Major issue with design of new camera!

Desktop mounted camera. I have no desk to put it on 😞

Please, for the love of all that is holy, PLEASE allow the camera to be unmountable from the stand, with a monitor stand attachment. This is my computer desk:

Yea, it's an Obutto. The triple monitor setup, oddly enough, isn't for sims (I use the rift :lol: ).. But it does increase productivity a crap ton while doing other stuff.

Where did you see that? I looked at the site but couldn't find any info.

I haven't seen the stream (had to sleep 2 hours before getting ready for work), but the camera is rather worrying. Looks like a complete pain for developers, do I have to put it in front of my monitor every time I want to put the rift on to test? Then move it again because it's blocking my view when I'm coding? That will get old very fast compared to the dk2 camera's monitor clamp. Distance was better for dk2 too, further away on the monitor instead of in front of it is superior for camera field of view.

(Not fun for laptops either, having to sit the camera stand on the keyboard?)

Damn it, no time for more reading, got a train to catch soon and a 6 hour class on network programming to teach...)

I don't think it's JUST a camera, but this was just a top level "reveal" to get people interested again, I Think.

Partnering with microsoft makes me think it's inside-out kinect PLUS IR. The biggest point is that nobody really knows because zero specs were revealed, just a name.

They very clearly said the tracking device also tracks real world objects.

someone needs to go to the patent office.

The only thing that desk is missing is a chair like this:



Which can be repositioned like this if you can't mount your rift camera properly:
