Oculus Go 32 Gb

The self-sufficient virtual reality helmet, first shown to the public at sunset in 2017 as part of the Oculus Connect conference, is a joint development of the ambitious Xiaomi company and the Oculus brand. Therefore, it is not surprising that the production of VR glasses has been established at production facilities in China.

originality

The helmet is designed to provide greater accessibility to virtual reality, since it does not require connection to either a computer or a smartphone. The assets of the device include an LCD screen with a resolution of 2560x1440 pixels and powerful hardware based on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 chipset (a similar processor is installed on flagship smartphones LG G6, Google Pixel, etc.). Inside, you can play 360° videos on your Oculus Go and spend time playing interactive, immersive games. A wireless remote control is used to control the helmet.

Degrees of freedom

The model uses surround sound technology and also offers 3D location tracking. Those. the helmet reacts to the tilt of the user's head and allows him to look around, but the support for physical movement through the virtual space did not give him a lift. This prerogative was left to the older model from the existing ones — Oculus Rift.

A new round of VR development

It is noteworthy that in the local Chinese market, the model of virtual reality glasses will be presented under the name Mi VR Standalone. As in the global version, the user has the right to choose between two modifications of the gadget: with built-in 32 GB or 64 GB storage. With an eye on the democratic cost of the helmet, we should expect a new round of development of VR technology, which has become more original with Oculus Go.
