Presentation: Apart from a few headsets sent out to developers the headset never had an official release, only some were sent out to the AR start-ups and business partners and they were always just the headset in a brown, unbranded box

Description: One of the biggest problems with high-end VR headsets is they all rely on high-end PC’s to run them! It’s at this point SmartGoggles comes into the arena and beats them all. This is not just any other VR system it is a high-spec all-in-one system! Nothing else needed, literally the World’s first play-n-play virtual reality system.
Apparently, Sensics SmartGoggles are “to standard goggles what Smart Phones are to flip phones.” It is a computer, screen, movement sensor and gesture sensor all on one. This single headset also you do download software straight into the headset and use it! This is how all VR headsets should have been right from the start. Having the ability to control everything with your own hands is a great built-in feature that could give this amazing headset the edge.

Review: Sensics Smart Goggles was never really meant for the public eye and I also feel a little sorry for them. Releasing this headset was supposed to be a big VR comeback, but Oculus was already stealing the limelight. Even when you compare the stats to an Oculus Rift DK2 the Sensics Smart Goggles was a serious contender, but price and weight is what held them back and while it could have been Sensics leading the way on the future of VR, it was not meant to be.
