It's day two of the 28 23 consumer electronics show known as C S taking place in Vegas.
And today we're going back to the events roots focusing on personal electronics
and gadgets that can change the way the humans live and interact.
Cheddar news,
senior reporter Michelle Castillo is on the ground in
Las Vegas for us taking in the latest technology.
Michelle is great to see you and what is the latest from CS?
So we're here at Sony's Booth right now and probably one
of the hottest items that's gonna drop on February 22nd.
We got a sneak peek. It is the VR to Playstation headset.
Now,
this starts retailing at $549 and promises to be one of the
most immersive gaming experiences that you've ever seen before in your life.
Now,
you might be a little curious about what that
actually means that includes three D have to accept
which makes you feel like everything around you.
You can totally experience even things running above your head or around.
We actually have someone demoing the game right now and you
might be able to take a look at what she's seeing exactly
about to pop up soon.
Now,
let me tell you a little bit more about this headset in
this experience where this is going to be the first title game.
It's called Horizon VR, Call of the Mountain.
And what it is is a kind of a river adventure where you're traveling if you take a look
right now through this space and it really does
feel like you're immersed in that space right now.
So
it's pretty crazy when the demo starts,
we're going to get back and show you a little bit more.
But yeah,
gaming is the future and probably one of the
ways that most people will enter the metaverse.
It's really cool. So let's talk more about gaming in the Metaverse. Michelle.
Obviously, they go hand in hand.
What new innovations have you seen in this space so far?
Well, you know,
it's really about immersive experiences and I
think that's what we're really embracing.
There's a vest called oo and it really makes you feel haptic touch,
even though you are talking in a digital space,
you'll actually feel the actual experience near you.
Now,
there's also gloves that will actually let you feel
the pierce of a knife in your hand.
I don't know anybody who really wants that, but it really does again,
bring you into that universe.
So that whole thing of the immersive experience, it's all coming to real life.
Yeah,
I don't think I'd want to feel that either person Michelle
but obviously immersive is the name of the game here.
And
I know one of the buzziest headsets this year, of course, is this new meta quest pro
Do you think it really is powerful enough to revolutionize the future of work?
You know,
I didn't get to try it out a little bit and I do see how
this could be more a practical application for people who might not be into gaming.
So what it is is mixed reality.
So you can actually see the real world and also the metaverse around you.
So that allows people like architects
to collaborate on projects across different,
you know, different locations.
One program, Archeo is that so About 20 people into that program at the same time.
And you can work on a 3D model in the
metaverse while collaborating with people in the real world.
So this is something that I think is a better use case
for a lot of people who are looking at the enterprise space.
And I think that's something you're going to
see more in your workplace of the future.
It is interesting, what are the practical uses
of companies shown for the metaverse?
You know,
I think what we're also seeing is that one product called Endeavor is all about uh
working with people in nursing homes and they
really are helping combat loneliness through shared experiences.
But real quick before we go, we did get the demo working. The beauty of live TV.
This is what you actually will see inside the playstation V R two,
which is again out on February 22nd,
5 49 retail. One of the buzziest items here at C E S.
People are really excited for this one.
All right, Michelle Castillo Leo doing the coolest stuff for us in Las Vegas,
Michelle. Thank you so much. We'll be seeing Michelle Moore from CS.
