The Oculus Rift VR headset received nearly $2,500,000 in 2012 on their Kickstarter campaign leading the modern virtual reality revolution. Sony, Microsoft, Samsung, HTC, and Google have followed with their own devices since, even expanding into mobile phones, and new varieties are coming out by the week.
