Portable Oculus Setup

The Portable Oculus Setup is an early experiment with the Oculus Rift. A home made cord the Oculus Rift takes the power from external batteries or the computer and the special computer harness places the computer conveniently as a backpack.

Feeding the real time camera input from a webcam placed in odd places on the body into the oculus forces a different relationship between movement and seeing.

The Oculus setup creates what we call an oculus creature. Although the Oculus Creature often loses it is ready to play almost anything! You might call the Oculus Creature a very playful fellow.
