A recent patent filing by NVIDIA confirms rumors from earlier this year that the company was working on a virtual reality (VR) head-mounted display (HMD). The HMD is powered by the Tegra X1 Super Chip and is visually similar to other current and upcoming VR offerings such as the Oculus Rift. The device will have three sets of cameras, two looking down, two looking front, and two looking to the sides. Three sets of cameras will "help map the real world area surrounding the player when using the device," while the bottom cameras will "track gestures with ‘sub-millimetre movement resolution’, which suggest hand-tracking as a potential form of input for the kit."
