Google’s VR ambitions go way beyond the recently-announced Daydream View headset, according to a report on Monday. Engadget sources say Mountain View is working on a high-end mixed reality headset that would not require a smartphone like Daydream, or a computer like the Oculus Rift. Those familiar with the matter say the visor would feature eye tracking technologies and sensors to ‘map out the real world space in front of the user’ to provide positional awareness. This will be aided by AI chips provided by a company called Movidius, which is currently in the process of being purchased by Intel.
