Linux Compatibility With VR Goggles?

Posted by kdawson on from the sees-things-we-don't dept.

WorldWarCheese writes "Many's the time I wish I had a little more mobility or comfort with my computer. Laptops are OK, but anyone interested can see right onto my screen; and a laptop doesn't quite have that 'cool' factor that VR goggles / headsets do. The problem is, whenever I've looked at the options, Linux compatibility is not mentioned. Is there a VR headset out there that is compatible with Ubuntu? If not, what could I do to make it compatible, and how feasible would that be?"

    I'm right there with the author. I'd love to have a pair of goggles like this. I think it would be great to have a system that doesn't have a screen, where the primary display is a pair of these goggles.

    It would be bitchin'
