Will Facebook's Oculus Dash Challenge Microsoft's Hololens?
Facebook (NASDAQ: FB) recently introduced Oculus Dash, a new interface for the Oculus Rift which allows users to replace the Oculus Home launcher with “virtual” computer monitors and a futuristic dashboard with shortcuts to various apps. In the short launch video, Dash looks like the dashboard from Minority Report and seems to mimic Microsoft’s (NASDAQ: MSFT) Hololens.
But unlike the Hololens, which projects digital objects onto real surfaces with depth-sensing cameras, the Dash runs in an enclosed virtual environment that can be used as a real workspace. Rift users can customize their virtual rooms with Touch controllers, then leave different windows -- like chat, music, games, and even coding apps -- in mid-air like multiple floating monitors.
