Respected and longstanding tech news media network TWiT.tv (This Week in Tech) has kept a watchful eye on virtual reality’s growth over the years and tomorrow will live stream coverage of Oculus CEO Brendan Iribe’s opening keynote address at the company’s second developer conference, ‘Connect’. Road to VR Executive Editor Ben Lang will be joining the TWiT team on the TWiT Live Specials broadcast to give you in-depth commentary throughout the live-streamed event.

Despite Oculus founder Palmer Luckey’s best efforts to quell rumours and regulate expectations, hopes are high for some significant and exciting developments from Brendan Iribe’s keynote address at the company’s 2nd developer conference tomorrow.

We know for sure that positional tracking for mobile VR headset Gear VR is bust (for now) and that the company won’t be starting pre-orders for Oculus’ first consumer VR headset, the Rift, thanks to Luckey’s clarifications. However, his assertions that “We will be announcing and co-announcing some really cool stuff,” has kept hopes for interesting, significant news high.

His obsession with graphical fidelity over the years has had him branded a ‘graphics whore’ (which he views as the highest compliment) more than once and he holds a particular candle for the dream of the ultimate immersive gaming experience. Having followed and been disappointed by the original VR explosion of the 90s, he then founded RiftVR.com to follow the new and exciting prospect of the rebirth of VR in products like the Oculus Rift. Paul joined forces with Ben to help build the new Road to VR in preparation for what he sees as VR’s coming of age over the next few years.
