HTC today announced its third batch of AR/VR startups backed by the company’s Vive X accelerator program. ” Started last year, Vive X is a $100 million fund for AR/VR companies that, according to HTC, provides “unparalleled access to expertise, resources, planning and an extensive network throughout the AR/VR industry.”
This process introduces ‘latency’, which is the time it takes to update frames with new user input taken into account. For an action title to feel responsive, latency needs to be under 150ms in a traditional video game, so keeping it reasonably low is a challenge. Let’s look at latency first.
The synopsis of the presentation reveals that Lanman will focus on eye-tracking technology and its potential for pushing VR and AR displays to the next level: As personal viewing devices, head-mounteddisplays offer a unique means to rapidly deliver richer visual experiences than past direct-view displays occupying a shared environment.
Combining light field rendering and headmounteddisplays, hospitals can bring surgeons a solution that is superior to traditional imaging systems like microscopes while saving costs and improving patient outcomes.

Together with connection reliability, the Client updates included much improved inside-out tracking, local dimming, lighthouse mode, audio latency adjustment, bug fixes, and other important features. Arguably the most important update, and something long awaited by the non-Beta community, was the activation of eye tracking.
Following the release of the Meta Quest Pro, HTC VIVE XR Elite, and Pico 4 Enterprise, the firm’s massive windfall in hardware options has empowered its clients with expansive support. Expanding into this is Apple’s head-mounteddisplay (HMD), the Apple Vision Pro. Enter the Apple Vision Pro: The Game-Changing Headset?
The codec also boasts sufficiently low latency that it can reliably deliver VR streams to untethered, mobile, VR head-mounteddisplays. 265/HEVC compression to HTC VIVE hardware at 2160 x 1200 resolution at 90fps. The company’s RealityCodec acts as a low-delay H.265/HEVC Currently, the system offers 250:1 H.265/HEVC
With a wide field of view (FoV), the head-mounteddisplay (HMD) offers drivers a trove of features. With the new system, drivers can remain unobstructed in their view of the real world in their heads up displays (HUD). This additionally offers drivers low latency, real-time hand and eye-tracking solutions.
The HTC Vive is arguably the best out there, but having to buy a souped-up laptop just to run it, paying full price for brief games that feel more like demos, and trailing a huge cable off your head and fumbling to mount trackers on your ceiling…it’s not ideal. The visual input is the most important piece of the VR setup.
Below, I describe my personal perspective on the road ahead for the OSVR software along several paths: interfaces and devices, game engines, low-latency rendering, operating systems, utilities, and high-level processing. Latency comes from multiple sources including: how often do the sensors generate data?
Price ranges from $60 to $100, which is rather affordable, compared with Oculus Rift or HTC Vive. Compared with the mobile headsets, Oculus Rift’s head-mounteddisplay provides a view of higher resolution and broader field, in addition to its integrated headphones which provide a 3D audio effect. HTC Vive ($499).
The main issue was that I had been chasing evolving hardware, from the Oculus Rift DK1 to the Oculus Rift DK2, and now to HTC’s Vive. I have been working on full native support for HTC’s Vive head-mounteddisplay over the last few months (with the first major break-through in May), and I think it’s working really well.
There’s an issue here in our industry that we have a concern about putting head-mounteddisplays and glasses on people’s heads if you’re dealing with thousands of guests. Do you want to have a head-mounteddisplay, or would you rather have the images projected onto the surface you can interact with?
