ASUS and Gigabyte are making their own virtual reality headsets

ASUS has been fairly successful in its attempts to become less reliant on its PC business with its recent smartphones, but it doesn’t want its diversification efforts to be limited to just the mobile market. We already know that the company is working with Microsoft to create its own version of the HoloLens augmented reality headset, but a recent rumor out of Taiwan claims ASUS is also working on its own virtual reality headset, which should launch sometime in the first half of next year. The same source of that rumor claims that Gigabyte is working on its own headset as well.
