Oculus Rift DK2 or Development Kit 2 is the 2nd version of Oculus Rift Virtual Reality head-mounted display developed by Oculus VR. It was released on July 24, 2014 for 350 dollars. Released a year after DK1, DK2 is the second version of Oculus Rift intended for developers of VR content.

Hardware

DK2's display is a OLED panel with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 (1080p). It has higher resolution, lower persistence, more vibrant colors and less "screen door" effect than DK1's display.

DK2 has an external camera that tracks your position. Within the camera's view, it tracks IR LEDs in the front sides of the headset to capture your position and your movement within the 3D space.
