Virtual reality is one of the hottest concepts in 2016. The rise of VR can be said to be the result of the interaction between the development of the Internet technology industry chain and the increasing entertainment needs of people. Opportunities have arrived, hardware manufacturers have already made efforts in advance, entrepreneurs have come to the fore, the world's mainstream Internet companies have begun to layout in the VR, for the world-class companies, the layout of VR has far-reaching significance, which not only means a With the rise of the industry, big companies are thinking more about how to bring upgrades to other industries through VR technology and bring about changes in people's lives.
The Speedway Academy analyst team analyzes the current 14 popular VR glasses on the market from hardware parameters, content quantity, price, impact and significance to the market, and analyzes every analyst from the perspective of consumers. The product's recommendation is weighted to get the VR eyewear recommendation ranking.
Google Cardboard can be said to be the ultimate in virtual reality glasses. A simple paper box realizes the basic functions of the VR glasses, and it can be said that there is a loud slap in the market for some single-function VR glasses products. Although comfort is greatly reduced, it is undeniable that Google Cardboard is the most cost-effective and cheapest VR device available on the market today. It costs as little as 15 dollars to get it into pocket.
Sony PlayStation VR is currently another heavyweight VR product. In addition to its lightweight design, the refresh rate of 120Hz has surpassed the HTC vive to become the highest in the market, although the viewing angle of 100 degrees is slightly insufficient, and the binocular merges. The resolution is 1920x1080. In addition, with the solid game base laid by PS4, PS VR does not lack game content. The price of a set of games including headphones, controllers, PS Camera, and gift sets is only around RMB 3,200. But one thing to note is that the PS VR needs to connect to the PS4 host to assist with some details.
HTC Vive is not so much a VR eyewear, more precisely a game based on virtual reality. It is understood that in many VR glasses, HTC vive binocular combined resolution of 2160x1200, 2K resolution greatly reduced the grainy picture, the actual experience to achieve a true "zero dizziness", and there are matching handles and other ancillary equipment. And because this product is jointly released with well-known game development company Valve, the controller positioning system Lighthouse uses Valve's patent. Instead of relying on cameras, it uses lasers and light sensors to determine the position of moving objects. Content, especially game content, has no worries. Of course, such a high-quality product offers a lot of money, the price of 5200 yuan set can not help but a tight pocket.
The Razer OSVR is actually a new head-mounted product platform launched by Razer. Its first product is the Hacker Dev Kit. Although the sample is currently worn, the effect is very general, but it has a strong compatibility. Not only is the Oculus Rift second-generation development kit compatible, but any experimental virtual reality software for Linux and Android is also compatible. As OSVR has made its own way to open-source software and hardware, we believe that it will gain certain advantages in the future. And this $200 VR device is also cheap in its class.
The Oculus Rift's screen resolution and refresh rate are comparable to those of the HTC Vive. It is also a 2160x1200 binocular merging resolution and a 90Hz refresh rate. Although there are compatible somatosensory controllers but need to be purchased separately, the included Xbox-only gamepad requires 8G RAM to be the highest in the line for the PC, and Constellation tracking technology for somatosensory tracking. There is still a slight lack of content and I look forward to more quality masterpieces that can be supported. The scheduled price is approximately RMB 3,900.
AMD Sulon Q is a VR device jointly developed by AMD and Sulon. This is a completely independent device that can not only achieve VR function but also have AR function. The binocular resolution is up to 2560x1440, 110 pairs of viewing angles, equipped with AMD FX-88 processor, 8G RAM and 256G SSD external memory. With Sulon's advanced spatial computing unit, players' movements and gestures can be tracked in real time. It also allows Windows windows to be displayed semi-transparently in their environment. Because it is an all-in-one machine, it may be a little discounted in terms of weight and comfort, but it is full of expectation only from the configuration.
Meizu style VR is Meizu and domestic VR manufacturers to promote the introduction of science and technology cooperation, and the difference between similar domestic-made VR glasses, the reason is that its frame also uses a green cardboard material, weighs only 102 grams. Depth-VR comes with an independent SDK that provides users with the content, and comes with a gravity module, image anti-distortion calibration and other functions. And the price is only 59 yuan, a new low for mobile VR glasses.
Storm mirror can be understood as a mobile phone peripheral, through the special magic mirror application developed by Storm Video, you can achieve VR effect through mobile phone. Some products can adjust the focal length, while also equipped with a Bluetooth handle, and the phone can be connected to achieve control of the phone screen. Compared to the bland hardware, STORM has a “gene†advantage in terms of content. It is understood that the exclusive application platform for Storm Mirror includes 70 games and 18,000 video resources, including more than 300 panoramic videos. game. The market price of 199 yuan seems to be more cost-effective.
Ling Jing Xiao Bai is an immersive VR eyewear that adapts to the mobile phone. The viewing angle of 90 degrees is slightly narrow. It is equipped with a Bluetooth handle that can assist in operation, and software such as Ling Jing World and Ling Jing Cinema helps push content. And can adjust the interpupillary distance and object distance. Is a more basic VR glasses, priced at 199.2 yuan more than the storm mirror.
Samsung Gear VR is a mobile-oriented VR device co-produced with Oculus, mainly through the social features of Oculus Social. The mobile phone also mainly supports Samsung Note 4, S6, etc., and displays the VR content through the front-end mobile phone, and the content of the experience result is not very clear. Can help play some VR games, watching VR video and 3D video. The good point is that Samsung itself can provide some content support, but the price of nearly 99 US dollars is indeed a bit puzzling.
Levision Super Helmet is another VR device that comes with a mobile display. The highlight of this app is myopic mediation and focal length mediation, which will allow everyone to experience more clearly in the naked eye. VR scenario, but the resolution is flawed. Insufficiency is also obvious. The mediation between the two sides is not independent. People with large differences in myopic eyes still can't see clearly; they do not have their own batteries, and they need to connect with LeTV as a mobile phone. The line is still firmly tied to death. 1999 yuan to take home this "wearable cinema" has yet to be considered.
The difference between the LG 360 VR's upcoming VR glasses and conventional mobile VR glasses is that it comes with a display and connects to a mobile phone to achieve a VR experience. The resolution is only 960x720, mainly for viewing panoramic video and digital 3D movies. However, the LG 360 VR must be connected to the G5 to use. It is rumored that the $199.99 price of this device is slightly lower than that of the LeEth Super Helmet, but it is still not necessary.
The weight of the 3Glasses D2 is relatively light compared to similar VR glasses, with a resolution of 1920x1080, and a viewing range of 125 degrees, which is higher than the 110 degree viewing angle of similar VR glasses, but only a refresh rate of 60Hz may cause some wear Head discomfort, head discomfort, head tracking sensors are Gyroscope, Aceleromter, Magnetometer, but there is no tracking camera, which has a great impact on the visual experience when used. So if you intend to start a relatively high-end VR device, this 1999 yuan does not need to spend.
Da Peng M2 is a big friend company combined with Samsung, ARM jointly launched a one machine, 75Hz refresh rate is still relatively low, 96 degree field of view angle is also a bit narrow, although equipped with Samsung Exynos 7420 processor, and ARM and VR collaborates on a lot of rendering optimizations for Mali GPUs. However, 3G running memory and 32G memory are not really enough. The only thing that can be said is that it cooperates with domestic game and video manufacturers to make up for the lack of content. However, the price of the all-in-one machine is 2,999 yuan, which is still not recommended.
In addition, there are companies like X-Rover, which specializes in game guns. They mainly provide hardware support for games. Such a game gun can be simply understood as attaching an ordinary gamepad function to a gun model, and then having some experience upgrades. As we all know, in addition to real-world experiences such as racing, haunted houses, and other real-world VR games, most of the players involved in the VR game are inevitably part of the shooting, which to a certain extent brought a market for game guns. However, even if it is not a VR game, it can be used on ordinary PCs and X-Boxes, but the price is inevitably prohibitive for ordinary gamers who are not game enthusiasts.
Of course, there are large-scale VR experience devices similar to those produced by companies such as Corun Technology, St. Witt, and Yingmo. The prices of these devices are mostly 100,000 yuan, and more are products at the B level. They are VR experience halls. Exhibition halls and other places provide solutions for virtual reality experiences. Among them, Coolui Technology currently has two racing and aircraft experience products. St. Whitney mainly has a haunted house and a shooting game. The player's participation and playability are even higher. The biggest highlight of Yingying Technology is its position capture, which allows players to move within a certain area.
There are also vendors that focus on VR content, such as VR hits and 3D Box. However, due to giants such as Baidu who have already targeted VR content market, although content can be provided and distributed, it is still hoped that Baidu will try to compete with Baidu. Hey.
Li Guoqi, a senior analyst at the Institute of Speed ​​Research, believes that despite the fact that many domestic manufacturers are targeting the VR market, it is clear that the domestic VR products are far from the products of several major foreign brands, and they are even suspect. The only advantage lies in the amount of content, but the content quality is really not flattered. The good point is that VR is at a preliminary stage of development, and it is always better to toss it. The areas where VR can be applied in the future will be greatly expanded. In addition to entertainment, political, military, medical, scientific research, education, corporate office, and many other areas will have VR has its place, so the ecological layout of the VR market, regardless of quality, is always good.
