[QUOTE="Admin, post: 56255, member: 1"] A new [URL='https://pdfaiw.uspto.gov/.aiw?PageNum=0&docid=20220187609&IDKey=&HomeUrl=%2F']patent[/URL] that was submitted to the United States Patent and Trademark Office by the Valve Corporation reveals an abstract and blueprints of a [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/valve-stream-deckard-standalone-vr-headset-rumor']rumored[/URL] new virtual reality headset that is similar to the [URL='https://www.ign.com/games/oculus-quest']Meta Quest[/URL] and [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/oculus-quest-2-review']Quest 2[/URL]. The patent was submitted in December of 2021 and was published on June 16, 2022. The 53-page document includes an abstract describing the physical product and images of the headsets' components. The product is not named, but it does have a title of "Head-Mounted Display." The abstract describes the product as having "a front having a display housing and a back having rear housing. A first member extends between the front and the back and is adjustable via an actuation of a first rotatable actuator and a first cabling mechanism. "A second member extends between the front and the back and is adjustable via an actuation of a second rotatable actuator and a second cabling mechanism. A third member extends between the front and back and is adjustable via the actuation of the second rotatable actuator and a third cabling mechanism." As with most patents, the abstract serves as more of a typed-out blueprint than a description of the product itself, but the images could hint at what a potential new VR headset from Valve could look like. In 2019, [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/2019/06/28/valve-index-review']Valve released the Index,[/URL] its most recent VR device. As previously mentioned, rumors have long been swirling that[URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/valve-stream-deckard-standalone-vr-headset-rumor'] the company is working on another device — a standalone headset code-named "Deckard,"[/URL] which would compete with the Meta Quest and Quest 2. As reported by [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/valve-stream-deckard-standalone-vr-headset-rumor']IGN[/URL] in 2021, YouTuber Brad Lynch ([URL='https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1xcV34QaE2icXZ21eSvSSw']SadlyItsBradley[/URL]) found multiple references to a device codenamed "Deckard" inside Valve's SteamVR code. Lynch noted that the information he found indicates multiple iterations of the headset exist, including a "proof of concept" version, which was last updated in June. [URL='https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2021/09/a-new-standalone-valve-vr-headset-teased-by-deep-steamvr-file-dive/?utm_brand=arstechnica&utm_source=twitter&utm_social-type=owned&utm_medium=social']Ars Technica[/URL] had confirmed those details as fact, but only in terms of products that Valve was currently making from within its headquarters, adding that these products do not always get a retail release. As with this patent, it's important to note that this is not a product release confirmation, but it can be inferred that Valve has something in the works. Whether it'll hit store shelves remains to be seen.
