HP is launching a new virtual reality headset, the Reverb G2 Omnicept Edition. The headset is part of the new “HP Omnicept Solution” and is fully available for new sensors for developers and businesses to use and create experiences for training, health, creativity, and collaboration.
Available in the spring of 2021 for developer and industry users, the new headphone design and interior design is quite similar to the original HP Reverb G2, which is called the world’s tallest VR headset.
However, the new Reverb G2 Omnicept packs in addition to face tracking from Tobii and heart rate sensors, such as the eye camera (which HP calls first in the commercial headset.) It also features a new head ratcheting header, designed to capture headset to suit different users with ease.
Although not built with home users in mind, the Reverb G2 Omnicept Edition is also called the “most intelligent VR headset of the text.” It is part of – and is designed to integrate with – the development experiences created by the HP Omnicept SDK, as well as for use with flexible programs from HP partners. Without the SDK or those programs, intruders would not be able to have the capability of all new sensors, or face tracking technology.
Like HP, when combined with the SDK and used in conjunction with other partner programs and solutions, insights from sensors on the headset can help business owners and entrepreneurs with a few things. For example, a teacher teaching someone to learn how to fly a plane in a simulation can look at the real-time driver of the pilot, and where their eyes look during the event.
And, thanks to the eye camera, the recipients of the Reverb G2 Omnicept Edition can enjoy real human interactions and view facial expressions when they synchronize in the virtual world. This can be useful for word training, especially, as demonstrated by an HP partner, Ovation, a real word training experience.
Essentially, the headset is designed to make virtual and personal virtual reality technology for business purposes. “HP Omnicept is different. It is much more than hardware. It is a general solution that puts people back in the middle with highly adaptive, personalized personal experiences, ”Anu Heranean, a product manager at HP, said in a statement.
“With Omnicept we bring together applications, AI, and sensors in a single platform that enables VR software developers to create a new user-friendly interface and business usage cases that can then be delivered,” Heranean said. .
HP does not share pricing at this time. The company encourages anyone interested to tune in on October 1-2 at the VR / AR World Conference to see the headset at work.
