This is an add on request to something I posted previously.
With the recent announcement about discontinued support for both cardboard and daydream support, I would like to see some consideration by developers to negotiate support for both these platforms on at least the Oculus go.
The first reason is to continue use of at least the numerous apps available. Although they may be of lower quality in comparison, it still represents content that can be added to the vast library already in place.
The second reason is for preservation purposes in case such apps no longer become available.
A third reason could be useful for 1st time developers learning how to create VR material.

As a long time game enthusiast, I like so many have been able to see how video games and to some degree VR evolve over the years. So in my humble opinion, it's never a bad thing to preserve some of the old material. Hey, the Retro scene does exist and so does the need of backwards compatibility. But I am excited for the new VR projects like the Quest as well. Just thinking it would be nice addition to resource in case Google eventually dumps the VR apps.

Anyway, thanks for your time.

As much as I like VR, I also realize AR is also something that needs to evolve as well. Given examples like the Hololens and others plus the Oculus company exploring this as well, I was curious about something. Is it possible to achieve some basic AR through the casting function?
Imagine casting 3d objects through linking of any camera app on smartphones, where you can point the camera in a room, project objects and interact with them with an Oculus controller. Perhaps take the Oculus TV screen only(no background) and project it on a wall. Shoot floating objects from a game, etc. Doesn't have to be as sophisticated as a hololens, but I both question and suggest if it's even possible. If so, could be useful on all the headsets and promote some app/game ideas.

Thanks for your tiime.

Oculus Go can be ideal for those that are homebound, those with limited technical background, and those who suffer from handicaps or financial constraints that preclude them from travel or going to movies or outside recreational activities. Oculus Go is used by some seniors and those homebound, but I feel it could be used by many more if it can be modified so that a family member or caregiver can view and navigate the on line viewing screen for the disabled. If one has limited technological skills, some limitations in cognition, or even if one is paralyzed, he or she would be able to benefit greatly from Oculus Go if the caregiver can navigate the controller from a dual remote either by using a parallel Oculus Go via a network arrangement or via a casting on a computer screen where the care giver can select and choose movies and apps for the bedridden or the handicapped. Children and adults with somewhat limited mental capabilities, those physically disabled that cannot operate the controllers, or those with limited technical dexterity, who would enjoy viewing virtual reality videos could benefit greatly with a dual support interface, so the caregiver can operate the controller on behalf of those with limited capabilities due to mental or physical handicaps. I am an educator and a caregiver, so I know the importance of modifying products to make it more user friendly for those with limited capabilities.

With all due respect to both the Bigscreen Beta and Virtual Desktop apps which are both fine apps, there's no harm in adding more options. I think it would be a nice, functional addition to be able to access a PC within Oculus TV . Of course, it should have at least the virtual keyboard and use of the Go controller as a mouse.
Sometimes there may be issues with connectivity and functionality with both B.S. and V.D. that might run smoother within the Oculus TV app, provided it's a more straightforward, solid link between the PC and the Go.
Maybe a software update is needed to the PC and mobile versions of the Oculus app to provide this streaming service.

Thanks for your time.

This may not be an issue for the Quest library yet but I would like to see this for the Go library. Although there are some useable filters and categories in place, the filters that appear in the "Browse All" section to me is the most comprehensive and useful. I would like to see that as the default filter engine for all categories. Whether it's new releases, top selling, etc., because sometimes its helpful to further isolate just the game types a user might be looking for, especially the free apps from the pay ones. Maybe someone would like to isolate just the free new releases from the pay ones.

Also, an additional filter I'd like to see in place is isolating the apps/games that are strictly listed as demos and/or trials. It would be a little easier in that regard to find and review listings in the Go's vast library when searching for new titles to play.

Thanks for your time.

From my point of view the main limitation of the Go for games isn't 3 DoF or the limited hardware, but the controller. With only a trigger, a (clickable) touchpad and a back button, games often struggle to offer a good method of control.

Even just adding a shoulder bumper or the like might help in some cases (for example in Pinball FX2), but a second Go controller with a thumb stick should do the trick in adding the right amount of interactivity, achieving most of what a game controller can do and some things it can't (such as separate interaction for both hands).

An ideal second controller would look like the regular Go controller, but offer a thumb stick in place of the touchpad. A plastic bridge that the controllers slide into could help join them into a single controller, for games that may be more comfortable with a classic style game controller.

It's not a trivial challenge to add this, but doesn't seem too complex, either. I'm not a hardware designer, but (looking at a controller teardown) it seems to me that a thumb stick would take some vertical space currently used for the board. If a redesigned board could fit around that, great, but it not, then the controller might have to be a tad bigger. Not a big issue, but would kill symmetry. Then again, if the Go's touchpad controller is modified to add a shoulder bumper, maybe that would return symmetry back.

Another challenge is if we want the second controller to have similar directional tracking as the first (which I think is highly desirable), allowing for two handed games, like Beat Saber, using sword and shield and so on. (Obviously we don't get spatial tracking, but even with its 3 DoF limitation the Go controller has already proved adequate for this kind of control.)

With two different controllers, we can easily assign one to be the left controller and the other to be the right controller. Both user and headset will be easily able to tell which is which, so we could extend the current body model easily, something that won't be trivial if just using two of the same controller.

Then we need to take care of drift. The current method of recentering seems fine to me, and I think can be extended to a second controller. The user would simply hold the two controllers while resetting. I think that most users would be able to adapt to this easily (I tried holding two controllers like this and it felt fine to me), and since the second controller would be optional, apps that don't ask for its use will not require it to be centred, and the OS could even turns it off (which should help battery life).
