__TOC__
==Introduction==
The '''Oculus Rift''' - also known as '''Oculus Rift CV1''' or simply as '''Rift''' - is the first version of the [[Oculus Rift (Platform)|Oculus Rift]] [[Virtual Reality]] head-mounted display [[HMD]] built for consumers. The Oculus Rift was released on March 28, 2016. <ref name=”one”>Greenwald, W. (2017). Oculus Rift. Retrieved from https://www.pcmag.com/review/343413/oculus-rift</ref> Unlike its predecessors, [[DK1]] and [[DK2]] (Development Kits), the Rift's target demographic moves beyond developers and serious [[virtual reality]] (VR) enthusiasts to include people with only casual interest in VR..
The Oculus Rift was the result of four years of research that started on Kickstarter. At the time, the project raised $2 million from supporters before being purchased by Facebook. The commercial version of the HMD marks and improvement over the previous developments kits, being easier to setup and requiring less technical know-how to install games and troubleshoot when problems appear. <ref name=”two”>Pino, N.
