Starting with its $2B acquisition of Oculus in the spring of 2014, Facebook has continued to build out its virtual reality strategy in a big way. 360videos were implemented into your Newsfeed over a year ago, and 360 photo functionality was instituted over the summer. FACEBOOK KEEPS PUSHING THE VIRTUAL ENVELOPE.
HTC Vive fans got a nice surprise yesterday when Google Earth launched for free on the headset. Salvaged , a long-in-development strategy game from UK-based Opposable Games, has just launched for the Rift on Steam Early Access at $12.99. Tagged with: Salvaged , sci-fi , strategy. Now its Oculus owner’s turn for a treat.
I still remember when Amaze was a distribution platform for 360videos … I loved the high quality of its videos and I also loved the team working there. Then the startup pivoted to VR concerts when it understood that the market for 360videos wasn’t going to explode. The booth for Beatday.
I expected the convention area to be a bit bigger … but probably HTC didn’t want to make a bombastic event with thousands and thousands of people there, but preferred a more sober event with some hundreds of people in the audience and thousands following the online stream. Lip Tracking module for the HTC Vive Pro.
What strategies have you employed to develop it? Can I launch some Linux VR games or 360videos or something like that? Valve Index or HTC Vive controllers). SimulaOS is able to handle external monitors (for non-VR usage). How has it been difficult to create a VR version of Linux? Is it possible to do something more?
HTC’s Vive X accelerator is a $100 million fund for AR/VR companies that the company announced last year. Today HTC is revealing the second batch of companies that will receive investments and mentorship from the program. Each accepted company gets an undisclosed investment and hands-on mentorship from HTC.
This latest acquisition is another piece in a secretive strategy: over the past few years Snapchat has quietly acquired a couple of other potentially augmented reality-related companies as well as talent. Someone is Always Ready to Help THIS version of the HTC Vive….
A bizarre strategy, that doesn’t surprise me anymore, though. The VR route is instead being pursued by HTC (with its VEC event happening soon) and IEEE. In the meantime, when asked about these rumors, Rony Abovitz answered his typical way, just saying “42”. I hope for him that this won’t lead the company to the disaster.

Managing partner Teppei Tsutsui drops by to share some of his investing strategies. Teppei: Yeah, there is a $10-million series C lead by HTC, and also another fund called The Makers.

He’s the marketing director of Insta360 and leads North American marketing strategy, partnerships and communication efforts. And it’s also when you’re thinking about a 360video, and I know this is probably trivial knowledge for you, since you’ve been using our tech for so long. Is that correct?

Alan: There’s VR where you can make the full thing in computer graphics, but there’s also 360videos; being able to capture a training experience in 360video, and then add computer graphics on top of that. They’re going to sell you 360video. HTC VIVE sold a couple million.

Alan: There's VR where you can make the full thing in computer graphics, but there's also 360videos; being able to capture a training experience in 360video, and then add computer graphics on top of that. And if you bring in a studio who is really good at 360video, guess what they're going to sell you.
So we’ve got an update from HTC and Oculus on what’s the state of the hardware. And a lot of things that we did years ago — like 360video stuff — is now kind of coming around full circle and saying, “Oh, well, 360video is good for training, and we don’t have to fully CG render everything.
And we have a big data strategy at SuperWorld. So we’ve launched Crowe: The Drowned Armory on Oculus and HTC. HTC is also one of our investors. Alan: Is it volumetric or 360video? Hrish: It’s 360. And then that would be characterized as kind of like Pokemon Go meets Foursquare, right?

We also have a top list of the absolute best HTC Vive games — which is updated every few months with the latest and greatest options. New HTC Vive Releases on Steam.
Then sort of how we get it there is really where each company has a different strategy. And previously having been at HTC Vive -- and before that actually HP -- I have an interesting perspective on kind of all three of those. And what some companies have done is actually flooded a real home and then created 360video of that home.
This may be Apple’s strategy to make people wear something on their head while they wait for a more complex headset. More info (Jon Prosser’s video) More info (Apple’s proprietary QR Codes) More info (Steve Jobs AR glasses). This means that you can shoot 30FPS videos and then have fluid ones as output! We’ll see….

Do you remember when everyone was mocking HTC for its super-high prices and people were praising Meta for its cheap costs? The Quest Pro fits very well this strategy since it is a headset made for professionals. One of my predictions for Meta Connect was that Meta was going to define better its enterprise strategy.

The base content was 360video, but a branch narrative of 360video. I mean, there’s people out there charging that much just for 360video development. So that’s my stance on 360video with regards to virtual reality. So it’s pretty impressive what you guys were able to do.
