April 28, 2022 – Helsinki – Varjo – the industry-leading provider of professional-grade VR/XR solutions – today announced the immediate availability of its Varjo Reality Cloud platform, which allows even the most complex metaverse to stream in real-time to supported devices for both professional and prosumer users.
Originally acclaimed for delivering the industry’s most advanced VR/XR hardware, the commercial availability of the Varjo Reality Cloud platform is a significant milestone on the company’s long-term journey to build the ultimate hardware/software stack for scaling high-performance immersive computing across all headsets, regardless of manufacturer.
Varjo Reality Cloud is powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS) in addition to state-of-the-art NVIDIA GPUs and is future-proofed for running graphically-intensive virtual- and mixed-reality applications across any device. With Varjo’s proprietary foveated transport algorithm, users can stream immersive content from Varjo Reality Cloud to devices with a lossless visual fidelity via a compression rate of 1000:1, and a bandwidth of 35 megabits-per-second via highly secure, enterprise-grade data encryption.
Through this, professional customers can at last safely and securely stream their most complex immersive VR/MR applications and models (as well as human-eye resolution VR/XR content) from the Reality Cloud directly to Varjo’s headsets. This use case specifically unlocks new levels of scalability and productivity for virtual and mixed reality workflows in one of the most demanding industries for VR/MR – automotive design using Autodesk VRED™.
Later this year, users will also be able to use the platform with other supported applications incorporating the leading 3D engines – Unity and Unreal Engine. To make this an industry-standard, Varjo intends to expand device support beyond its own portfolio of headsets to enable any user to join collaborative immersive sessions from a variety of iOS and Windows devices, including phones, tablets, and PCs in the second half of this year.
The launch of Reality Cloud is a major milestone towards Varjo’s ultimate vision of allowing real-world workflows and applications to move into photoreal-immersive environments that can be experienced across the Web in real-time. Starting today, Varjo Reality Cloud with cloud streaming support for Autodesk VRED is available for up to five concurrent users per company at $1495 per month.
