At the ongoing Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2019, HTC launched a new version of its Vive Pro VR headset. The new model comes with unique eye-tracking technology allowing users to navigate within the VR apps by just looking. This essentially means one can choose an option or move from section of an app to another by just gazing, instead of using physical buttons. Called HTC Vive Pro Eye, the new VR headset will release in April this year. Major League Baseball (MLB) launched an eye tracking on Vive Pro Eye at the CES 2019. "Eye tracking is integrated into the "MLB Home Run Derby VR" video game experience, allowing users full menu control without a traditional controller. Fans can experience the new Vive Pro Eye starting in 2019," said the company in a release. Also read click here. Vive Cosmos HTC is also trying to compete with a growing market of affordable VR headsets, currently dominated by the likes of Facebook-owned Oculus. Aimed at mass users, Vive Cosmos is a new premium PC VR system. The company claims the headset can deliver "real RGB" colours with minimal screen door effect. In terms of hardware, HTC Vive Cosmos comes with flip-up design, new crown design with better padding, and light weight. HTC Vive Cosmos will hit the market later this year. The developer kits of Vive Cosmos will be available in early 2019.
