Sony may postpone the launch of its new virtual reality helmet

Technology-related sites reported that Sony may postpone the launch of its new virtual reality helmet that video game fans have been waiting for.

According to the famous analyst and founder of Display Supply Chain Consultants and DisplaySearch, Russ Young, Sony may delay the launch of the new PlayStation VR2 helmets until next year, and this may affect its sales of this type of technology this year.

Young expects that sales of virtual reality helmets will grow this year, despite the delays of Sony and Apple in launching their new technologies in this field, and the number of helmets sold this year may reach 15 million pieces.

It should be noted that the new helmet that Sony revealed earlier this year came as a modified version of the PlayStation VR helmets that were launched in 2016, but it obtained a greater display accuracy thanks to two OLED HDR displays with a resolution of (2040/2000) pixels, which operate at a frequency of 90-120 Hertz, they provide a 110-degree field of view.

The PlayStation VR2 also got distinctively designed control grips equipped with keys and vibration devices that give the user an excellent interactive sense while playing, and special cameras that track the movements of the user’s eyes to speed up interaction with games.
