VR was first proposed in the 1960s and is short for Virtual Reality. The core is to create virtual reality, let people participate, create immersion, and achieve a sense of entering other time and space.
From the end of 2015 to the present, VR equipment has always been the focus of investment, media, exhibitions, technology forums and so on. According to the famous research and analysis company Digi-Capital, the market potential of VR/AR hardware and software will reach 150 billion US dollars. It is expected that the compound growth rate will exceed 100% in the next 5 years, and 2016 has become the first year of VR.
At the 2016 Asia Consumer Electronics Show, where many VR devices are getting together, “clear, not dizzy, lighter than Oculus! Clearer than Gear VR, really clear!†These are the evaluations of the experience of the 4K VR. The small 4K VR also stood out with its core technology of direct user pain points, and won the Best VR Equipment Award at the 2016 Asia Consumer Electronics Show.
Speaking of the award, the founder and CEO of Xiaopai Technology, Weng Zhibin and the team members felt that it was an unexpected surprise. Talking about the birth of the small 4K VR is more like a matter of course. Xiaopai Technology is one of the early companies engaged in R&D in the VR industry. When it first contacted VR four years ago, it was working with a foreign medical team to make a medical-grade VR helmet. At that time, the team's main creation was attracted by the VR cool effect, but Did not want to build a consumer-grade VR helmet.
Until Facebook announced the acquisition of Oculus for $2 billion, they saw VR's vast market and application prospects in China, so in May 2014, it began the design and development of consumer VR, the small 4K VR. This transformation is inseparable from the rich research and development experience of founder Weng Zhibin for 15 years.
Hardware technology standards for true VR devices
Weng Zhibin, founder and CEO of Xiaopai Technology, believes that VR peers should respect the three technical standards of the VR industry. The gyroscope, the angle of view above 90° and the delay control within 20ms can be called real VR devices.
Gyro: The VR device must have a gyroscope. VR devices require a sufficiently accurate method to determine the speed, angle and distance of head rotation, which can be achieved using inertial gyroscopes (reactive but poor precision) or optical methods.
Total delay: the total delay of the MTP (MoTIon-to-photons latency, the sum of the delays generated in a period from head movement to seeing a new image on the screen), by motion input, sensor, graphics card The engine, display transmission, screen time and new image are composed of several factors. In theory, the delay control is not visible to the naked eye within 19.3 ms. According to statistics, at present, only a few manufacturers with core technologies can control the delay to 20ms.
Field of view: The horizontal field of view in the relaxed state of the human eye is about 120 degrees. The larger the field of view of the device, the better the immersion. 95° is already the minimum of the VR field of view. A device with an angle of view of less than 90° may cause splicing of the field of view and the external environment because it is smaller than the normal market angle of the human eye, which seriously affects the immersion.
Weng Zhibin particularly stressed that more technical standards are more conducive to promoting the healthy development of VR equipment in China. The small school reiterated the three major hardware technical standards of "gyro + field of view > 90 degrees + total delay < 20 seconds.
The small 4K VR field of view achieves 110°, 58-71mm pitch adaptation and 0-500° myopia adaptation. It is equipped with a large-diameter double aspherical lens with a diameter of 53mm, which fully meets the user's immersive experience requirements from the hardware level. For the vertigo that is still difficult to bypass for most VR devices, the small 4K is solved by configuring the dual gyroscope and controlling the delay rate to 18ms.
VR equipment wearing comfort is especially critical
The small 4K VR hardware has 5 world firsts and multiple patents, with core hardware technology as the basis. The small 4K VR is also unequivocal in terms of wearing comfort design.
4K: The world's first VR device with a resolution of 4K. The small 4K significantly improved the problem of heavy grain and the picture was more delicate. Regardless of whether the content reaches 4K, it can output a 4k display effect, and the graphics card used is lower than the Oculus requirement.
The lightest: The small 4K VR is the lightest in the industry. Its center of gravity is also designed to the front position, on the basis of the use of medical grade sponge, wearing a heavy weight on the head, increasing the sense of wearing a fit.
Eye protection system: The small 4K VR also adopts a global exclusive design on the eye protection system to fully ensure the user's comfort.
VR content support and equipment popularization complement each other
Tang Jianhong, co-founder of Xiaopai Technology, believes that the pros and cons of content directly affects the penetration rate of VR. The small 4K has its own game platform "Small Player Play", currently has more than 100 games and 300 VR videos, and is compatible with Steam's VR game platform. Future small parties will work with more premium content providers.
Tang Jianhong, co-founder of Xiaopai Technology, said that in addition to entertainment functions, the small 4K can also be used in medical and educational fields, such as doctor training. Tang Jianhong said that in the future, based on core R&D technology, it will continue to focus on the two areas of “hardware + content†to promote the continuous improvement of products and bring the best virtual reality experience to users.
Also talk about the entrepreneurial environment in the VR field.
Thanks to China's excellent industrial chain support, the performance of the small 4K VR is extremely high. In the case of HTC Vive and Oculus with insufficient capacity and high selling prices, the small 4K VR is the best choice.
However, it has to be acknowledged that there are differences in the entrepreneurial environment in the VR field at home and abroad. Weng Zhibin believes that in foreign countries, VR technology has a certain time accumulation and inheritance, and the domestic VR field is more like a leap-forward development. However, with more talents joining the VR industry and domestic support for “double innovationâ€, the VR ecosystem is more perfect, I believe there will be more outstanding VR equipment.
For those who want to join the VR field, the co-founder Tang Jianhong also shared a few points of his own. "Catch the rhythm of the development of things, especially new things. You can't look at the development of new things with old thinking. There is a certain market acumen and always put users first."
VR is destined to be a new dream industry in the future. The initial imperfection is a necessary process. Need to go through the process of survival of the fittest, but also consumers and industry to care for the opened environment. Tang Jianhong believes that when VR applications actually change people's production and living efficiency and methods, it is really hot, but it is undeniable that any industry has experienced brutal growth in the early stages of development. Entrepreneurs should focus more on practical product development. In the future, VR will definitely give ordinary consumers an experience to expand the new world.
