VRTX from Vortex VR

Recently, Vortex VR introduced VRTX, the mobile virtual reality solution which comes in the form of a mobile VR headset. However, it does not come with its own built-in-display. Instead, it will leverage on the LG G3 handset as the display tool which run on Android OS. For your info, Vortex VR collaborates with its technology partners, GameFace Labs and 3D Systems (3DS), to produce this cool mobile virtual reality headset. 3D Systems is the one that custom printed the VR headset using the Selective Laser Sintering process. Just to let you know, Vortex VR’s headquarter is at Raleigh Studios in Hollywood. Cool….

Since LG G3 is a high-resolution display (HD) smartphone, it will probably provide an acceptable and good display quality for VRTX. The G3’s Quad HD panel is 5.5-inch with 2560 x 1440 display. That is quite high-res, isn’t it? Nearly double than the current HMD devices in the market today. This high PPI (Pixel-Per-Inch) will definitely provide more detail and better picture quality for the viewers. With this kind of specs, it should also be able to minimize the pixelation issue which can affect the immersiveness in the virtual environment. Hope this can also reduce the possibility of the users from having nausea, motion sickness, headaches or dizziness while wearing it. Furthermore, it provides a 100 degrees field of view.

At this moment, those who are interested can buy it for $99.99 (close to a hundred dollar) at VRTX’s official website. For more info about VRTX, you can visit:
1) The Official Website of VRTX.
