What else would you call it? The official announcement of it calls it a headset.
"vr-goggles" doesn't sound that great either. on the other hand, alphabet could have "google goggles"
These aren't HMDs, if that's what you're thinking. They're fully integrated systems.
I've taken to calling them "VR Helmets" after reading a page on rutracker passed through google translate. Sounds just stupid and wrong enough to entertain me.
What else? Goggles perhaps? That sounds more grandpa to me than headset.
Sorry. What do you call them?
I believe the young kids are calling them Virtual Visions Visors.
