Michael Abrash, a programmer, former id Software employee, and ex-Valve developer, has joined Oculus as its chief scientist, where he will once again work alongside John Carmack.
In a blog post on the Oculus website, Abrash shared his thoughts on the future of VR and Oculus following the Facebook buyout earlier this week.
"We're on the cusp of what I think is not The Next Big Platform, but rather simply The Final Platform – the platform to end all platforms – and the path here has been so improbable that I can only shake my head," Abrash wrote. He continued, "A lot of what it will take to make VR great is well understood at this point, so it's engineering, not research; hard engineering, to be sure, but clearly within reach. For example, there are half a dozen things that could be done to display panels that would make them better for VR, none of them pie in the sky."
