Samsung Teases Standalone VR Headset at Developer Event

During Samsung’s developer conference in San Francisco yesterday, the company’s head of R&D for software and services Injong Rhee announced that plans are underway to go beyond the Gear VR headset. “The company is working on a standalone virtual reality headset that will incorporate positional tracking similar to the technologies now available on higher-end headsets like the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive,” reports Variety. While Samsung explores wireless VR devices and hand and gesture tracking, the company officially announced its VR Upload SDK, and plans to release its Gear 360 camera this week.
