Is the name 'Cosmos' in reference to the chaos of current traditional VR setups against one that is inside-out and presumably connected via a single VR link cable?

I really like where this is going. The inside-out tracking is something I really hope gets used more as I think it'll be a nicer set-up for what I'd like to do. I've always had half an eye on VR with the intention of one day using it to set up a dedicated sim rig (Racing and Elite Dangerous). I've never had the motivation to jump on the idea though, but I can see that day drawing closer and closer.

Plus the tiny resolution difference between my current 3440x1440 screen (4953600 pixels) and this headset (4896000 pixels) means that if I can maintain the panels 100hz refresh rate in these games it's a good indication that my rig will be up to the task of VR one day. Maybe the next time a serious upgrade option comes around it'll be a VR headset in the shortlist.
