[Abstract] In addition to HMD headsets, this developer kit includes the Windows 10 Insider preview and software development SDK to help developers build more complex mixed reality applications.
Although Tencent’s (Rabbit) News on a number of PC makers will launch a virtual reality device based on the Microsoft Windows Holographic platform, has been reported for a long time, but there has been no specific product debut. At this year's GDC Game Developers Conference, Microsoft officially displayed the HMD custom virtual reality device development kit from Acer. It seems that the Windows 10-based mixed reality developer version will soon reach everyone's hands.
For the first time, we know that PC manufacturers are developing HMD headsets at the Taipei International Computer Show in 2016 and the WinHEC conference at the end of the year. Although there were Intel and Microsoft hardware vendors, it was not clear at that time. But I believe that from now on, there will be more hardware manufacturers' products coming out one after another.
At the CES at the beginning of the year, we saw Lenovo display a prototype machine, but now Acer has officially released the developer toolkit. This developer version provides a 1440 x 1440 pixel display with a pixel density of 706ppi per screen and a 90Hz refresh rate. And it also has a built-in microphone and 3.5mm headphone jack, and can also use the HDMI 2.0 interface to connect with the PC monitor or USB 3.0 interface to transfer data, so in addition to VR can provide a mixed reality experience.
It is reported that this version of Acer's mixed-reality developer will be gradually provided to developers in stages, the first batch of developers to get tickets on the GDC, and will begin shipping at the end of this month. It is reported that in addition to HMD headsets, this developer kit includes the Windows 10 Insider preview and software development SDK to help developers build more complex mixed reality applications.
Microsoft stated in the official blog: "We are very happy to finally bring everyone on the Windows-based hybrid reality device in addition to HoloLens, and our plan is to integrate the mixed reality content into the Xbox platform, even including the 2018 Project Scorpio. â€
At present, we don't know much about this Acer hybrid reality device in more detail, but I believe that with the continuous launch of the developer kit, some people will show us more content in the future. In addition to Acer, Microsoft said that in 2017 there will be more manufacturers of the same type of product, it is worth looking forward to.
