ASUS did surprise us when it introduced the Zenbo. The smart little companion is a home robot that functions as a smart home controller, virtual assistant, reminder, or a digital nanny. The Taiwanese tech giant still has a lot in store for the digital and mobile consumers. We’re guessing a VR headset but ASUS didn’t say much about this wearable device.
We just know it’s not a standalone VR headset like the Oculus but more similar to a Samsung Gear VR that needs a Galaxy smartphone. For this ASUS VR headset, obviously it will have to work with the latest ZenFones. There seems to be buttons and a touchpad on this unannounced virtual reality device.
We’re still not sure if the company will be showing off more of the gadget in Taiwan but we’re just delighted to know more OEMs are venturing in this arena. ASUS’ VR headset has a lot of potential. We believe so, because the Zenbo is one cool and cute home robot.
We may only be looking at a prototype so it’s not yet ready to be demoed in front of the many eager Computex goers but we’re hoping at the next biggest consumer tech event which is IFA in September. Let’s just wait and see.
