McCauley’s work would help to develop USB drivers, kernel mode drivers, the first scrolling feature for a computer mouse, and the Guitar Hero controller, which made gaming both more tactile and accessible. Then there is his work on the Oculus Rift Dev Kits I and II, before the VR headset company was sold to Facebook US$2.3 billion in cash and stock, in March 2014.

In this episode we talk about hardware, education and the early Oculus kickstarter campaign, which probably remains the most famous crowd-funding campaign in internet history.
