Chapter 12: VR Optimization (Part II)

Staring at the chat box on the screen, Ge Fan closed his mouth for a while and pushed the frame of his glasses: "Brother Heng, how do you reply?" ”

Editor-in-chief Zhou Zhiheng crossed his arms, frowned and did not speak. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

“…… Master of VR optimization? Zhou Zhiheng thought over and over again in his heart.

If it were someone else, Zhou Zhiheng felt that he would definitely squirt.

In the VR industry, do you put HTC, Samsung, Sony, oculus and other giants in your eyes?

In fact, behind the popularity of VR/AR, it is more like a war between chip and hardware manufacturers.

In fact, chip manufacturers have been doing VR-related optimization, which is why there is a VR all-in-one machine today.

As far as Zhou Zhiheng knows, recently, chip manufacturers, Qualcomm has made the biggest moves, they have launched an SDK, software development kit, convenient for developers to call sensor data, and also made some optimizations to the rendering and power consumption of GPU graphics card chips.

But it remains to be seen how well Qualcomm optimizes for VR.

In addition to Qualcomm, ARM, a chip architecture design company, also has its own actions in VR.

It's just that, whether it's Qualcomm or ARM, improving performance and reducing functions is what they should do well, and besides, the optimization of chip factories can't solve all problems

The same is true for VR all-in-one optimization and computer VR optimization. Intel's VR layout has surfaced.

Of course, hardware vendors NVIDIA and AMD have also released the latest graphics cards and developer support strategies for VR and AR.

NVIDIA's new GeForce GTX1080 graphics card integrates updated physically-based audio support and physics-accurate object manipulation with VR controllers.

At the same time, GTX1080 also supports VRSLI technology!

This crossfire technology allows two identical 1080 graphics cards to render the left and right screens of the VR headset separately, which is sufficient to cope with the higher resolution and frame rate requirements of next-generation VR applications.

AMD, an agricultural company, also released the RadeonRX series graphics cards based on the Polaris architecture in early June.

Judging from AMD's demonstration of the RX480, the RX series graphics cards support htc.vive and are capable of giving users an amazingly smooth VR entertainment experience, as well as VR glasses such as HTC.Vive and OculusRift.

In the nascent VR industry chain, in fact, the optimization is not mature, a lot of work is underway, and even the most basic hardware optimization is not in place, and software optimization is far away.

Zhou Zhiheng stared at the screen and muttered out the message just sent by the betta anchor 'Tianxuan':

“…… Catalyzing the performance of PCs and VR devices? ”

"Optimizing VR immersion?"

"Eliminate the screen door effect and improve the image quality?"

"Reduce vertigo and increase the duration of the experience?"

He divides a piece of information into several pieces.

These directions must not be confused. Zhou Zhiheng tightened his eyebrows, looked at the chat box and smiled bitterly: "Does he know that the optimization he said, just do one of them, it is enough to cause a shock in the industry, not to mention the whole four, it is simply to catch it all without leaving a dead end......"

"Brother Heng, how should I reply!" Ge Fan stiffened his face.

"Test!"

Zhou Zhiheng propped his hands on the little fat man's desk, his eyes became sharp and intimidating, "Tell him, if he has that VR optimization software, we are willing to sign a confidentiality agreement, and conduct a free test, and then with his permission, write relevant evaluation articles and publish them on the Internet!" ”

"And what about the Shenying VR headset?" The little fat man was obsessed with that helmet.

Hearing this, Zhou Zhiheng cast a speechless look at him.

"Fatty, Shenying VR headset and VR optimization software are actually one thing!" Zhou Zhiheng smiled, "I suddenly changed my opinion. This Tianxuan is definitely not just a betta streamer, and I am looking forward to meeting him. ”

……

"I'll give you the software in two days."

Hahyun sent a message and sat back in his computer chair.

He had just rejected a request for a non-disclosure agreement from the staff of the Pain Xun VR community.

The reason, it's really unnecessary to keep it secret or anything, the other party doesn't have a Shenying VR headset in his hand, and it's not too late to sign it when he has a spare helmet to give them for testing.

As for VR optimization software, there is no need to sign an agreement. Xia Xuan planned to use the Pain Xun VR community to promote the software, and he thought clearly that his first pot of gold in the VR industry could only come from "VR Optimization Master".

Backbite.

Move the mouse and click on the shortcut icon of VR Optimizer.

Since it is parsed from the headset, the VR optimization master software on the desktop automatically binds to Xia Hyun and generates a digital account, which is in a login state.

If you want to make your first pot of gold with VR Optimizer, there are still many problems that need to be solved.

The software itself is fine, but the form of landing and profit, Xia Xuan is still thinking about it.

"Xiao Jiu, can you help me modify the software?"

“…… Permission detection ......" the voice of the synthesized intelligence sounded, "Sir, you bought out the helmet from the dream store, and you have 100% permission to the hardware and software of the helmet, what kind of modifications do you need to make?" ”

"Let me think about ......"

"Sir, I recommend you to enter the Dream Factory and start the developer mode so that you can gain programming skills, and if you have any complaints about me, you can even modify my smart instruction set, clear my data, and you will get a smart assistant with a new personality."

"No, no, Xiao Jiu, I'm very satisfied with you." Xia Xuan waved his hand.

Stand in the familiar halls of the Dream Factory.

"Developer mode has been launched."

The hall suddenly darkened, like a starry sky, Xia Xuan looked around in amazement, and found that he was surrounded by a torrent of data composed of 0 and 1, these data are changing all the time, and the structure is mysterious, but Xia Xuan soon found that he could actually observe these data streams from a perspective similar to God's perspective, and understand the specific meaning of their arrangement and combination!

It's an amazing feeling.

Thinking infinitely extends in this starry sky, consciousness seems to be spread to every corner of the starry sky, Xia Xuan is constantly shuttling in the 0 and 1 data stream, and the chaotic mind is gradually clear, he seems to be experiencing growth and understanding these symbolic languages.

In the middle of the night, the hall was restored to its original state.

When he opened his eyes, a glimmer of wisdom appeared in his eyes, Xia Xuan asked Synthetic Intelligence to give him an operating computer, and he couldn't wait to bury his head in front of the computer and operate the file package of "VR Optimization Master".

As a future application software that is matched with the Shenying VR headset, the language and algorithm of "VR Optimization Master" are unheard of for Xia Xuan.

He taught himself computer languages for a while, but after all, he was not a professional, and then he simply gave up all kinds of errand work, and the hard technical career left him.

Xia Xuan didn't expect to be exposed to programs and computer languages again after a few years, and he found that his brain could not only instantly understand the source code of "VR Optimization Master", but also the language of compiling the source code...... Whether it is high-level languages such as C, C++, Java, or drawing languages such as CAD systems, in his eyes, there is room for optimization and conversion to higher-level languages.

It's a whole new language for VR Optimizer!

"Nima! An hour of crash computer language brick home? …… No, it's only been less than a few minutes. Ha Hyun patted his dizzy head, and said in his heart that the developer model of Dream Factory was too rebellious.

It seems that in this way, his obsession with hiring Bella Posey has suddenly weakened.

Bella Percy is a genius in the development of computer languages and algorithms.

And now, in the developer mode of Dream Factory, Ha Hyun is also a genius in this regard, and he is not weak at all.

Based on the developer mode of Dream Factory, Hahyun found that he could start some plans in advance.

FOR EXAMPLE, HE CREATED A GAME STUDIO IN THE DREAM WORLD, WHICH IS NOTHING MORE THAN TO LAUNCH A DIFFERENT VR GAME AND LAND ON THE STEAM PLATFORM TO MAKE A LOT OF MONEY.

Even if he didn't recruit employees, he could now go it alone.

It's just that the efficiency of going it alone is much slower, after all, there are so many things involved in the game, the program is only one aspect, and the art, music, and other parts also account for a lot of weight.

"Let's revise the VR master first, its language is too advanced to be circulated for the time being...... If the app goes well, I'll be able to get some money in no time and actually set up the studio. Xia Xuan said in his heart.
