AMD shows off wireless all-in-one VR headset

There’s a new virtual reality headset on the block that looks to address two of the key problems with most VR headsets.

The AMD Sulon Q is an all-in-one solution that is not only wire-free, but also does not require users to plus it into a PC or console. There’s also no need for external tracking units.
