HTC announced this week that its standalone Vive Focus VR headset with six-degree-of-freedom tracking (6DoF) will hit the market worldwide later this year. In a bid to ensure that there is content for the Vive Focus on the market by the time it arrives to retail outlets, HTC is making available appropriate developer kits to registered software makers in most countries starting immediately.
The HTC Vive Focus VR handset is based on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 835 SoC, has an AMOLED display featuring a 2880×1600 resolution, and a 75 Hz refresh rate. The device is equipped with some DRAM (unspecified), storage (expandable using a microSD card), 802.11ac Wi-Fi, and inside-out 6-degree-of-freedom tracking (6DoF) that does not require any external sensors for positional tracking. The key feature of the Vive Focus is that it can be used everywhere without any PC or base stations: just wear it and the battery allows for use for up to three hours. As for controls, the Vive Focus will come equipped with a relatively simplistic Bluetooth 3DoF controller akin to those supplied with the Samsung Gear VR headset.
