Oculus Rift virtual reality headset owners,
patiently waiting to be able to go wirelessly and ditch the cable connection
from their headset to their PC. Will be pleased to know that preorders for the
Oculus Rift TPCast VR wireless adapter will start shipping out to consumers
next week in North America and Europe. Providing the ability to enjoy genuinely
wireless free movement while enjoying the wealth of virtual reality games and
experiences now available.
The TPCast wireless adapter has been available for
some time to use with the HTC Vive and provides an excellent connection even
when engaged in even the most furious of virtual reality first-person shooter
games. Previously the cable connecting your virtual reality headset to the PC
would almost always get tangled or provide a little tug to remind you of your
real-world wired connection. Once this is removed, virtual reality is even more
immersive, and in my opinion, the purchase price of the TPCast is well worth the
upgrade if you already own a HTC Vive.
