Oculus has been trying to develop VR devices since its inception, and the first prototype has attracted attention from all walks of life. In 2014, Oculus was acquired by Facebook, and thanks to strong capital support, the Oculus team has created a more mature VR product. In the same year that HTC VIVE was released, Oculus launched a consumer version of the Oculus Rift, which established the dominance of the computer VR field in one fell swoop.
 
At present, Oculus only has two products, the Oculus Rift is a console VR, and the other Oculus Go is an all-in-one VR.
 
Compared to HTC, Oculus is more affordable, with the Oculus Rift bundle costing $349. Almost $100 cheaper than HTC VIVE. Because of this, the Oculus Rift has been selling well since its release, and according to Steam platform data, the Oculus Rift is the most used VR device on the platform.
 
As the champion product selected by Wirecutter, the Oculus Rift feels quite good to use. The Rift screen looks the same as the VIVE, but it's lighter and more comfortable to wear. The Rift uses an external camera to determine the position of the VR glasses and controller. Compared to HTC VIVE's laser positioning, the Rift is slightly inferior in terms of positioning accuracy, but this technology achieves 6DoF at a lower cost and requires less space area.
 
In terms of game resources, Oculus is one of the few that can compete with HTC. At present, the total number of games on the Steam platform has reached more than 1,800, second only to VIVE, and exclusive games including Lone Echo and Arktika.1 are also well received by players. However, it should be pointed out that the Oculus Rift is not currently available in China, and it does not support the domestic network environment when using it.
 
Although the pricing of the Rift is not high, it still needs to run with a high-performance computer, and the audience is small. To drive the adoption of VR devices, Oculus has launched its entry-level Oculus Go, an all-in-one VR that starts at $199, less than half the price of the HTC VIVE Focus, and while both are all-in-one VR, the Oculus Go is more focused on video.
 
At present, Oculus has reached cooperation with YouTube, Hulu, ESPN and other content giants, and the available video resources are quite rich, but Oculus Go cannot be used in the domestic network environment.
