There’s a chance that Sony<\/strong><\/em> is launching the next version of PlayStation VR<\/strong><\/em>, the company’s VR headset, in multiple models.<\/p>\n

\u201eI talked about wireless, for example. That\u2019s one easy way to do it. Here\u2019s a wired headset. You can take the wire and replace it with wireless. And then you can have a range. So you can have an introductory model and a high-end model. That\u2019s something we\u2019ve done with PlayStation 4. We could do that with PSVR,\u201d Dominic Mallinson from PlayStation’s R&D, told VentureBeat<\/a><\/span>\u00a0at Collision in Toronto.<\/p>\n

\u201eWe\u2019re already beginning to see gaze tracking in some products on display at industry events. I think it has the greatest potential to change the VR user experience at a pretty fundamental level. I think it was Shakespeare who coined this phrase that \u2018the eyes are a window to our souls\u2019. I\u2019ve been a little more prosaic by saying that \u2018the eyes are a window to our thoughts\u2019. I think everyone can intuitively understand just how rich human communication becomes when you have that eye contact.<\/p>\n

So what do I mean by gaze tracking<\/strong><\/em>? I mean the technology to understand where you\u2019re looking in this virtual world. What is your attention point? And then on top of that, we can then layer extra things. We can understand perhaps your attention by measuring pupil dilation. We can do biometrics to understand who you are looking at. \u2026 And we can measure your IPD (interpupillary distance) \u2014 the distance between your pupils. This is very important to VR because it allows us to accurately set up the optics and the rendering to give you maximum comfort and to really get the correct sense of distance and scale in VR. So fundamentally, with this technology, we know what you\u2019re looking at in VR. And this allows for countless user interface and user experience possibilities,\u201d Mallinson added.<\/p>\n

So the next generation of the PlayStation VR<\/strong> <\/em>might use this technology, and – similarly to the PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One – it might be available in multiple versions, probably from around 2021.<\/p>\n
