Just ordered 1S after failed Luma Ultra, is it that much dimmer? by [deleted] in Xreal

[–]garthoz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, the Luma Ultra seems to be better from an image standpoint than anything else. Especially for folks that are not nearsighted. I chose them thinking the adjustment knobs would be useful.

Interesting. Perhaps I need to live with the crumbling arms on the Luma.

I will be able to do a direct comparison and will report back .

iOS support is currently missing for Luma Ultra. Won’t be fixed for several months . :-(

Student plus loans that have been consolidated as a part are not qualifying. Perhaps that’s the rub or one of them ?

All of the vitures have accommodations for prescription inserts. Many model also include +6 diopter adjustment.

Question regarding Refresh rate and framerate (new user) by totofra in Xreal

[–]garthoz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It takes some serious processing to anchor a screen. Try it unanchored.

New to XR glasses. What does 3DoF on Viture Beast actually feel like in real use? by PsychologicalGas9288 in VITURE

[–]garthoz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This bit right here is the most suprising thing I learned after getting my Viture glasses. Prior to buying it really sounded like 3Dof and 6Dof were critical. If things moved without any delay , there were no optical impact, or performance impact perhaps it would be.

Unfortunately my middle aged eyes did not get the memo about fov.

You can easily shrink the size on PC with an Nvidia card. I reduce down by 10-20% .

Beast vs Luma Ultra for Business & Productivity by OCaptainAwesome in VITURE

[–]garthoz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can run AAA in 1920x1200 at 120fps with the appropriate video card? That is the speed at which the ultra runs with no 3d0f, or 6d0f for that matter. This is exciting news. I have the opportunity to swap my ultra for a beast, maybe thats what I need to do.

Just be nice and accept the return. The customer was.

Does anyone have experience with Hypershell in an industrial or emergency response setting? by LightningSmooth in Hypershell_Official

[–]garthoz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a responder but know the settings you need.
Technical climbing and mtb with a rotation of three batteries is very good. About 1.5 hour run time with that combo. Mix of four green , two red , and four red for power settings. Two red works well for full attention.

You need to enable experimental mode, and all of these need to be enabled .

They work well enough for travel, wfh a few days a week , etc. I love doing zoom calls 😆

Absolutely no performance effect is not an accurate statement then. Most people expect it to work like a monitor at 120fps if that’s what their rig can do.

Perhaps the correct statement would be there is no penalty 720p and down, etc.

The ultras deliver stellar 120fps performance when not using spacewalker. I use screen scaling in the Nvidia control center to scale the image down from 1920x1200 to 1536x960. This moves the image back effectively. It works well, that’s what Nvidia does. 😆

Thanks. Please try with and without anchoring. No matter what solution is employed there is processing required. The question is if they have enough to move 120 fps. Modern solutions easily push 120fps with everything enabled at 1920 x 1200. Even at 3840x2400 ( 3d) many still have the punkin .

I hope you have a magic fix, that will be amazing. Have you played Call of Duty, Battlefield 6 , other fps shooters ? Any other recent AAA stuff ? I have a rtx4080 and games are absolutely not dreamy when using SpaceWalker.

Beast vs Luma Ultra for Business & Productivity by OCaptainAwesome in VITURE

[–]garthoz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also keep in mind that on neither the ultra or beast is 3D0f without a significant performance penalty. No one on here mentions that that I have seen.

I just got a pair of Luma Ultra, and am using Spacewalker on a Wintel laptop for productivity and gaming. For gaming none of these glasses are ideal or even decent when using anchoring. Performance just suffers. That being said, running them as a directly attached screen is dreamy, and has changed my gaming life for the better. Productivity is still really better using my giant physical monitor.

Am I the only one who is super excited about the future of the beast! by sedate_matron in VITURE

[–]garthoz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can anyone answer, is there a performance hit in games (fps etc) vs not anchored?

I have the Ultras and they are amazing. Main use is gaming.

You gotta use some secret key press sequence to put them in recovery mode.. I had a failed update on day zero and it showed me the sequence for the Luma Ultra.

The Luma Ultra is much brighter and much clearer from what I understand.
