I still shudder to imagine what the CV2 could have been. CV1 remains one of the best designed VR systems to this day.

The oled display, 90fps, fantastic audio, light HMD, ergonomic controllers... Its only real weakness was the constellation tracking, and with my three tracker setup even that became nearly a non-issue.

Replace the tracking with lighthouse, maybe upgrade the oled with one from today, put in the newer optics that reduce godrays to nearly nil... It would be unbeatable.

I still found those controllers to be the most comfortable and best VR controllers I've ever used. The Index controllers are great for its features but they're a bit too heavy for my liking.

The thought of taking a powerdrill to mine, ghetto gaming mouse weight reduction style, has crossed my mind many times.
