Related Product: UC-win/Road
This is a plug-in that links UC-win/Road to VIVE HMD (Head Mounted Display) and allows wearers to experience VR space.
HTC VIVE is a HMD for VR developed by HTC and Valve. In addition to displaying images on the screen inside the HMD, it can synchronize the movement of wearer's face with the UC-win/Road screen and give him/her a higher immersion because external sensors equipped on it detect the position and posture of the HMD.
Overview
Oculus Rift Plug-in can also cooperate with HMD. Though basic functions that enable the immersion to 3D space is the same as HTC VIVE, a large difference between HTC VIVE and Oculus Rift is the size of immersion range. While Oculus Rift provides the area of about 2.4 m at diagonal line, HTC VIVE does up to about 5 m. That is, you can have a VR experience in wider range with HTC VIVE than Oculus Rift.
