Valve appears to be developing new VR devices.
As spotted yesterday 10 by Brad Lynch on Twitter, Valve is hiring for the of ‘Software Engineer - Computer Vis꧂ion’ at their headquarters in Washington. “At Valve, we are pushing the boundaries of virtual reality (VR) experiences,” the job description reads, pretty transparently outlining Valve’s ambitions for further VR ventures.&nbs♍p;
Valve added a new job position focused on computer vision for VR hardware“The main scope of this position is to prototype, ship, and support consumer gam🌳ing products leveraging visual-inertial tracking𒁏, camera passthrough, environment understanding, eye and hand tracking” pic.twitter.com/LmAdm9nyrP
The job description goes on to state that Valve is after someone who can help the company achieve “the next steps in VR.” Considering Valve already has several VR devices to its name, including the Oculus Rift and Oculus Quest, it’s anyone’s g🦂uess as to what the “next steps” up from these ✃high-end products could be.
The Software Engineer position is specifically looking for developers who have proven experience in “camera passthrough, environment understanding, eye tracking, and hand tracking.” That’s just in case Valve’s previous name checks 🅰for VR devices weren’t crystal clear enough.
This isn’t the first time we’ve seen Valve hint at an entirely new VR headset. Earlier this year, a patent filing was released by the U.S. government offices, which showed Valv🦩e filed a patent for an entire♌ly new VR headset design. Back in September 2021, claimed Valve was develop💯ing a new VR headset codenamed “Deckard,” which could well be both the device in the patent, as well as the one the new job listing mentions.
