr

        Rift S resolution is higher, but min spec is the same because the headset is intentionally limited to 80FPS 10fps drop from from CV1 is... Interesting.pic.twitter.com/lS0sOdTZY2

        Long term, Oculus sees Quest and Rift eventually existing at opposite ends of the VR spectrum. And that's it for today! Let me know what questions you have and I'll try to get them answered later today when I do hands on with the hardware.
