HTC VIVE unveiled a number of innovations at Mobile World Congress 2022, including advances in 5G technology, in-car VR-based entertainment, Location Based Entertainment, and showing the latest updates to the Viverse.
We are at the start of the next era of social interaction and content consumption, and VIVERSE is very much a part of that. Viverse, is our version of the metaverse; an immersive, boundless universe of fantastic new experiences, and a seamless gateway to other universes in collaboration with our partners from the time you wake up in the morning until the time you go to sleep at night.
We’re announcing a number of innovations and products which make life seamless for people exploring Viverse, ranging from VIVE Browser – a new VR-based web browser, and VIVE Connect – a portal to experiencing the Viverse and traversing it, as well as VIVE Guardian – a new tool for VIVE Flow which makes life for parents, guardians and teachers easier by giving them new controls over what young people can see and experience in VIVE flow.
We even introduced a new VIVE Avatar tool, build on VRM standards to make it easy for you to build a single avatar and take it with you into other services. We highlighted that by showing live demonstrations of people moving from VIVE Connect to VIVE Sync to Engage.
We also showed off advanced 5G demos. Working with G Reigns and Supermicro, we built our own low-latency 5G network and powered several demonstrations. The Reign Core 5G solution is compact and highly portable, and played a starring role as live video from radio-controlled cars was delivered to drivers who were sat facing monitors away from the race track, with them making real-time steering adjustments over 5G.
And speaking of cars, we put on a live demonstration of the latest work from holoride. Changing how in-car entertainment for passengers will work in the future – matching VR games and immersive videos to the motion of the vehicle, letting passengers enjoy content in lightweight immersive glasses, VIVE Flow.
But that’s not everything when it comes to entertainment. VIVE also showed the latest from Yullbe Go / Europa Park for Location Based Entertainment, allowing five players wearing VIVE Focus 3 to roam the same map, interact and game together.
