If latest media reports turn out true, Samsung is getting ready to enter the fast growing virtual reality market. The reports indicate that the Korean firm has developed a virtual headset that would strap on your head and having screen in front of your eyes.
The gadget that would work with Samsung's Galaxy phones and tablets has been sent to developers for testing purposes. If all goes well then the final product could be launched by the end of this year. Samsung has refused to comment on the market rumors.
The headset having OLED screens will also display information about text messages and phone calls. The design has ear phones into the frame, making users unbothered to arrange separate leads to listen the music. Also, the headset will be attached using a micro-USB connection thus boosting its battery life.
It would run on Android and is designed in such a way that is connects to phone or tablet with the help of wires hence providing unhindered experience of playing video games. For now, no details with regard to its release date, price and other features have been revealed.
Experts think that its working on mobile phones can become its limit as mobile phone's processor and graphic limitations restrict mobile games' scope. On the other hand, Oculus Rift works with PCs and will also have an Android version and Sony's Project Morpheus works with the Playstation.
Both the latter systems seem to be sounder when it comes to make the virtual reality experience more realistic.
