Although Apple is about to set off an iPhone enhanced reality in the user's mobile phone screen, take advantage of its camera to project people to the real world. However, the enhanced realistic helmet is now available, and this idea can be successfully realized and present in front of the user. And an AR device is less than what we expected.
This Mira Prism will be launched later in 2017, it is a simple AR helmet that maps 3D images in front of the user with an iPhone for about $ 100.
Mira Prism looks like a strange giant sun visor, or like a futuristic welder mask, it can be easily worn on the head. Take a little bit, we can click on the floating card passing stars that are squatting on the table.
If you want to make hologram dance presented in front of you, we usually need a high-end smart glasses or a helmet as Microsoft holographic lens Hololens. And during I played Prism, I found that although it is not as magical as Hololes, it is not as amazing like Apple's upcoming reality tool arkit. But as an inexpensive accessory that can provide a reality experience for many people, it is still good. This is a bit similar to Google Cardboard to enhance realistic cartons, but it is only higher.
Mira is located in Los Angeles, USA, founded by Ben Taft, Matt Stern and Montana Reed. The three founders of Mira are alumni, Jimmy Ivine, Jimmy Ivine, South California, and the Andre Young (ANDRE YOUNG) Art Business Comprehensive College, the college aims to cultivate art, technology and commercial innovation talents. Mira has now blended funds from Will.i.am, Salesforce CEO Mark Beniv (MARC Benioff).
PRISM currently only supports iPhone devices, and has not launched the Android version, which can adsorb the iPhone device in the helmet with the rubber ring. There is a large "sun visor" in front of the device, which can reflect stereoscopic images in the phone, turn them into floating three-dimensional virtual items. I made a demonstration in the CNET office, I feel that their 3D images are very realistic and convincing. My side is covered with polygonal planets, and the space boat can be controlled with an elastic teddy, and this rope is controlled by hand-held remote wand. With the help of a built-in round virtual pen, I took the spaceship and landed on the desktop.
So, how should I use this helmet?
Mira has plans in games and entertainment applications, and cooperates with some companies with entertainment assets. At present, Disney has reached its own AR / hybrid realistic helmet cooperation relationship with Lenovo. Mira Prism can become a more affordable AR tool and game accessories. In fact, the multiplayer game field is Mira's largest vision. The company hopes that a few people can experience the same AR technology at the same time, and I hope that people can watch and take AR experience on another mobile phone running MIRA applications.
This helmet will be available in time before the holiday season, and will bring developers from this fall. However, Apple's enhancement realistic platform Arkit and new iPhone will also come at this time. Arkit has demonstrated some of some impressive technologies and don't need to wear helmets at all. However, Mira founders believe that both have no effect: Prism aims to create applications that make full use of Arkit platforms, making it a better future. The launch of a software development kit (SDK) and unified compatibility will make the application of the application easier.
However, there is a premise that developers need to be interested in developing compatible Prism applications, while the wireless remote control used by Prism is a product between Google Daydream and Samsung Gear VR remote control bar.
AR helmet can also be made lowly
Others don't say, Mira Prism has proven that people affordable AR helmets are coming. And I think it doesn't be the only device: next year's mobile phone may have a wave of AR technology-based novelty equipment, just like a cheap virtual reality helmet from Best Buy.
Can MIRA stand out in the competition of the world's potential AR products? And my biggest concern for Prism is that Apple's upcoming AR-based new phone will be amazing as their promise, and is also compatible with many applications. In this case, what is the meaning of people buy a separate helmet? Moreover, although Mira can perform remote control, it lacks six degree-of-freedom tracking capabilities, which means it is not like high-end VR and AR helmets and controllers with high sensitivity position identification.
Mira Prism must prove its software worth buying. Although its price is reasonable, time may be a challenge. Of course, if PRISM can make mobile phones that can activate helmets become possible, then Mira will make it very meaningful.
