The Oculus Rift is a next-generation virtual reality headset designed for immersive gaming.
What type of input will I use to connect the Oculus Rift developer kit to my computer?
The Oculus Rift’s video input is DVI, though that can be converted to HDMI with an adapter. Converting the signal does not impact the performance of the Oculus Rift.
What are the minimum system requirements for the Oculus Rift developer kit?
The computer must have an HDMI or DVI video-out port. Note that VGA is unsupported at this time. Other than that, there are no minimum specifications, though the more powerful the computer, the better the experience will be. Any standard gaming computer should be sufficient to use the Oculus Rift.
Will the Oculus Rift developer kit work with my Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, or next gen console?
Not yet. The Oculus Rift developer kit will target PC-only. We hope to make the headset compatible with major consoles and mobile devices in the future.
Why is the resolution of the Oculus Rift developer kit 720p and not 1080p?
While it’s true that the developer kit uses a relatively low-resolution screen (1280×800) compared to large desktop monitors, we promise it delivers a compelling, immersive 3D VR experience. We also plan on improving the resolution for the consumer product. Stay tuned for more details!
Will the Oculus Rift work with Ouya?
Not yet, though we’ll keep everyone up to date on Ouya capability.
We’d love for the Oculus Rift to work with Ouya. There are a handful of technical requirements that need to be nailed down before we can announce official Ouya support, but we don’t foresee any major blockers.
