HTC Vive VR Comes Next Month with a Bunch of Accesories

htc-vive-vrHTC Vive VR is currently offered for pre-orders, enabling customers to make sure that they get a device phones when it is delivered on Apr 5. A limited number of VR packages have a price of $800 in the United States and the firm said in a short press release that it would initially only send one gadget per client.

The package contains HTC’s Vive VR system, a laser-monitoring program and a pair of controllers. Three virtual reality games and applications are also added: Job Simulator, Google Titl Brush and Fantastic Contraption.

The Vive headset comes at only a few days after Facebook Oculus Rift landed on the racks, while the Sony PlayStation VR might be sold to the customers at a couple weeks after HTC Vive’s launch. The cost for Son’y headset has not been revealed yet, but the Oculus Rift was relatively less expensive in comparison to the Vive.

HTC’s device is also facing the Google Cardboard or Samsung Gear VR, however HTC Vive provides an encounter very different from what a person would get with the cheaper VR platforms. Samsung’s Gear VR and Google Cardboard need a smart phone to work, which will be placed into the gagdet to see 360-degree material.

HTC Vive VR, like the Facebook Oculus Rift, requires a premium game playing PC to operate, due to the experience offered by these headsets. “Oculus-ready” computers are enough to work with the Vive VR system too. Customers, who do not know whether their computers can hold up against the technical requirements of virtual reality, can take a performance test with the SteamVR app.

This allows people to find out if their desktop is VR-compatible, since users’ accounts will not be as prepared as their computers for these new high-end products. That being said, ValveVR has tested this idea for many years to provide pretty amazing results.

Using one of these receptors that come with the package, customers can maximize the room-scale function to get around a 15×15-foot area. Meanwhile, a pair of laser „light houses” monitors and copies their motions.

People can utilize Vive’s movement controllers with each hand and render all their movements within the VR experience while an incorporated digicam will allow wearers to change between real life and virtual reality when requested to. HTC’s Vive headset can synchronize with a smart phone to receive phone calls.

Contacting another individual immersed in virtual reality could be the ideal way to get them interested when playing in a similar space. For people who like to be early adopters in regards to testing new technological innovations, HTC Vive represents a great choice but comes at a substantial cost of $900.

Most customers may not like to spend this amount of money required for the HTC Vive package, along with a game-playing computer. This could prevent this VR system from going popular, at least for now. As other VR material is available while technology becomes less expensive, HTC may be among the top suppliers of virtual reality-based games, thanks to the collaboration with Valve.
