I like the VR vest a lot better than this. Getting down from 14ms is going to be a significant task and will be tough to match a wire. I'm holding off on major system updates other than my Skull Canyon NUC till some of this pans out. I'm assuming Intel or someone will eventually sell complete systems in a vest/backpack that are also a desktop PC.

Currently, WiGig introduces an additional 14ms of lag, but Intel is working to push that to below 10ms.

Ugh. Forget it.

Why does it add ~1 frame of latency? Is that due to compression? Whatever, the reason, they should drop it and focus on a transport which adds no more than a few scanlines worth of latency.

The total latency budget for VR is like, less than 20ms. Taking out 14ms or even 10ms for wireless transmission is just not viable.

They said it supports 60hz right now. I think they need to get that up to 90

Oops nm I read that all wrong
