  —Onix VR starts at $800 and directly challenges PS VR! ——

  In the middle of this month, PS VR was officially shipped. Compared with Vive and Rift in the three major head displays, it was also more popular because of the price close to the people. Recently, a company named Onix tried to challenge the position of PS VR. The high-end VR helmet developed by Onix itself is called Pulsar, which is equipped with an ultra-high resolution screen VR helmet with radian of 4K 120Hz. Pulsar can not only be connected to a PC for a high-performance experience, but also be used wirelessly by users (the basic version of Pulsar helmet needs to be connected to a PC, but users can also choose to buy a higher-end VR helmet for a wireless experience). Peric said that the graphics card supporting 4K display will be launched in 2017, and before that, Onix will have to wait until the relevant graphics card is released before releasing 4K VR glasses. In terms of price, Peric said that the price of the basic version of Pulsar will be 800 to 1000 dollars, but he did not disclose the price of the high-end version. The basic version is so expensive! It seems that the average player is not blessed!

Recently, the second-generation developer version of OSVR, HDK 2, has landed in China, and it was listed in Tmall at a price of 2999 yuan.

In addition, OS VR helps promote hardware sales by sharing content. Including local OS VR content and SteamVR content (HTC Vive content), all content will support the OSVR ecosystem and run on their hardware, giving them the opportunity to enter the market and the already available content base to promote their hardware sales. Razer, which Razer recently announced that it has invested $5 million in content sponsorship fund for OS VR, will take the lead and encourage content developers to support OS VR. HDK 2 is the latest developer’s kit of this open source platform, and its basic parameters are as follows: 2160×1200 (single eye 1080×1200)OLED screen; 90Hz refresh rate; 110-degree field of view; Various peripherals compatible with OS VR and PC-compatible handles; Computer requirements: Core i5-4590 and GTX 970 or above.The OS VR software platform supports the latest Cryengine, Unreal, Unity and other engines and performance enhancement technologies, such as Nvidia’s direct mode.

  One machine for three purposes? Nintendo switch is expected to access the VR head display-

  Samsung Gear VR seems to have given Nintendo a good idea. The head display is relatively cheap, ranging from 60 to 100 dollars, and you need to use a smart phone as a screen. Virtual reality technology experience can be provided by plugging a Samsung mobile phone into the Gear VR headset. Nintendo Switch is likely to adopt a similar scheme. Nintendo may launch a $99 head display, which is equivalent to the retail price of Gear VR and has a similar design. Switch can be placed behind the head display just like a mobile phone is placed in Gear VR. Obviously, the user must take the Joy-Con handle off the game machine. If Nintendo adopts this strategy, virtual reality will have a strong competitor. One advantage of Nintendo is its price. If the Switch costs $300 and the head display costs $99 (the most realistic estimate), Nintendo can throw away its competitors with the cheapest virtual reality solution. In fact, the cost of fully experiencing virtual reality on the Switch is only enough to buy a Playstation VR headset. In terms of function, there is also a description of Nintendo Switch in Nvidia official website, which uses a customized Tegra processor and is equipped with the equivalent performance architecture of the world’s most advanced GeForce game graphics card. Although it is not mentioned whether to use the latest Pascal architecture, the graphics capability of this chip will be very imaginative!
