Breakdown of Oculus Rift Virtual Reality Headset and Integrating with Unity3d and Jibe

I'm eagerly awaiting my own developer version of the Oculus Rift, which should arrive in about a month.

My plans are to immediately start working on how to best integrate it with Jibe and Unity3d.  

In particular, our newly released Jibe 2.0 has a built-in 1st-person perspective mode that is ideal for things like virtual reality headsets.

Exploring a multiuser Jibe 2.0 world in 1st-person perspective.  

Keep an eye on this blog for future details.

Needless to say, I was very excited to see the folks at iFixit posting a great teardown of the developer version of the Oculus Rift headset.

If you have an Oculus Rift and would like to brainstorm with me on how it can be integrated with multiuser virtual world applications, please drop me an email (pathfinder@reactiongrid.com) or post in the comments.

Perhaps we can also schedule a Team Fortress 2 game while using our headsets!

P.S.  ReactionGrid's Lead Developer Matthew Bertrand is also getting an Oculus Rift dev kit.  He's pretty psyched about it, and we all expect amazing things from him!
