The Android/iOS app is much like last year’s Oculus Connect app, and let’s you register and reserve your personal 30 min window with the Crescent Bay, a prototype VR headset that adds “360 degree head tracking, expanded positional tracking volume, dramatically improved weight and ergonomics, and high-quality integrated audio,” with a rumored 1440 display.

Reservations are advertised for January 6-10th and many places are still available. Oculus will also be accepting walk-ups throughout CES at their booth, but we’d expect quite a line of hopefuls waiting to get their chance at trying on the prototype headset.
