 RotToTheCore | Does theater mode use 6dof of playstation | 22:03:45 |
| RotToTheCore | * Does theater mode use 6dof on playstation | 22:03:54 |
 Evening Newbs | No it's 3dof. | 22:04:08 |
| Evening Newbs | I guess someone could see if it drifts after a little bit of use? | 22:04:24 |
 moshi | swing the headset back and forth real hard | 22:04:39 |
| Evening Newbs | The PSVR1 would drift really badly in theater mode because it wouldn't turn the camera on. | 22:04:47 |
| RotToTheCore | Yea so it's only having to power the display and gyro I'd assume | 22:04:57 |
| Evening Newbs | It does start in parting right when you turn it on, and the power was a little lower then. | 22:05:35 |
| Evening Newbs | * It does start in passthrough right when you turn it on, and the power was a little lower then. | 22:05:42 |
| RotToTheCore | it might also be powering one camera? For passthrough | 22:05:54 |
| Evening Newbs | Passthrough mode was around .35A. | 22:06:24 |
| Evening Newbs | I'll test it with a full VR game running later and see if that's different. | 22:07:11 |
| RotToTheCore | Yea think with that low power consumption it's only powering one camera | 22:07:36 |
| Evening Newbs | Passthrough is definitely using all 4 cameras. You can cover any one with your finger and still see. | 22:08:15 |
| Evening Newbs | But only the bottom right camera is shown in the TV. | 22:08:31 |
| RotToTheCore | Would if expected higher | 22:08:50 |
| RotToTheCore | I'm going to assume the tv only shows one is cause the headset itself is doing something processing locally and it just mirrors the single camera to the system | 22:11:09 |
| Evening Newbs | Yeah, here's hoping. | 22:11:39 |
| RotToTheCore | Having the processing of the cameras on the headset would reduce latency compared to sending the feed to the system and having it process and then sending it back to the headset | 22:12:27 |
| Evening Newbs | If the PS5 had all four camera feeds I don't see why they would do it like that. | 22:12:36 |
| Evening Newbs | * If the PS5 had all four camera feeds I don't see why they would only show one. | 22:13:16 |
| Evening Newbs | Instead of just showing a single eye's screen like it does the rest of the time. | 22:13:40 |
| RotToTheCore | I don't think the ps5 is getting every camera feed | 22:15:44 |
| Evening Newbs | Me neither. | 22:17:11 |
| RotToTheCore | Of course these are only assumptions but it would be a waste of bandwidth to send all the cameras feeds to the system | 22:17:17 |
| RotToTheCore | Wmr also does something similar, and the pc only detects it as one camera | 22:22:14 |
| RotToTheCore | Passthrough only uses one camera also though for wmr | 22:22:49 |
| Evening Newbs | You only see one camera feed in the headset with WMR? Wouldn't it look weirdly off-center? | 22:23:45 |
| RotToTheCore | It doesn't look off actually | 22:24:09 |
| RotToTheCore | It shows the right camera only | 22:24:55 |
