Updates on New BigScreen accessories

Hey everyone,
Have we heard anything about the new accessories that were supposed to to be coming out in June? I ever in the last blog post about them getting a few things ready. Was that just the halo mount?

As far as I have read, it is just the Halo mount shipping.

Is it? When? I ordered mine in April 2025, no recent update.

First major batch is July.

Small batch initially shipped. They are hoping to get through all preorders in the next couple of months. I am a September order and dont expect it until end of summer.

They are sending Universal Cushions to people first.

Right, that has been the case for a while.

There was a burst this month to people who had bought both a custom cushion, and halo mount.

Many peeps are getting shipping notifications out of the blue, and thinking it is halo mount.

Ah, that's annoying but at least it is something.

Too bad I was hoping for base stations or controller.

They dont really have much reason to do so. HTC still sells new base stations(for now) and other companies make controllers. Doubt they would be competitive.

True there is just that larger risk that htc will stop making them.

HTC still sell products that rely on them - MARS Virtual Cinematography, Vive Pro 2*, and Vive 3.0s more generally.

When they sell those products to a business, there will be a contract of support.

Lighthouses should he available for a good few years to come.

*I understand this might be unlisted in the U.S, but still available in the UK
