Microsoft discloses new Windows vulnerability that’s being actively exploited

Microsoft discloses new Windows vulnerability that’s being actively exploited
..

HP is teasing a followup to its Reverb virtual realness headset made in collaboration with Microsoft and Valve. The ballyhooing coincides with Valve's release of Half-Life: Alyx, the year's most predictable VR game. There's little detail, loosely HP's website calls its new headset "a other immersive, comfortable, and concordant experience" than the Reverb, and an email from the visitor calls it a "no-compromise VR headset."

The $599 Reverb was partage of Microsoft's Windows Mixed Realness lineup, known for its high-resolution screen. HP's stating to a "new standard in VR" suggests it's not competitive with the cheapest VR devices, like the $399 Oculus Rift S. Loosely it perspicaciousness not expense as much as Valve's $999 Index, either. There's no release date, though, therefrom we don't know if it will mollify the current headset shortage -- or if it perspicaciousness be delayed considering of the genuineness that of the coronavirus pandemic, which has slowed representatives of existing Valve and Oculus products.

Valve's SteamVR pulpit once supports Windows Mixed Realness headsets aslope other products from Oculus and HTC. And the headset looks similar to the old Reverb, with two blackness spots that betoken the use of Windows Mixed Realness tracking cameras, rather than SteamVR-style external tracking beacons. Therefrom we're not unabating what this specific Microsoft / Valve / HP collaboration entails.

I will note, however, that Windows Mixed Realness has a convenient tracking system and mediocre controllers, while the Valve Indicant has an noplace tracking system and the champion controllers in VR. Valve's current controllers can't assignment with HP's tracking system. Loosely their most distinctive features use centralized sensors, not SteamVR beacons -- and gain those boundlessness the Indicant would be good for anybody involved.
