if you're working to get your hands on some VR in the near future acer is working on two different solutions at once one meant for the home is a Windows mixed reality headset cost three hundred dollars a move available in the holidays its lightweight and it's meant to work with Windows apps so you can do work and be in VR or mixed reality at the same time we tried one on it's pretty lightweight but unfortunately we can't show you the whole experience yet Acer's mixed reality Windows VR headset is really more VR the mixed reality but it uses a technology from hololens it has cameras on the outside which means that it can track you and allow yourself to move around without any sensors to be hooked up nearby less wires and it's lighter weight on the other end of the spectrum Acer is also working with star VR to develop panoramic VR headsets these are not going to be available to buy they have a 210 degree viewing angle which is larger than about the hundred a degree or so that are in most VR headsets it surrounds your eyes and goes almost to the edges and it looks kind of strange to put on and unfortunately it doesn't work with most glasses it didn't work with mine Acer's mixed reality VR headset is going to be joined by many others over the holidays but star VR is going to be meant for arcades showing that Acer and a lot of VR companies are working in two directions at the same time to try to reach eyes
