Chinese smartphone maker Vivo unveiled a mixed-reality headset that resembles Apple\u2019s Vision Pro in name, design and interface, but weighs about 35 per cent less and is likely to cost one third as much.<\/p>\n
The Vivo Vision is similar to the Apple gadget that is controlled with intuitive eye tracking and hand gestures, according to information published on Vivo\u2019s website on Thursday.<\/p>\n
But the Vivo device weighs 398 grams, much less than its US rival, which weighs at least 600g, addressing one of the most common concerns of high-end virtual-reality (VR) headsets.<\/p>\n
The headset has two organic-light-emitting-diode displays, each with a resolution of 3,840 pixels by 3,552 pixels, which combined deliver 8K resolution. The product is powered by Qualcomm\u2019s Snapdragon XR2 Plus Gen 2 Platform, which boosts the graphics-processing frequency by 15 per cent compared with its predecessor for crisp visuals and less jitter, according to the company.<\/p>\n
The headset also offers two strap options: a solo knit band and a dual-loop band.<\/p>\n
For now, the unit only works with certain Vivo phones and with computers running Windows 10 or later versions for screen projections.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Chinese smartphone maker Vivo unveiled a mixed-reality headset that resembles Apple\u2019s Vision Pro in name, design and interface,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":19369,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[74],"tags":[311,5926,9451,1793,381,18,16905,6608,5218,19,17,16902,16904,2792,10522,12275,82,107,286,16903,16899,16900,288,16901],"class_list":["post-19368","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-apple","tag-ar","tag-augmented-reality","tag-beijing","tag-china","tag-eire","tag-hainan-province","tag-headset","tag-huawei","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-mixed-reality","tag-mixed-reality-headset","tag-shanghai","tag-shenzhen","tag-smartphone","tag-technology","tag-us","tag-virtual-reality","tag-vision-pro","tag-vivo","tag-vivo-vision","tag-vr","tag-xr"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19368","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19368"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19368\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19369"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19368"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19368"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19368"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
