Oculus Rift Dev Kit 2 Teardown @ iFixIt

When Facebook's acquisition of Oculus went public there was a rather fierce uproar over the whole thing.  That has all since simmered down as the collective internet has since found something new to decry and rally against a week later.

Now, to assuage any lingering fears that Facebook was using any of its other intellectual properties for nefarious emotional conditioning experiments, the kind folks over at iFixIt have torn apart the latest Oculus Rift development kit to make sure.  Long answer short, it's perfectly safe - but you may be surprised at what they did find inside.

Oculus VR took the world by surprise last year with the Oculus Rift. This year, they seek to push their own self-created envelope with the Oculus Rift Development Kit 2. We may not have flying cars, hoverboards or (commercial) teleporters, but we do have the latest virtual reality tech. Join us as we ogle the wizardry in the Oculus Rift DK2, teardown style.
