I like the idea of seamlessly slipping between AR and VR. Even blurring the line between the two.

see, this is what i wanted in vr up to this point, a way to see the world around you because god knows i don't want to take the thing off every time i have to deal with someone coming up to me.

just a single camera pass through would be enough.

HTC Vive has that already.
It has a camera that can show you either a windowed color video (attached to your controller in game) and it has the "tron mode" in the chaperone system that lets you see your surroudings in a blue haze.

These are all questions that will be answered later.
Sulon only made the announcement yesterday. What you see are all the details available so far.

I remembering seeing years ago a game accessory which resembled a backpack which one would strap on and plug in the combo power/controller connection. This backpack would respond during the game by producing vibrations and jerks to simulate being hit by bullets, clubs, etc. How about using a backpack device to not only add realism during the game but also be where heavy battery supplies and other processing could be located. Who wants heavy cables hanging from their head such as with the Oculus.
