Tobii Tracking to be Used by Sony in PSVR2

What They Say

Eye tracking specialist Tobii said that its technology would be used in Sony’s PSVR2 headset and that the firm will get revenue worth “more than” 10% of its revenues this year. The data from the gaze system will be used for foveated rendering.

What We Think

This is a good win for Tobii which we have been tracking for a long time. Long time readers know that I am a big fan of the potential of gaze tracking, but it has taken a long time and a lot of turns around Moore’s Law to get down to prices and performance that is acceptable in mass production products.

An image apparently showing the PSVR2 was leaked last week by a developer who quickly deleted the image. However, it looks like the kind of design that Sony had suggested, anyway. (BR)
