Zero Latency, on the other hand, has taken a more technical approach to their platform by offering fine-tuned location-based experiences that feature high accuracy tracking for maximum immersion while in-game. HP Windows Mixed Reality Headset / Image Credit: Zero Latency.
The new ‘edge computing’ service promises “single-digit millisecond latencies” over 5G networks. Amazon says the platform is made for “latency-sensitive workloads” including AR/VR streaming, game streaming, IoT and more. These network hops can result in latencies of more than 100 milliseconds.
“It has USB and wireless PCVR streaming (I tried USB) this was more [work-in-progress] quality (frame rate and latency) compared to other features, but its a relatively recent feature [as I understand it]. So when Watson says something is good, it probably is. The basics like controller motion were nailed down and resolution was solid.”
After having written my predictions for virtual reality in 2020 , let’s see what will be the trends for this year in augmented reality. In fact, nReal has been the best XR gadget of CES 2020 and have seen many clones starting popping out like mushrooms. In my opinion, nReal won’t make AR mainstream in 2020.
Lynx R-1, the upcoming standalone MR headset, has been delayed to late 2020, but a new update from the company says they’re targeting a lower price and now including Ultraleap hand-tracking. He also said the headset’s pass-through latency is expected to fall between 12 and 15 milliseconds.

Location-based VR company Zero Latency announced it’s working with Warhammer creators Games Workshop to develop an out-of-home VR adventure based on the Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine franchise. Zero Latency is rolling out the Warhammer experience to locations starting in 2023.
The experience is planned to launch in October at Zero Latency locations worldwide. We knew as of 2022 that a Warhammer 40K experience was in development for VR attraction Zero Latency. But we know that Zero Latency is a VR attraction with experiences that are typically designed to last around 30 minutes.
Kuo has made many predictions in the past based on supply chain movements, including Apple’s 2020 switch to its own custom ARM-based processors for Mac computers, the 2019 release of a new MacBook Pro with a 16-inch display, and the release of the entry-level iPad with an A13 chip in 2021—just to name a few.
But of course the thing we’re looking for is the rumored announcement of Apple’s first XR headset, which we expect will come at the end of the keynote—though we’re still 50/50 on whether or not it’ll be preceded by the words “one more thing,” which the company hasn’t dropped since 2020.

Version 24 shipped in late 2020, suggesting Avalanche has been in development for at least four years now. There is a potential for high latency if the server is far away, and for judder caused by packet loss if the connection quality is poor. In 2020 Facebook Gaming VP Jason Rubin described cloud VR gaming as more than five years out.
A recent Statista report shows that users spent 71% more time using VR in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic and subsequent lockdowns. Bigscreen’s social VR platform adds new TV to its lineup of 3D movies, sports, and news. . But that’s all Bigscreen is telling us right now.

Waltz of the Wizard is the first game on PlayStation VR2 to support hand tracking following today's free update.
AR adoption has been accelerated in 2020 as COVID-19 has monumentally disrupted enterprises, including employee health and operational capabilities. Latency and bottlenecks degrade the video experience and could ultimately lead to the underutilization of AR systems. Meeting the Moment.
The initial lawsuit was filed in late 2020 and was tossed out back in June by a judge which argued that the FTC failed to make its case. Zero Latency Free Roam VR Company Attracts New Majority Investor Advent Partners. Category leading Zero Latency VR has 55 venues open in 24 countries. They raised $10.2
Several reports over the past two years have suggested Apple is getting ready to manufacture an AR headset , and possibly ship it sometime in 2020—something that’s so far unsubstantiated by the company itself. It won’t be a standalone affair like HoloLens 2 either, Kuo suggests.

He roughly concluded that LCDs typically are less expensive, brighter, and offer greater pixel density, while OLEDs have lower latency, better contrast, but suffer from limited brightness. He confirmed the company would naturally want to move from a tethered Oculus Link experience to a wireless experience down the road.
They were also named Microsoft Partners of the Year in 2020 and received funding through Magic Leap’s Independent Creator Program in 2019. This is closely linked to XR because XR applications require greater computing power than 2D media and therefore are more impacted by latency when run on slow networks.
