SAN JOSE, Calif.—I wasn't really expecting too much hard news from my trip to Oculus Connect this year. Instead, I was expecting one more pre-launch opportunity to try out the compelling Oculus Touch controllers and a chance to chat with the developers big and small who have dived head first into the still small virtual reality space.
The many keynote announcements and wide array of new software on display left a palpable buzz among the few-thousand attendees at the conference, almost all of whom were developers or true believers in the virtual reality future. Virtual reality might not be part of the computing mainstream yet, but walking around Oculus Connect, it was easy to believe that it could be in the not-too-distant future.
