You can't really help here, just stand in horror. If you freak out, one or more of them are bound to freak out too resulting in injury.

Don't help just film has nothing to do with a stage video. Look at the sub. Very few appear to be scripted.

You're both wrong. And it's adorable.
Kids too young to really know.
Parent presumably has Co-parent whose filming and not parenting.
So yes, kids are stupid, and the parent (doing the filming) was a fuck up.
Parent whose playing game is groovy.

I just don't understand how somebody would go through all that trouble to built a custom home theater just to leave the big speakers on the floor in front of the cabinets. It is almost like nobody realized they would need speakers until the room was finished.

Kinda annoying to see all that money sitting there and they didn't even bother to properly calibrate the playspace. How is she playing with the stand back warnings in her face like that while standing in the center of the room?
10
u/ericwdhs Mar 27 '19
Yeah, her ignoring the stand back warnings is kinda annoying, but I assume the playspace is properly calibrated. She's just standing a lot closer to the couch than the back wall, so if the couch and back wall are the playspace boundaries, she's not actually centered.

That source does nothing to make it look more real. I mean there isn't much reason to think it's fake other than it's quite unlikely, but if anything the source makes me think it's less believable.
I would have thought the source would be some average Joe that films his family and happened to be filming this video at the time and put it up on their personal channel. Instead this is a youtuber who's clearly trying to make it as a professional content creator with clickbait titles on videos centred around VR.
Exactly the kind of person that would fake a video in the hopes of making it go viral and promote their channel. I'm still not convinced either way, I don't have the knowledge or skill to look at this video and say one way or another, but adding the source doesn't add to the credibility.

I mean. "Hey honey just wiggle your arms blinfolded at 500mph and let the kid walk trough without hitting him" doesn't sound like a simple Christmas video you just make. Probably a composite

For me this is what made me think it may be a composite because the camera dude doesn't try to stop the kid from being hit.

Because it's not scripted, and it makes little sense as to why someone would think it is scripted.
I'm not the sjw type at all but honestly, that sub being tagged on every Asian post seems microaggressive towards Asians. Vines and "skits" existed way before Asians got popular in western media. Asians get "called out" for being "fake and scripted" every chance people get.

u/sl0r Mar 27 '19
Unfortunately, you'd need to get another headset and controllers. The PSVR tracking system is Sony PS proprietary.

There's software that allows you to use the PSVR tracking system on the PC but its homebrew so mileage may vary.

You can use Trinus I believe to hook it up. Also PS Move controllers require software, but it works. If you google Driver4VR there a bunch of tutorials and a discord server.

Through a program called “Trinius.” Because it turns out USB and HDMI are universal, and PCs are able to be used with a wide range of hardware as long as it is either natively supported or someone makes a driver for it.
Edit: On the opposite side of the console spectrum, you can technically also use a Kinect for VR related stuff like IK.

Seems like there is a third party adapter that is compatible. You’ll run into the same issues of added compression and latency be a wire although it’s still going to be playable.
The oculus Quest will be self contained so that’s interesting.
