I don't know why even Bigscreen thinks eye tracking is a high end feature for social VR. Foveated rendering means that spending $50 for eye tracking can make the difference between using your laptop, or a massive expensive tower PC. Not to mention the intuitive UIs that could bring VR closer to the original immersive promise rather than just a screen on your face.

Yeah big screen and headsets in general only make sense if you have features... 1k for what amounts to a lighter 5 year old index, with a better screen, but over all less features is not a good market pitch... To add insult to injury after adding everything up to equal my index I ended up the big screen being heavier than just sticking with an index. Given though it was a friend's not my exact big screen, and the weight is much better distributed with the big screen. But it was still much heavier overall than my quest pro and I drilled a hole and mounted a tundra tracker on it...

I wonder if it would be possible to run the firmware for the lights and cameras off of the Soc in the headset? This could lower the additional weight needed, and would make A small set of prebuilt rings to add around the optical module more or less the entire add-on. I imagine the reason EyetrackVR didnt do this is because the firmware on the beyond is closed, and it would require hacking the device and then teaching anyone installing the module to do the same. This would be difficult and probably wouldn't make Bigscreen happy. But as an official module these issues could be sidestepped and the module could be made much lighter. Maybe.

@yfnratchet 8 месяцев назад
​@@Rubysh88 Not necessarily; R&D cost for fitting these components and keeping the headset as light as possible, engineering the I/O to maintain specs while making space in the connection bandwidth for the eyetracking data (however small that is), additional manufacturing cost for more model/part variants and increased complexity would compound into something that ends up being far more expensive than a homebrew mod where only cost of materials can accurately be represented. Add tooling costs if you don't have the right gear and an estimate for labor time spent assembling + testing the mod and it adds up rather quickly. All said, I _do_ think they could offer a pretty simple DIY/slot-in kit for the Beyond for around/under $100. You sacrifice some amount of comfort and FOV most likely but for the added features given by eye tracking it may very well be worth it.

@thenonexistinghero
@thenonexistinghero 9 месяцев назад
Eye tracking for VR is pretty useless at the moment and the coming years. Experimental tech with no use outside of tech demos and VR chat. And what prevents this headset from being a no-brainer headset is the fact that you have to buy base stations and controllers for a whopping additional $600 or so on top of the $999 price (and in Europe it's almost €1400 and the base stations + controllers are more expensive as well, so price of entry there is over €2000). If it was just $999 / €1000 for an excellent OLED headset capable of HDR, then it would be great. But it doesn't have HDR either and you're required to buy expensive additional things to even begin using it. Doesn't have wireless PCVR either. Quite literally the only people that this device can be recommended to is those looking to upgrade from their Valve Index since they already have all of the other required stuff. And even then it's still not cheap since it's $1000 for the headset alone when the Valve Index came with 2 base stations and controllers for $1000.

And if going with adjustable FOV and a standard face gasket would also bring the price down due to the lack of necessity for custom parts, that too.

The only works because it's so close to the face. If they went with adjustable ipd and standard face masks, due to the low nits nature of their micro leds, the image would be completely blurry and unusable. They'd have to increase micro led brightness by 10x closer to 2000nits which the visions pro uses and active cooling as well. At that point, with 0 profits, this things would be closer to $2000. Microleds are very new, expensive and very hard to manufacture tech. Making one with 10x big screen bwyoinds brightness is ludicrously difficult, that's why the vision pro is $3500

I don't know much about how the eye tracking works here, in this case I am assuming for these sensors it won't quite work yet BUT if foveated rendering is ever possible in the future using these mods it'd be massive. Some PC headsets already use foveated rendering eye tracking with PC games like flight sims and it's a gigantic advantage in performance that works insanely well. I think it will be a big feature in the future with a lot of headsets going forward as the PSVR 2 has already proven what a massive advantage it can be and it's not too pricey. Combine that with additional social features and lowering the computer spec requirements making the headset more accessible to run better/further it just makes sense in a lot of cases Amazing showcase by Bigscreen, I love to see them supporting modding and the community.

The thing with eyetracking, is that it's the future, it's not a strandard yet, but if it becomes a VR standard, more games will add eyetracking render technology. Maybe a third party app could do that instead of VR games developers, but i highly doubt it. Eye tracking is a must where GPU are not fully capable for VR, not mentionning their prices, which are beyond (pun not intended) a reasonnable price to get a relatively good and stable performance. It's to push VR even further. Yes it's cool in VRchat, but i prefer the performance/visualize boost it can provide if it becomes a standard. Yes, i want a native beyond solution :(

It is FUNDAMENTAL for AAA gaming on mobile devices, where the performance will ALWAYS be a fraction of desktops and consoles, and games are always going to push the limits of visual fidelity, and object density on screen. We need FR tech, so that these mobile devices can deliver the same kind of VR experience on mobile as they do on home hardware, and open the floodgates for high fidelity VR all around.

Its amazing what community has done in such a shoty amount of time. Also if you plan to encourage community to build stuff like this for the future and be pretty open for it, then in the next gen/updated model of bigscreen beyong, you could add universal connector on bottom of the headset and maybe on top (something like 3pin prong connector) for projects like that and accessories in the future.

I love your company. I love the Bigscreen Beyond. Please stay in this niche of ultra low weight cabled HMDs with lighthouse tracking. This whole inside out camera tracking by advertising companies like Facebook is an absolute privacy hazard. Also loading the headset full of hardware to flex with specs just to make an uncomfortable product is a bad habit in this field. You have absolutely hit the mark with your product in my opinion. An eye tracking module would be the icing on the cake really. Keep going you are awesome.

This all sounds nice and glad the eye tracking works for you. I do not have a Beyond VR headset. I only do SIM racing games with another VR headset, so having eye tracking is a very mood item to even have. The VR headset is my main head tracking to look in all directions and never see a need for having any eye movements/tracking in the games. I don't do social activities with VR or do Avatars - only VR gaming - and none which need eye tracking. If a VR headset I buy in the future comes with built eye tracking in I may use it when needed, but not going to modify a good working VR headset just for doing this. Thanks for this information and take care.

Eye tracking is a must considering GPU prices and the resolutions pushed. We truly need it to become the standard. Im sure it's cool in VRchat, never used that, but the visual boost it can provide in all games will bring a whole new wave of players who can no play on laptops, low/medium spec pcs etc Love this, but please work to have a native solution/option, I'd buy immediately.

Hello have a question, why don't you offer 2 versions of big screen beyond, one without eye tracking and one with eye tracking modular this will ease up the choice for people who are looking for eye tracking support, and for that Super high resolution that requires beefy GPU's. enabling foveated rendering will save up a lot of resources. would be much better than just trying to mod the headset for new users etc.

Please please please keep highlighting mods! Also please also take note on what mods might be popular so you can either add in official kits or make plans for your future products. I know I can say at least for myself, the lack of some features such as eye tracking (and that pesky iPhone requirement for purchasing) kept me from getting this headset, but having steps to show the community you're listening and caring will go a long way to getting more of the enthusiast market!
@deddrz2549

I think the iPhone requirement isn't just pesky, but there really is no affordable way to get a LiDAR face scan, which is currently the method that they get to have your headset perfectly fit your face. Most of not all android phones do not currently have this capability, and it's a hardware issue not a software one.

Eyetracking is one of the most essential things in vr and you should include it natively because even though it adds (very minimal) weight and size, due to dlss-technology, there isn’t a single vr experience which “doesn’t need eye-tracking”. The biggest issue with vr is its graphic-intensity. With eyetracking you can render the focal-point in a higher resolution than the area outside your focus vision, which can increase performance fps and hz or graphic fidelity due to the added performance-headroom. This is arguably a more important point of eyetracking than simulating eyes in chat-experiences, and something you don’t touch on in your justification for not including it. Adding this natively would eliminate the need for third party software, which would make the headset more complete out of the box, and seeing how you prioritise graphics with OLED-display, I don’t see why you wouldn’t include this too. This would pull more users of the Pimax vr to your product, as Pimax has this technology, but many reports on its limitations in immersion due to lack of comfort in such a large vr-headset. As a BigScreen Beyond enthusiasts, one of the main reasons I shy away from your product is this, because even with a 4090, modded vr-experiences like cyberpunk and star citizen tanks my performance, so eye-tracking-dlss with the graphic chards we have today is essential. And for the controversy around dlss in general, I believe eye-tracking-dlss will have a lot less push-back from the community than regular dlss because in regular dlss the whole image is affected, while with eye-tracking-dlss (or eye-tracking-rendering), only the part outside your main focus-point is affected, hence the effect of dlss will be much less noticeable (I call it dlss but yes, it’s eye-tracking-rendering).

Great content and an amazing open-source project. I actually see eye-tracking as potentially impactful for the sim-racing use case. There’s a big benefit to increased fidelity, and eye-tracking opens up the potential for foveated rendering, which has a seismic impact on the visuals a PC (or PS5) can deliver. Gran Turismo 7 is a great example of an experience that couldn’t be achieved without eye-tracked foveated rendering.
@Zuelatak

While I agree eye tracking isn't needed for everyone and every gram matters why can't you just sell the module separately or just another product that has it? I'm glad you at least briefly talked about a kit. I'd rather that than nothing. -Bigscreen Beyond $1000 -Bigscreen Beyond Eye $1200 (or whatever you deem the price to be) But why not both? Why can't you just continue to sell the non-eye tracking product alongside an eye tracking product? You'd just be opening up your amazing product to be more consumers who love everything about your product, but can't buy it cause they want eye tracking. I know this is definitely the case for most people I know who play Social VR.

Any chance we could see prebuilt/manufactured versions of this eye-tracking setup for sale, with a portion of the profits going to the community that made it possible? I know many people would love to have this feature but don’t have the time, skills, or patience to build it themselves. Plus, having a well-encased, polished product would be safer in the long run. I’d also love to see Bigscreen Beyond move towards a more modular system in the future. This would stay true to its core principles while giving users the option to upgrade and customize as needed. It would be amazing to have a user-friendly, modular headset with add-ons for those who want them.

@Thoth_exe

Now what would make this even better if in the kit (if it does get produced by Bigscreen) is if they could put it on a pass through USB cable on the main cable side, or a way to attach it to the mainboard. What we really need next is light weight face tracking and then Bigscreen would even more so blow every other headset out of the water.
@nerddeku9675
@nerddeku9675 7 месяцев назад
eye tracking is very useful for using the foveated rendering function to improve the FPS of games, the bigscreen beyond has a lot of potential, for me the only things missing for it to be perfect are: magnetic facial pad so you can change the specific one made for you have a normal one for other people, you can change the pupillary distance of the device, have 120hz or more, a brighter screen, larger fov of the phone. Of course, this must be difficult to implement in such a small device, but if they could, it would be the perfect device.

I feel like eye tracking and some kind of smart wearable ring with touch controlls would be the best combo to reproduce the scrolling and selecting and clicking shown in the Vision Pro demo without needing inside out tracking. Impossible to find any decent "smart rings" though. Looks like everyone has pretty much abandoned the smart ring market....
@PixelShade

The biggest benefit of eyetracking would be dynamic foveated rendering (to increase perceived resolution/clarity and performance). But that would only happen if the feature is built into the driver right? It would be amazing if you guys looked into this as a future opportunity. I mean there's probably plenty of ways to make this design more elegant if it leaves the maker space and is made into an actual accessory.
@SkyReaperOne

This is amazing! Honestly, one of the things I'm most looking forward to seeing in this headset line has always been eye tracking. That, along with wireless connectivity to your PC and a waist mounted battery pack/utilities would make this my dream headset. But I feel like eye tracking is the more important of the two features since I feel like that will actually help out the device more in the long run. I read somewhere that eye tracking could be used to minimize the computing load by fully rendering only the parts your eyes are looking at which, ultimately would change nothing to the user experience, but would allow for better frame rates at the very least. I also believe that eye tracking is pretty much the only peripheral that is best suited as an in-built feature to a headset. I feel like as time progresses, more and more games and products would make use of this and a headset that has this feature built into it will benefit from better longevity then those that do not. Every other peripheral aimed at extending the senses is pretty much disconnected from any headset, save for passthrough. One compromise I could see as being a viable alternative, would be making the headset somewhat modular. Making such third party mods easier to integrate with it. I doubt that would increase bulk or weight on the device by any significant margin. But what do I know? This thing is already a marvel of engineering. I've literally been waiting for my Index to expire, or for your headset to have native eye tracking to get one for myself. First to happen of the two will see me making an order. But those are my thoughts on it. I'm very much interested in your work and even if you guys decide to keep going without supporting native eye tracking, I'll keep on rooting for you! Take it easy and good luck!

This is a huge development! $1k for a headset alone, I’m on the fence, but if I can get the headset with eye and face tracking with a quality audio strap for a similar price, I’m placing my order immediately! The Beyond is already so compact, the extra bulk is definitely worth the trade off.
