Will Playstation VR headsets make an impact on drone technology?

Sony has hinted on further developing the Playstation VR to adapt into 360 degree movies and developed the VR experience from the movie "The Walk". However recently, a new set of niche products have begun to hit the mainstream using Flying Drone technology in combination with 360 degree headsets. Could Sony develop into the Drone Technology allowing users to seamlessly control their drones in the real world, and how would users react to trespassing and privacy laws.

The Playstation VR has everything a VR headset needs, high latency rates, complete precision and a host of new controllers. Could the PSVR be the perfect solution for control and more than just playing games and allow real world interactions at an unprecedented scale?

Augmented Reality failed with the Microsoft Kinect but may take shape in future devices.

I know the DJI Matrice has this already where you can hook an Oculus up to a laptop and you see through the Oculus what the camera sees, and when you turn your head, the camera turns as well. In that video I also saw where you can do a lot of different things on that platform, like using gestures with your hand to fly the drone, instead of a traditional controller. Pretty damn cool.

And if your teacher is super cute, you can mod a body to her so it looks like she's wearing lingerie... or nothing.

Yeah... I'm a perv!!!

sounds like more live service stuff....

Obscure_Observer6d ago

Definitely.

Looks like they haven´t abandoned their live service plans after all.

"Our first game is a team-based action game that draws inspiration from fighting games, platformers, MOBAs, life sims, and frog-type games. Players will inhabit a lighthearted, comedic world set in brand-new, mythic, science-fantasy universe. We can’t wait to reveal more."

At least it's not an extraction shooter. It's team-based, so not likely my thing. But perhaps it will at least add something new to the current slew of MP games out there?

YourMommySpoils6d ago

What's the LFG stand for?... Les. Oh, let's not go there.

darthv726d ago

..well their definition is: The “LFG” in “teamLFG” stands for “Looking For Group.”

staticall6d ago

At least it's not «LandFill Gas»

"industry veterans who have shipped titles like Destiny, Halo, League of Legends, Fortnite, Roblox, and Rec Room"

"and richly social virtual worlds"

"where players can find friendship, community, and belonging"

"We will make immersive multiplayer worlds"

"but throughout live service as we continue to grow the game and community for years to come"

"Our first game is a team-based action game that draws inspiration from fighting games, platformers, MOBAs"

Jesus. Does Sony ever learn? Like if they want to partner with them that's cool and all but buying the studio right off the bat? It's insane thinking after all the money they've just lost from Concord, not to mention the lack of actual hype for Marathon. Who is making the decisions here?

ravens526d ago

This is their main multiplayer studio now. Hopefully nomore pullin teams like Santa Monica, Bluepoint, Naughty Dog etc into stupid multiplayer endeavors.

P_Bomb6d ago

Yeah, I’m not feelin’ this new project tbh. Another live service?

SonyStyled6d ago

They didn’t buy the studio. They created it

-Foxtrot6d ago

Buying it or not they still had to put a lot of money into it

They could have created a new studio to reboot some older titles or ones inspired by them. A JRPG like Legend of Dragoon, a first person shooter like Resistance or a platformer like Jak and Daxter.

TheColbertinator6d ago

The only way Sony will learn is through pain.

Extermin8or3_5d ago

Thry didn't buy the stufio they created the studio. Big difference.

Can't believe they killed Japan Studio, London Studio, and Pixelopus for this, Destiny, and Concord.

Maybe they'll be able to keep Playstation console prices stable as a result. One can dream.

Outside_ofthe_Box6d ago

I doubt. Only reason PS console prices hasn't change is because Sony stock piled in anticipation of tariffs. 6-12 months at best until they announce their own increases.
