TPCast maintains their solution can transmit up 5 meters away at 2k (2160×1200) with a latency of less than 2ms. TPCast maintains their “Wireless Adapter for Oculus Rift” is slated to arrive “by the end of Q4 2017.” image courtesy TPCAST.
Now that it’s all said and done it’s easy to see that E3 2017 just wasn’t a huge showing for VR hardware. Microsoft didn’t even mention VR at all during the reveal of the Xbox One X even though executives have suggested the system will still support it. Best VR Hardware of E3 2017: DisplayLink Wireless Vive.
Augmented Reality has played a huge role at the developer conferences for Microsoft, Apple, Facebook, and Google, which is a great sign that the industry is moving towards spatially-aware computing. Microsoft is the only company to start with head-mounted AR with the HoloLens while the other three companies are starting with phone-based AR.
Today’s most immersive virtual reality systems, like the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive, rely on a bothersome tether to send power and high fidelity imagery to the headset at low latency. This translates to zero perceived latency by the player, preserving user comfort due to the elimination of motion sickness that latency causes in VR play.
Nvidia has GeForce Now, Sony has PlayStation Now, and both Google & Microsoft have their own future cloud gaming projects in the work too. and Intel, was delivering a total latency between 4 – 6 ms through their mock-up 5G network. Cloud gaming isn’t a new concept, at least in the world of traditional flatscreen games.
Microsoft is taking a holistic approach with Windows Mixed Reality being baked into Windows 10, meaning that developers can create a single application that can run on the HoloLens, on one of their partner VR headsets, on a Surface tablet, or as a desktop app. LISTEN TO THE VOICES OF VR PODCAST.
Manifest was launched in 2017 as essentially an on-screen to-do list. They were also named Microsoft Partners of the Year in 2020 and received funding through Magic Leap’s Independent Creator Program in 2019. These military projects are also not Taqtile’s first or only foray into 5G collaboration and research.
First, he said, I was going to use a generation older hardware from internal prototypes that likely would be improved upon in practically every way before its release as a reference design to developers and eventually to consumers (Google hopes at least HTC can achieve consumer release in 2017 with its first standalone headset).
If this gets fixed, I can say that the tracking will become as the one by Microsoft. The last thing to talk about is latency : the tracking is smooth and fast, but there is anyway a slight delay in tracking. The latency is really a lot less perceivable. Regarding reliability, the controllers very rarely lose tracking.
Switch, despite being substantially underpowered compared to the latest consoles from Microsoft and Sony, has sold tremendously well since its March 2017 launch, reaching 32 million unit sales by the end of 2018.
Augmented Reality Definition Augmented Reality (AR) is a technology that overlays digital content (graphics, text, audio, and video) on real-world images using mobile devices, PCs, or glasses, which have an integrated camera and specialized software (Papagiannis, 2017). Read more here: AR 101?—?Augmented Trending AR VR Articles: 1.
Lots of companies have made this claim actually, but Eonite specifically says they have the “world’s most accurate, lowest latency, lowest power consuming software to democratize inside-out positional tracking for VR and AR.” That’s potentially revolutionary for the VR and AR industry if true.
Nearly a year later, during July 2017, I visited Sandbox in East London for the UK launch of the “Star Trek Bridge Crew” game on SteamVR. Put simply, the Vive Tracker is a wireless, battery powered SteamVR tracked accessory that provides highly accurate, low latency 6 Degrees of Freedom (6DoF) motion tracking within a roomscale environment.
Microsoft demonstrated today that the company is keeping its flagship product in touch with the advances in computer hardware. With AMD and Intel releasing 32- and 28-core processors, reporting as much as 128 cores/threads in a 2P (dual socket) configuration, the question how will Microsoft follow the breakneck pace of CPU and GPU wars.
As a part of TPCast announcement, HTC representatives stated that the latency challenge over Wi-Fi with the resolution of 2160×1200 at 90Hz is not visible, nor the quality is reduced. Existing Vive owners have priority in delivery, which is expected to commence during the first quarter of 2017. Great… or weird?
” Microsoft explains why the company opted against combining Polaris GPU with RYZEN CPU architecture. ” Microsoft Doesn’t really Want Mobile Phones (Again). “Microsoft seems to have shut down the service, breaking the one official upgrade path that existed.
CES 2017, the big tech trade show in Las Vegas last week, was loaded with augmented reality smartglasses, which layer digital animations and information on top of the real world. Above: ODG augmented reality smartglasses at CES 2017. Above: ODG’s booth at CES 2017. Above: Microsoft’s HoloLens in action.
Microsoft has undoubtedly been working on the next version of HoloLens, the company’s AR headset, but now we know a little more about what’s going into the next iteration: a Microsoft-built custom AI chip designed to carry out low-latency computer vision tasks. image courtesy Microsoft. The post HoloLens 2.0
Position and Adoption Speed Justification: Similar to AR, aspects of the AR cloud have existed for decades, but the emergence of the AR cloud as a concept has re-emerged as recently as 2017. Many startups (see vendor list below) are developing revolutionary platforms and systems to bring the AR cloud to fruition.
The first version of Microsoft’s HoloLens Mixed Reality headset has plenty of room for improvement, but the company is working on a new version that will sport a new processing unit to enable the device to use deep learning. Marc Pollefeys, Director of Science on the HoloLens project, recently said as much in a new Microsoft blog post.
The month closes with Microsoft finally awakening, announcing it will ship the $3,000 self-contained HoloLens augmented reality developer kit to developers at the end of March. After such a busy year, Microsoft upends the industry with the revelation of VR headsets starting at $300, powered by Windows with inside-out tracking.
And so that’s how in 2017, Visualix was born. So Microsoft, as you know, we support ARKit- and ARCore-enabled devices. Microsoft launched their Azure Spatial Anchors, we could support Azure Spatial Anchors as well, and take their augmented reality to the next level. The data throughput, as well as latency.

Yes, exactly.
When the first consumer version of the Oculus Rift was launched in the spring, it was disappointingly bundled with a Microsoft Xbox controller – and we’ve eagerly been awaiting the native Touch Controllers. ALL-IN-ONE HEADSETS COMING IN 2017. Now, the day is here, and the wait was… worth it? Want to dive deeper into the details?
They bought a product called Vuforia back from Qualcomm, I believe in 2016 or 2017. Tools like that, like Chalk, and I think Microsoft has their version of it as well on Hololens and other things. Alex: Near zero latency. I ended up meeting Jonathan Moss there and DP Prakash and just a whole bunch of wonderful people.
