According to foreign media reports, Google's previously announced VR mobile platform Daydream will be launched in the next few weeks, with a new generation of Android phones, VR devices and controllers jointly released. They are also quietly cooperating with other companies and will launch dozens of applications. Compared with the highly acclaimed Gear VR in the field of mobile VR, one Android-based system is open to many mobile phone manufacturers, and one is exclusively customized with Samsung. Despite Daydream’s inability to see the exact details, the battle for VR mobile platforms seems to be fast. Will be staged.
In May of this year, Google released Daydream, a VR mobile platform that consists of three parts: smartphones, helmets and controllers, and applications. In the mobile phone part, Google will set up a VR certification for mobile phones. The mobile phone needs to meet certain standards in order to carry Daydream, such as screens, sensors, etc. In terms of applications, Goggle will provide Android VR Mode for certified mobile phones, which can optimize applications and improve performance. It also includes a main interface similar to Oculus Home. It is called Daydream Home.
At present, Gear VR is the first player in the field of mobile VR. In May, an article was issued stating that Gear VR exceeded the million-user mark in April, and the average daily use time is 25 minutes. As expected, Samsung recently released its latest product and made slight improvements. Meta code founder Nada once said in an open class that there are many similarities between the two, such as the design language, underlying logic, algorithms, specifications, etc. are very close, especially Daydream unified mobile phone accessories, but the top zero in most mobile phones Parts are still produced by Samsung, so Gear VR has an advantage.
However, Daydream let other mobile phone manufacturers enter the mobile VR, which is obviously better for the popularity of VR.
Recently, at the Cologne game show, UPLOAD of foreign media asked Nate Mitchell, vice president of Oculus Products, about the competitive relationship between Gear VR and Daydream. Nate said that in cooperation with Samsung, there has been a lot of investment in hardware and a high-quality VR experience has been achieved. This is only to support Samsung's mobile phones, and Google will have to face more mobile phones, which will become even more difficult.
In his opinion, Google may face a diverse Android ecosystem equipped with Daydream. Specifically, he believes that fragmentation may be a big problem. If Google only targets mobile phones with OLED screens, this will reduce the scope of their support for mobile phones, but for the first time Google releases mobile platforms, they still have many challenges.
In fact, Daydream announced that netizens began to discuss this topic. On Reddit, a netizen commented that Daydream has advantages over Gear VR, mainly in the following aspects:
R&D for a long time; future may be supported by Project Tango;
Popularity is high, with over one billion Android device users. Chrome currently has the largest share of the browser market, and Google seems to be interested in integrating Daydream, Chrome, and Android together.
Finally, it is open, Gear VR is difficult for other developers to make some changes, such as the background of the Home, the layout of the application and so on.
Foreign media Digital Trends thinks Daydream may be a nightmare for Gear VR. The best way for Samsung and Oculus may be to use Daydream's standards while creating a brand new Gear VR. Obviously, because Samsung has already established cooperation with Google, it will launch Daydream-enabled mobile phones. It is still not clear if there are new head phones. But if Oculus can abandon software, and focus on hardware is naturally a smart move, but Facebook is more want to dominate.
Smart TV/box information can focus on smart TV information network sofa butler (http://), China's influential TV box and smart TV website, providing information, communication, TV boxes, smart TVs, smart TV software, etc. Answering questions.
