SAN FRANCISCO – April 13, 2021 – Pico Interactive, a global tech company that develops innovative virtual reality (VR) and enterprise solutions, announces its latest VR headset for consumers in Asia – the Neo 3. The flagship 6DoF consumer headset includes the Snapdragon Platform, WiFi 6 and optical controllers to deliver a powerful user experience. More details on the enterprise version of the Neo 3 – the primary device for all markets outside of Asia that will be available in late Summer 2021 – will come soon.
“These innovative product developments follow our B and B+ funding rounds earlier this year. From our new optical controller-tracking solution to complex environment positioning, the Neo 3 is building off of the Neo 2 to offer the latest technology to give users an amazing, immersive experience,” said Henry Zhou, CEO of Pico Interactive. “Between the Pico Neo 3 headset’s state-of-the-art-technology and Pico’s new publishing division – Pico Studios – developers have the tools to get even more creative with the apps and games they create.”
In addition to being counterbalanced for comfort, the consumer headset adds three physical IPD adjustments to offer a better visual comfort. With the COVID-19 pandemic bringing sanitization to the forefront of everyone’s minds, the headset is also made with all-PU material, allowing for easy and regular cleaning.
Through the use of four wide-angle cameras, the Neo 3 has true millimeter-level positioning and tracking. 3D maps of an environment can be reconstructed in real-time, and stable tracking can be achieved even in a low-texture environment and bright or dark settings. In addition, the Neo 3 has an updated curved screen for sleeker form factor as well as 90hz experiences. Pico’s new 6DoF controller also uses 32 optical tracking sensors – which are more suitable for gaming.
