Look straight into an infrared laser and tell me how it goes
>>
>>107254542
look into a normal laser and tell me how it looks the same as normal intensity of light in your room. Some micro-dicklet sensor is going to be even less than that. Less than the on LED in a chink toy car. Less than a firefly's asshole. Less than the reflection of your shartphone bounced back from the wall behind you.

op its infrared
-you- give off infrared. literally.
you'd take more eye damage from being out in the snow on a sunny day
>>
>>107254490
Any incandescent light or you know the sun produces several magnitudes more infrared than the ir led used for eye tracking.

>>107254490
the infrared is low power

the radios are a problem, but I'll just disable those and use it standalone only

It's just an LED at the end of the day.
you can tell how bright(it isn't that bright) it is by what lit up eyes look like in the IR cam videos.
>>
>>107255550
for streaming/online and using steam, you'll need wireless
though maybe you can just plug in a usb ethernet adapter in the back and get internet that way, but it only does usb2 speeds...

I'd rather play offline in standalone, or wired through displayport but valve took that feature away

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwyDCHf5iCY

I may not be able to avoid bluetooth communications with the controllers, but that will be lower power, not data intensive and it's the headset listening for controller activity rather than the other way
>>
>>107255711
>It's just an LED at the end of the day.
It's a wireless only VR headset, way more than just an LED
>>
>>107255768
Look at the videos with the transparent models.
The antennas are on the front/outside of the headset
>>
>>107255690
they won't need to illuminate your eyes that much to determine the orientation, it should be negligible and fairly low power, it shouldn't dry your eyeballs out, though I hope people actually do measure how much IR it makes

much better than the other eye tracking solutions people propose like laser tracking, no lasers are ever going near my eyeballs
>>
>>107255765
Good to know you can't actually summarize any thought in these because you have no idea what you're talking about and all you can do is post videos nobody will watch

Actually I think we both have this one.
>While incidence of brain and other CNS tumors increased overall and among non-malignant tumors only, there was a significant decrease in malignant tumors overall from 2004–2017. Non-malignant brain tumors only had significant increases in incidence from 2004–2008 and from 2008-2018.
So an increase in non-malignant brain tumors but a general trending decrease in malignant CNS cancer. I'm not going to pretend that non-malignant tumors are fine, so I gotta give that one to you.

im not worried about low bandwidth bluetooth, I'll leave that on
wifi is going off though and I don't need their fancy 6ghz wireless reciever

>>107256074
mobile phones today don't transmit with as much power as they used to in the 90s, but there's still a risk, and wifi frequencies are 2.4ghz which is what microwaves use to vibrate water molecules, and humans are mostly water...
it won't be enough to cook you like a roast chicken, but it's not entirely harmless
it disrupts cellular processes

apparantely 150 more brain tumors per year over 30 years is no evidence for increased tumor incidence in sweden...

maybe when adjusted for population growth...

what if you could ask every brain tumor patient what technologies they used and how
what if they all were heavy cellphone users? or slept next to wifi router?
do they ever ask such things?
no, so you'll think these technologies are harmless
>>
>>107256173
Do you actually think MRI technology in the 70s is the same as MRI technology now? Do you think a civil war era surgeon is the same as a surgeon today? MRI is actually a great example of how improvements in that specific tech have made diagnoses easier. MRIs are faster, cheaper, and produce a much more clearer image than ever.
A deadly brain tumor is also absolutely something that can be missed, especially with older technology. If you think "danger equal big" then you just have no idea what you're talking about. A benign tumor can be big as fuck, while a life-threatening tumor can be tiny, especially if we're talking about the brain.

yeah, what effect does 2.4 and 6ghz pulsed microwaves have on cells? We should learn that.

>do you think
See this is your problem. Rather than seeking out the information from the global instant information system, you sit here and intuit it based on the small knowledge you already have. This is the definition of midwitism. Somebody that expects thinking to substitute for knowledge acquired from observation and expirements. How would we even know anything about cells to make guesses from them? We could be the top 1% of the population in IQ, and sit here and think for decades and never figure this out because humans aren't a super intelligence that can solve the whole universe from first principles. Compared to someone who just bombarded cells and animals with 6ghz decades ago and you just didn't go read about it. Did you think no one has done that? Sounds like one the most easy and important experiments of all time.

>do you think you'll get more of those pulses if you're transfering HD video wirelessly or just recieving button presses?

I also question this, I'm not expert on wireless but I think it's constantly sending a wave form even when no data is contained.

You can just ask an LLM these questions to your satisfaction instead of talking to me about it. I'm just asking your personal reasoning up to this point.

>it'll still show up in a scan and be counted in stats
This has nothing to do with I said. I'm saying you're fucking retarded and don't know what they're talking about and you're making that super obvious.
>what causes the tumors?
Again, the fact that you think there's a single thing that causes brain tumors shows you have no idea what you're talking about. There's a million different factors. Diet, lifestyle, exercise, age, gender. Maybe you mean the biggest cause? That would be age, which is also caused by better medical technology, among other things. Age is by far the biggest risk factor for tumors and brain diseases. Also just so happens that the average life expectancy has been increasing.
So if you never want a brain tumor just shun all modern technology and die at 60 to pneumonia or something
>>
>>107256457
Why are you asking me? You don't get it. Your method for acquiring scientific knowledge in this situation is to ask 4chan users. That makes no sense whatever. You could ask an LLM right now and you didn't.

>there will be some transmissions like that to maintain the connection, however it won't be chaotic like during data transfer

You're still trying to intuit it when you have no idea what's going on. I know fuck all but I know a photon is not going to damage a cell or not based on if its doing something "orderly" with other photons determined by what a human thinks is orderly.

Oh my god did you even read any of this? This has nothing to do with "muh radiation". It's the heat that caused the cataracts
>The results show that 2450 MHz exposures for >or=30 min at power densities causing extremely high dose rates (>or=150 W/kg) and temperatures (>or=41 degrees C) in or near the lens caused cataracts in the rabbit eye.
Ignore the fact that 150 W/kg is nearly 100 times the legal limit for RF devices, they also saw no effect when shining it into the eyes of monkeys, only rabbits developed cataracts. There's 0 mention of radiation. The conclusion is literally "when we beam a high as fuck concentration of heat into the eyes of rabbits they develop cataracts."

It just makes no sense to me why they would do that. Don't tons of people buy VR headsets for seated experiences where a cord will only be the better option?
Personally, I don't trust that there won't be any negative health effects. But even if you aren't worried about that if you just play racing games or space/flight/trucker sims and stuff where you are just going to be seated then you're just losing out at the chance of having a more stable connection with less latency and everything... Just seems like a really retarded thing to not include.
>>
>>107263863
There wired headset market is already saturated and with their dongle coupled with foveated streaming this will be the first wireless headset that will come close to wired VR in terms of latency.
A wired connection is the least concern about the specs, imo.
>>
>>107264191
Saturated with what? I've been wanting a decent budget headset and they only options I feel like I have are the Quest and PSVR both of which have pretty big downsides on PC.
If there is something I'm missing I need to be clued in because I need a VR setup.

>you're letting off microwaves scott free without even examination, you are convinced it's not an issue because "non ionising"

What are they supposed to do? They don't have the energy to heat anything. They can't bump an electron off an atom. They can't damage DNA. No one can prove a negative but why should they when there's no reason to suggest there's any risk. I can't prove there's not some super obscure hard to notice reason infrared heat is bad for you. Why do we have to prove the negative for 5G or 6G but some of you guys don't care about 2.4 or normal radio
>>
>>107257508
>frequencies
>Do you know what you're even talking about?

Yes I do as does anyone with a high school education or anyone who watched an LTT video. Different frequencies have different penetration characteristics, higher frequency is blocked easier. Even retards are required to know this before choosing between 2.4 and 5ghz

>Also, people have done tests, wifi warns the outer layer of your skin by 0.2 degrees. There's shit that warms up your skin even more, like clothes. You don't seem to be worried about that now?

Infrared warms your skin. 0.2 degrees of heating won't damage you or your cells. You are fractally retarded, you are retarded on every scope and scale.

yea the eyetracking and high-bitrate streaming is great the problem is the lack of color passthrough and a screen from half a decade ago.

lack of color pass though is especially insulting given it's advertised like pic related. and replacing the tracking cameras with color tracking cameras is 10$ more (the same manufacturer has a drop-in-replacement) and the amount of code rewrite to adapt it is trivial if needed at all.
