| [* black] A soft rubber gasket cushions the display against the lens assembly, and seals dust out of the clean-room optics chamber. | |
| [* black] The lenses are glued in place in their frame, but with a bit of encouragement (e.g. some heat and a good push) they pop right out. | |
| - | [* black] These are conventional lenses, with no Fresnel stepping and a smooth dome shape. That means the lenses are quite a bit thicker than the Fresnel lenses in the [guide|62213|Vive|stepid=130846|new_window=true] and the hybrid Fresnel lenses of the [guide|60612|Rift|stepid=126752|new_window=true]. |
| + | [* black] These are 14 mm thick conventional lenses, with no Fresnel stepping, and a smooth dome shape. That means the lenses are quite a bit thicker than the Fresnel lenses in the [guide|62213|Vive|stepid=130846|new_window=true] and the hybrid Fresnel lenses of the [guide|60612|Rift|stepid=126752|new_window=true]. |
| [* icon_note] While Oculus and HTC chose to shave off some weight with thinner lenses, these coke bottle lenses should scatter less light from the display, and provide a more cohesive image than the optics in the Vive or Rift. Fresnel lenses tend to create optical discontinuities between their steps that can break the image up into chunks. |
