PlayStation VR works with other consoles

PlayStation VR works with other consoles The PlayStation VR doesn't just work with the PlayStation 4. As it turns  out, the virtual reality headset can actually accept any valid HDMI input, albeit without the full virtual reality experience. When the PlayStation VR is connected to a regular HDMI output, such as an Xbox One, the headset displays content in a 'cinema mode.' In this mode, a large 2D screen covers most of your field of view, as if a cinema screen was positioned a meter or so from your face. Move your head and the screen stays in place. The fact that the PSVR can accept inputs from any HDMI source gives it a leg up on its headset competitors, the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift. Both of these headsets are designed for PC games, and support non-VR content from a PC in a cinematic mode similar to the PSVR, however neither headset works with standard HDMI sources from a console or other device. This extra functionality built in to the PSVR could make it a decent portab...

Camfed wields numbers to evaluate educational hurdles, pull in partners, and maximize its success.

T-Mobile's Digits feature launches next week, lets you use your phone number on multiple devices

Image
T-Mobile phone numbers can be accessed from apps on Android, iOS, and the Web.   T-Mobile has  announced  it plans to officially launch its "Digits" program on May 31 after a successful beta that began late last year. The service combines features of services like Google Voice and AT&T NumberSync into a single product, by allowing customers to use their number on multiple devices, as well as creating additional numbers that can be shared between family members or used as a burner line. Digits works through the web as well as standalone iOS and Android apps, though recent Samsung phones and the LG G5 have native integration for Digits in their existing dialers. You make and receive calls as well as send and receive text messages on all connected devices, and much like Google Voice, it’s possible to customize which devices should ring whenever there’s an incoming call. All T-Mobile phone numbers will automatically become Digits and cus...
