Palmer Luckey is a self-described virtual reality enthusiast and former engineer at the USC’s Institute for Creative Technologies (ICT). Now his company Oculus is bringing, thanks to a huge show of support on crowdfunding website Kickstarter, what looks to be the world’s first viable gaming-focused virtual reality headset to market: Oculus Rift. Ahead of his keynote address at Evolve in London, we spoke to Luckey about his potentially revolutionary technology, why the time is finally right for VR and why indie mentality allowed him to innovate more than bigger companies.
