And the technology is... Oculus Rift v2 with depth of focus adjustment

It looks like the technology is going to be something to do with this patent application, which was published on 9 October 2014 (US equivalent published a week later): WO2014/164901

Title: "SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUGMENTED AND VIRTUAL REALITY"

Claim 1: A user display device, comprising:

a housing frame mountable on a head of a user;

a first pair of cameras coupled to the housing frame to track a movement of the user's eyes and to estimate a depth of focus based on the tracked eye movements; a projection module having a light generating mechanism to generate and modify, based on the estimated depth of focus, a projected light associated with a display object such that the display object appears to be in focus;

a lens mounted on the housing frame; and

a processor communicatively coupled to the projection module to communicate data associated with the display image to the projection module.

Also, this one: WO2012/154620, titled: "MASSIVE SIMULTANEOUS REMOTE DIGITAL PRESENCE WORLD"
