During Google’s I/O keynote the company announced standalone Daydream headsets from HTC Vive and Lenovo will be released later this year. They'll be based on Qualcomm's 835 VR platform and use WorldSense, a variation of Google's Tango 3D mapping technology, for positional tracking without the need for any external sensors. It also appears as if they'll be using Google's existing Daydream touch controller, though that could easily be changed by the time they're released. There's still no word on pricing for these headsets. But considering they'll have the hardware typically found in powerful phones, I wouldn't be surprised if they ended up costing $300 or more. Thoughts ?
