Oculus Rift CV1 Consumer Virtual Reality HUD Sensation Debuts on E3 Press Conference with Latest Hardware Breakthroughs

""The Facebook-owned virtual reality company Oculus today showed off a streamlined version of its gaming headset, Rift, that will be available to consumers in the first quarter of 2016.

Oculus first excited the gaming world three years ago when it launched a Kickstarter campaign to finance the development of its headset. It easily blew past its $250,000 crowdfunding goal and ended up raising $2.4 million. Then in 2014, Facebook acquired the startup for $2 billion, based on CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s belief that virtual reality will represent the next major computing platform.

“Oculus Rift is going to deliver the magic of presence,” Oculus CEO Brendan Iribe said today at a press event in San Francisco. “This isn’t science fiction. This is reality, and it’s happening today.”

Oculus has yet to reveal the cost of Rift, but Iribe said it will be at an “affordable price.” As part of a partnership with Xbox, Oculus Rift will ship with a wireless Xbox One controller and be able to stream Xbox One games.

The company also introduced new handheld sensors called Oculus Touch.

“One of the first things people do [when they put on Rift] is they reach out to this virtual world,” said Oculus founder Palmer Luckey. Touch will be able to recognize hand gestures, such as waving or pointing, and enable people to hold and interact with virtual objects, such as a gun in a shooting game. It will be sold separately and available shortly after Rift launches.

Revealed ahead of the E3 gaming conference in Los Angeles next week, the new headset has been slimmed down and wrapped in fabric so it’s more comfortable for people to hold and wear. The company says it has also improved eye tracking so the experience is less jarring and nauseating for wearers.

“Really, for the first time it feels like a consumer product,” Iribe said. But while Oculus is finally getting ready to ship its first consumer product, it’s still far from achieving Zuckerberg’s vision of becoming a mainstream computing platform. “I think that’s going to realistically take a while,” Iribe tells Quartz. “I do absolutely think that will happen, but it will just take time.""

2.2 Billion Dollar Miniture Sun Project to Make Fusion Reaction Energy Needs a Reality

""Engineers and scientists are constructing a huge mini-star, which will produce the same reactions that happen in the sun to provide energy for the future.

The project, known as Iter, is based in Cadarache, near Aix-en-Provence in southern France. It will weigh three times as much as the Eiffel Tower and be as big as 60 football pitches.

Inside the new building will be a nuclear reactor that scientists hope can provide power through nuclear fusion. In doing so it could generate clean, safe energy and reduce reliance on fossil fuels.

Earlier this year, the team behind the project appointed a new leader, Bernard Bigot.

"We are now entering into manufacturing and preparations for assembly," he said as he joined in March. Bigot said that he had joined as part of a new management team that was set up to deliver “both a research and an industrial facility”.

Inside that facility there will be a smaller and controlled version of the same reactions that happen in our sun, nuclear fusion. That happens when two atomic nuclei collide with each other, releasing energy in the form of photons. The scientists hope to harness that energy and re-use it, to replace the dirty and limited forms of energy that we use today.

The project was launched in an early stage in 1987. It is now being pushed forward by a group of seven entities — including the EU, as well as the US, Russia and China.""

The Push for Synthetic Reality an Agenda to All Things Artificial Intelligence

It is not by accident or organic, ‘grassroots’ trend that numerous films are coming focused on artificial intelligence and the transhumanist takeover. From H.G. Wells’ tales of genetic chimaeras in The Island of Dr. Moreau to Sixth Day with Schwarzenegger, to A.I. films like Chappie, the predictive programming preparations are rolling out.

My recent research has focused on the Manhattan Project, and like the MK ULTRA programs, Manhattan had a much wider application than is commonly known. In fact, MK ULTRA and Manhattan are related through the connect of biometrics and bio-warfare. 

As MK ULTRA faded away, the program was renamed MK SEARCH and transferred to Fort Detrick, one of the U.S. Militarys biological weapons-focused bases. And with both MK SEARCH and Manhattan programs, we find an overarching ideology of transhumanism that has its origins much earlier in the alchemists of the ancient world.

The Manhattan Project was publicly known as the secret operation spanning several years devoted to developing the atomic bomb, yet the truth is much deeper and darker. The Manhattan Project was actually a vast program concerned with radiation, human exposure and the grand telos engineering resistant, synthetic humanoids.

The inklings that we can gather about this overall, long-term project appear to be geared towards biologically engineering humans to withstand the coming onslaught of various alterations in the entire biosphere.

In order to transition to the synthetic overlay that will integrate SmartCities, the Internet of Things, human bio-engineering, cloning, biometrics, genetic programming and environmental engineering is now an open plan in numerous transhumanist lectures and publications. 

Yet in order to reach this phase, experimentation is necessary, and what better means to that end than experimenting on populations en masse.

We have already seen that the technocratic establishment has no qualms about testing on unwitting subjects, so covert experimentation on mass populations is not without precedent — from MK ULTRA to covert chemical spraying. For example, the U.S. government sprayed St. Louis in a radiation experiment under the guise of prepping for a Russian attack.

Official Declassified Documents: Poisonous Chemtrails Were Sprayed Onto the US Population

That this particular experiment (among numerous) involved radiation was no coincidence. The 20th Century appears to have been the ‘radiation century’, suggesting the hypothesis by researchers like Sofia Smallstorm to be correct (please see the video From Chemtrails to Pseudo-Life at the bottom of this article). 

Smallstorm argues the goal of the 20th century’s experiments was to overwrite the existing biospherewith a new, synthetic overlay, or humanity 2.0. Humanity Plus, the new homo evolutis, would be an androgynous being capable of technocratic control beneath the All-Seeing Eye of panoptic surveillance. 

Children will be grown in test tubes, according to the Brave New World plans of Huxley, and sex would become meaningless. Offspring allowed to subsist will be genderless automatons, made for slave-like subjugation and toil. Wells described this in his Time Machine, with the Morlocks and Eloi.

From Bertrand Russell to Dr. Edward Teller, the plan that is blossoming in our day is showing itself to be a unified plan that spans the last century in particular, as the century of the ‘final revolution’ (in Russell’s words), where scientific process would reveal the secrets to technological imperialism. 

Russell was a proponent of both “scientific society” and a “single supreme world government”, while Teller himself was not only a key figure in the development of the hydrogen bomb and the Manhattan Project, but also the father of aerosol spraying and atmospheric geoengineering. [learn more here]

This period is thus concurrent with the alchemical atomic and nuclear tests done igniting bombs in the atmosphere, beginning at the Trinity Site in New Mexico.

Singing Stars May Be a Reality in the Universe

Scientists may have discovered the "sound" of stars by observing fluid in motion.

""A team of researchers observed the reaction of an ultra-intense laser with a plasma target, theUniversity of York reported. They noticed that a trillionth of a second after the laser strikes, plasma flowed from regions of high density to those of lower density. This event caused plasma to build up at the interface between high and low density areas, generating a sound wave.

The sound was of a frequency of more than a trillion hertz, which is six million times higher than what can be heard by any mammal.

"One of the few locations in nature where we believe this effect would occur is at the surface of stars. When they are accumulating new material stars could generate sound in a very similar manner to that which we observed in the laboratory - so the stars might be singing - but, since sound cannot propagate through the vacuum of space, no-one can hear them," said John Pasley, of the York Plasma Institute in the Department of Physics at York.

The technique used to observe this sound wave works similarly to a police speeding camera, allowing the researchers to analyze how the fluid moved when struck by the laser on a timescale of less than a trillionth of a second.

"It was initially hard to determine the origin of the acoustic signals, but our model produced results that compared [favorably] with the wavelength shifts observed in the experiment. This showed that we had discovered a new way of generating sound from fluid flows. Similar situations could occur in plasma flowing around stars," said Alex Robinson from the Plasma Physics Group at STFC's Central Laser Facility.""
