From this article, it can be learned that simulation sickness, similar to motion sickness, is one of the biggest barriers holding virtual reality back.

The Oculus Rift is a virtual reality device designed almost exclusively for gamers. You can use it to play first-person shooter games or even become a chicken.

One of the biggest benefits to having a controller (vs. not having one, like the Kinect) is that you do not have to be in front of the camera for the device to track your movements.

Simulator sickness has been one of the biggest barriers holding virtual reality back. People, even after a short period of time of playing a virtual reality game,can experience this type of sickness.
-Heyn, 1st
Graded!
Excellent! Keep em coming!
I want one of these so bad! However, it says that it is for developer use only, not for consumer product. I dont know if this means that it is still in a "prototype" stage. Or if it still has some bugs and glitches to work out, so it wont be ideal for a non-professional. Besides this, when it does come to the public market, I will DEFINATLY be in line to get my hands on this. Its taking "being in the game" to a literal standard!

The oculus Rift is a headset that shows you what making a video game is like. I think its really cool that wherever you are you can put that oculus rift on and make that place virtual.

Well, the current Kinect can only track rudimentary motions at best. The next-generation Kinect that's coming out with the Xbox One is far more precise, but Sixense's Rubin claimed that there's no substitute for the precision you get when a controller is actually in contact with your body.

"He added, “Simulator sickness has been one of the biggest barriers holding virtual reality back.”
To solve this problem, developers are trying to create a virtual experience indistinguishable from reality. Mr. Iribe said researchers in his labs had tested a set of Oculus goggles that may be able to limit, or even remove, this nauseated feeling by altering the way video is rendered on screen."
With this said it is proven that having the virtual experience will be more benifical for gamers.

The headset will make it to seem like you are right there doing whatever the game is doing. You don't have to be right there in front of the camera it will still pick up your movement.
Jones, 2nd period
After wearing these goggles even for a short period of time can cause nausea, which they call "stimulation sickness". The switch from virtual reality to real world reality makes your brain & body confused.

That the early versions of these are quite expensive and they were wondering if there was a big vast part of land that you had to travel around would you also have to get up and do that to and walk around with it and would that limit actaully how long you can actually play on it.

One physical barrier that has drawnback virtual reality gaming for years is that we as humans get nauseous and get motion sickness our sensory organs are not used to these types of environments.

The Oculus Rift is one of the most immersive gadgets. All you need to do is just strap the glasses onto your face and you're transported to a virtual world. you can also help fund PrioVR, a set of sensors that monitor your movements and translate them into a game, with help from the Rift. It's amazing and I want one!

One Fact is that when you try prototypes you will have a problem and this case it is nausea.
I like these goggles even though they have little bit of bugs, they dont cost as much either so thats the cool thing and learned that is you dont haved to be in front of the camera to detect your body movements, you can see it,

This link interest me very much. The first part talks about the Oculus Rift, You basically control what you do. Its a headset where you can enter a virtual world and do many obstacles on your own. What you physically do now pretty much you can do in this game.
I picked my fact from

the article addresses simulator sickness, which is basically the opposite of sea sickness becuase you see your moving, but your body knows that you aren't, which makes you nauseous.

The Oculus rift headset is the first step towards making virtual reality gaming a public phenomena. It does this by bringing the screen closer to your eyes, and relying on motion detection technology to create the effect of being 'in' a virtual world.

When people tried early virtual reality prototypes, they typically felt sick after playing for even a short period. The term game designers use to describe this feeling is “simulation sickness,” and it can occur because your brain and your body are confused.

This product goes with the Kickstarter project Omni by Virtuix which is a treadmill for virtual reality. This keeps you from walking into the wall in your room. I wonder if the author of this article realizes that games are not real. One step in the real world does not have to equal one step in the game (not to mention that lots of games use portals to get around).
