All sorts of devices, immersing their owners in virtual reality, are becoming quite common. Despite the fact that initially such devices (the same Oculus Rift) were a military development, now virtual reality glasses are used for entertainment.

Of course, the most famous gadget from this category are the Ocululs Rift, already twice mentioned. But, since the niche of video glasses of virtual reality is quite large, new models appear, from new companies.

The other day there was information about the ANTVR video glasses, which have a “zest” - a hybrid controller that can be used in shooters, like a gun, in games with swords, like a sword, and in any other games, like a regular controller with buttons and other controls.



In addition, ANTVRs are equipped with aspherical lenses, which, according to the developers, do not distort the image along the edges. The gadget is designed in such a way that people who wear ordinary optical glasses can use it.

The developers also mention the 9-axis sensor, which reacts to the player's movements. In addition to moving forward / backward, the owner of the glasses can jump, or vice versa, bend down. And the avatar in the game will do the same, if, of course, such a function is provided for by the creators of the toy.



The rest of the screen / lenses are slightly different from other devices. This is a 1920 * 1080 display, with a 100 ° diagonal field of view.



The glasses are compatible with PC, Xbox, PlayStation and other devices, including Android OS based gadgets.



This is a wireless device, many elements of which are located just in the controller. The battery lasts for 8 hours of play.



Now the developers are raising funds for the launch of mass production of their device, and at the time of writing the news already collected 115570 US dollars, out of the required 200 thousand. Until the end of the "fees" - 37 days, so that developers can well hope for a successful completion of the campaign.

By the way, here is a comparative table of the capabilities of ANTVR and other virtual reality video glasses.



Well, yes, the "early birds" could order this gadget for $ 270. Now the amount of pre-order - $ 300 and above. Of course, the higher the fee, the more bonuses the buyer receives.
