Zuckerberg won′t let Oculus Vice: but there are-Zuckerberg, founder, Oculus Rift,VR-IT information
In April, the big consumer version of Oculus Rift came into the market for a long time. This area is no longer just about virtual reality is a State of wait-and-see.
At the back of this product is a 23 year old boy--Palmer Luckey (until now he did not even have a website translation), he founded Oculus company at a young age, has been acquired by Facebook for $ 2 billion three years ago .
If you want to become a legendary figure in Silicon Valley, so fits and starts school at the University, plus a garage business. 19 year old founding Oculus Luckey and the scientific and technological community of the rich and famous have similar origins. He dropped out of California State University. If you must say a special highlight, that Luckey learned in college journalism. A liberal arts students founded a favored technology companies around the world.
The big man at the age of 16, because of the fascination with video games, science fiction movies. He foresaw that virtual reality is definitely experience the highest level of the game. In order to put themselves on the spot he had put together with six display, but the results are not the best, later also worked as a phone-based mobile VR, smart phones compete in the resolution, he may start from the small screen. He is good at, Luckey to make first is a decent amount of money from the repaired iPhone.
From 2009 to 2012, Luckey has spent countless hours on a different screen, finally made a VR helmet. He named the product Rift (fractures), the "crack" respectively, are the two ends of the real world and the virtual world.
But Luckey impressed is in process memory: early process of their registration number. While doing these things a lot of pain, but with the help of the Internet. Brendan Iribe and Mike Antonov after joining the partners, they help to deal with a lot of business matters. I can focus on a virtual reality helmet. ”
Luckey is a man of character who likes to wear t-shirts and shorts, prior to investing in Facebook once favored by the valve′s Executive Chairman. But valve rupture with the Oculus, collaboration with HTC as the Oculus biggest competitor.
Oculus Rift on March 28 after entering the market, there have been mixed reviews. Zuckerberg stated many times, VR is a next-generation computing platforms. But the Wall Street Journal pointed out that this was the first fully immersive VR equipment for household use, it is expensive, awkward, isolated .
Luckey admit this: I don′t think 2016 is bound to be a year of virtual reality, it′s not a great deal of, it′s gonna take time. This response is out of all expectation. Lucky is that 23 year old Luckey is plenty of time, or at least is money.
Even if acquired by Facebook for $ 2 billion. He still had his own ideas about what to do. Zuckerberg′s acquisition of Oculus of the main reasons is that he thinks it is the next generation social networking Facebook. March 29 Lucky by Oculus shipments comes as receiving a formal interview, people find Luckey idea and Facebook is not the same.
He will not let the Oculus to Vice, Luckey comments
Don′t forget that is, creation of a vast social network Facebook today is not necessarily the future of VR. He said that in future, we in the VR main activities and not the same as you do on Facebook. Nature of Facebook is an asynchronous communication tool, even if it is owned by WhatsApp, WhatsApp had said they would be instant messaging, that′s just the most technically near-instantaneous way. I do not want the Oculus of the platform is too simple and closed.
Luckey tactful statement once again stressed his hope that Oculus is more open, and this is the major difference he and Zuckerberg in the near future, especially in its treatment of sexual problems. Xiaozha first acquisitions, said Facebook is to provide help, should not cause interference in the company′s development. But small bar is reserved, about Facebook and its strength of the company have not lost jobs. Puritan spirit full of xiaozhajian will never allow Oculus platform door open for the sex industry. But Luckey has more than once said in an interview that the sex industry and Oculus platforms offer he won′t refuse .
More is that he wants to push the point of the game, of course. Even many in the industry think that Oculus is a video game company rather than hardware technology company. Luckey that VR technology limited in social and news is very limited. Facebook never put the game in a strategic location, small bar a few years ago the attitude is: we will not be in the game. Now just introduce some lightweight games. VR is to subvert the technology of the future, in the game he is very cautious, in order to let his daughter, MAX lived in a better world than we.
Luckey said in an interview: "Zuckerberg confusing two important experience of virtual reality, is a panoramic view of the video, you can in a 360-degree look, but not complete some interaction. The other is completely computer generated and real difference in the world.
"The timeliness of news on Facebook has done very well, but this is not the end. If only the panoramic video, they now have the ability to do a 360-degree video, I believe the panoramic video sharing features will also be introduced, because there will be more low cost 360 panoramic camera for civilian use. But VR′s charm is that it is not the world. My understanding of the VR at the second level, computers are used to build something completely different. ”
Facing the future, the ultimate entertainment experience Luckey is optimistic
"If in the end you can have a perfect virtual reality experience, where you can simulate the experience you want to experience everything, it′s hard to imagine we could have any new pursuits", Luckey says, "If you want the perfect can easily get in the virtual world, real-life physical perfection may be less. ”
"A good virtual story conflict can have what you want, what you want. One minute when you have adrenaline, and vigorous exercise in virtual world, all of a sudden you went back to the reality of the living room, this disconnect is also very obvious. Real-world sense of loss may not be in the future can be mitigated in a few minutes. But there is no way this is the direction of our development. People spend more time spent in the virtual world of games, there′s nothing wrong, not as bad as writing science fiction. ”
Lucky is a great packaging concept person, he would like to meet the technology in a more radical way. Silicon Valley legend, maybe he needs more time. Since neither Google founder Larry page, Zuckerberg, Kevin Kelly, and more, they want more, the question is--where will the people go will be better.
扎克伯格不让Oculus涉及色情：但创始人有意见 - 扎克伯格,Oculus Rift,VR - IT资讯
4月，大热许久的消费者版本Oculus Rift终于进入了市场。今年人们对虚拟现实领域已经不再仅仅是观望的状态。
在这款产品的背后是一个年仅23岁的的大男孩——Palmer Luckey（到现在为止他甚至还没有一个官网译名），他在青少年时期就创办了Oculus公司，三年前已被Facebook以20亿美金收购。
如果你想成为硅谷传奇式的人物，起码得大学辍过学，外加车库创业。19岁创办Oculus的Luckey和科技界的知名造富者有着类似的出身。他中途从加利福尼亚州立大学退学。如果一定要说特殊的亮点的话，那就是Luckey在大学里学的是新闻。一个文科生创办了一家被全世界青睐的科技公司。
这位大男儿16岁时，因为对电子游戏、科幻电影十分着迷。他预感到虚拟现实绝对是游戏体验的最高境界。为了让自己身临其境他曾用六个显示器摆在一起，但效果不如意，后来自己也做过基于手机的移动VR，智能手机一直在比拼分辨率，他发现或许可以从这些小屏幕入手。这也是他擅长的，Luckey赚的第一笔数量较为可观的钱就来自于修理iphone。
从2009年到2012年，Luckey花费了无数的时间在不同的屏幕上，最后总算制成了一款VR头盔。他将这款产品命名为Rift（裂缝），这个“裂缝”的两端分别是现实世界和虚拟世界。
然而Luckey回忆创业过程中印象最深的事是：早期自己注册税号的过程。虽然做这些事情很痛苦，好在有互联网的帮助。在合伙人Brendan Iribe和Mike Antonov加入之后，他们帮助处理了很多业务上的事。我可以专注在虚拟现实头盔上了。”
Luckey也是很有个性的人，喜欢穿T恤短裤，在Facebook投资之前就曾受到阀门的执行董事长的青睐。但最终阀门厂与Oculus决裂，与HTC合作成为了Oculus最大的竞争对手。
Oculus Rift在3月28进入市场后，评论有好有坏。扎克伯格多次表明，VR头显将是下一代的计算平台。可是华尔街日报却指出，这是第一台完全身临其境的家用VR设备，它是昂贵的，尴尬的，孤立的。
Luckey自己也承认这一点：我不认为2016年必然是虚拟现实的一年，它不会大量普及，这需要时间。这个回答是出乎大家意料的。幸运的是，23岁的Luckey有的是时间，或者至少是金钱。
即便被Facebook以20亿美金收购。他对自己要做的事依旧很有主见。扎克伯格收购Oculus最主要的原因就是他觉得这是Facebook的下一代社交。3月29号Lucky借Oculus出货之际，接受了一段正式的采访，人们发现Luckey的想法竟然与Facebook是不一样的。
扎克伯格不会让Oculus涉及色情，Luckey有另外的意见
不要忘记的一点是，Facebook今天建立的庞大的社交网络不一定是VR的未来。他说，将来我们在VR里的主要活动和你在Facebook上做的不一样。Facebook本质还是一个异步通讯工具，哪怕是旗下的WhatsApp也是，虽然WhatsApp有说自己是即时通讯，那只是技术上最接近即时的方式。我不希望Oculus这个平台过于单一和封闭。
Luckey委婉的语句中再次强调了他希望Oculus更加开放，而这或许是他近期与扎克伯格最大的分歧，尤其是在对待色情问题上。尽管小扎当初在收购时说Facebook主要是提供帮助，在公司发展上不会做干涉。但小扎虽然为人矜持，对待Facebook内部以及对旗下的公司一直有着不输于乔布斯的强势。清教精神十足的小扎坚决不允许Oculus平台为色情行业敞开大门。但Luckey已经不止一次在采访中表明色情行业与Oculus平台结合他是不会拒绝的。
当然游戏更是他想大力推进的一点。甚至很多业内人士认为Oculus是一家游戏公司而非硬件科技公司。Luckey认为如果VR技术仅仅局限在社交与新闻播报上是很局限的。Facebook则始终没有把游戏放在一个战略的位置上，小扎几年前的态度是：我们绝不会做游戏。如今也只是推出一些轻量级的游戏。VR是颠覆人类未来的科技，因此在游戏上扎克伯格是很谨慎的，为了让他的女儿MAX活在比我们更好的世界。
Luckey在采访中说：“扎克伯格混淆了虚拟现实两种重要的体验，一种是全景的视频，你可以身在其中360度的看，但不能完成一些交互。另一种是完全由计算机生成的与现实不同的世界。
“Facebook上新闻的及时性已经做得很好，但这还不是终点。如果仅仅是全景视频的话，他们现在完全有能力去做360度的视频，相信很快也会推出全景视频分享的功能，因为会有更多价格低廉的360民用全景相机。但VR的魅力更在于它与世界不一样。我对VR的理解处在第二层次，要用计算机去构建完全不一样的东西。”
面对未来人们的终极娱乐体验Luckey很乐观
“如果最终你能有一个完美的虚拟现实体验，在那里你可以模拟体验你想体验的一切的话，很难想象我们还能再有什么新的追求”，Luckey说道，“如果你想要的完美都可以轻而易举的在虚拟世界中得到，现实生活中真实的完美也许会变少。”
“一个好的虚拟故事可以有你想要的冲突，你想要的情景。当你前一分钟还肾上腺素激增，还在虚拟世界里高强度的运动，忽然你就回到现实的客厅的话，这种场景的脱节也是很明显的。今后现实世界的失落感未必是几分钟就可以缓解的。但没有办法这就是我们人类发展的方向。人们把更多的时间花在虚拟世界的游戏里没什么不好，不会像科幻小说写的那样糟糕。”
Lucky是一个非常会包装概念的人，他更希望用更激进的方式去迎接这项技术。成为硅谷的传奇人物或许他还需要更多的时间。因为无论是谷歌创始人拉里·佩奇还是扎克伯格、凯文·凯利等等，他们想的更多的问题是——人类向何处去才会更好。
