HTC introduces VIVE WAVE VR SDK and VIVE FOCUS for VR in China

HTC introduces VIVE WAVE VR SDK and VIVE FOCUS for VR in China



Today is an important milestone for VR in China. One of the VR industry leaders, Vive, has announced that they are extending their product line, vast content library, and open platform offering to Mobile VR, with the newly launched Vive Wave VR open platform, and also the Vive Focus standalone VR headset, powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 VR Platform. They will be offering the Vive Wave platform for OEMs to implement on their devices to help stimulate the VR ecosystem in China and reach more consumers.

It is already widely recognized that mobile is going to drive the next wave of innovations in XR (VR and AR). Consumers want low-friction experiences, ease of use and installation, and high performance in affordable devices � attributes that the mobile industry has consistently shown to offer given its scale, speed of innovation, and low-power. Mobile VR can be realized with either smartphone slot-in viewers or standalone head-mounted displays (HMDs but also called all-in-one).

The Wave VR SDK offers an open interface that enables interoperability between numerous mobile VR headsets and accessories, with Viveport as the content platform for compatible devices. This allows VR content developers to efficiently and attentively develop content while offering them a broad reach of potential customers across multiple vendors. Meanwhile, hardware vendors are able to focus on true device innovation versus fundamental VR optimization, with access to much needed high-quality VR content through the Viveport platform. Interested Vive Wave developers who didn�t come to the event can directly apply online at Vive�s developer portal.

Qualcomm Technologies has been working on mobile VR in China for the past several years. From the beginning, we recognized the tremendous growth opportunity in the region and started working to grow the ecosystem with OEMs, ODMs, developers and content providers, independent hardware and software vendors, accessory manufacturers, and business verticals. However, as with most new revolutionary products, the speed of progress was hampered due to multiple and conflicting platforms and lack of available and compelling content and apps.

As strong believers in the potential of XR as the next generation of mobile experiences and in the adoption rate in China, we started working with HTC Vive to fulfill the missing gaps and ultimately improve and expand the experiences to consumers. We found great synergies between what Qualcomm Technologies had to offer with its mobile SoCs, VR software, and HMD Accelerator Program, and Vive�s VR open platform including the new Vive Wave VR SDK, Viveport content platform, and their vast developer community.

HTC also announced Vive�s first standalone VR headset for the China region: the Vive Focus. This exciting device represents the core essence of the superior integrated mobile VR experience, designed to provide ease of use with no cable or complex setup, �world-scale� tracking with 6-degree of freedom (6DOF) motion tracking, and a high-resolution AMOLED screen. It is powered by the advanced features of the Snapdragon 835 VR platform and utilizes the Vive Wave platform, including a rich library of VR content available on the Viveport. Over 35 Chinese and global content developers have already built VR content optimized for Vive Wave and more are expected for the product launch.

�With Vive Focus, we are excited to now be able to bring high-quality 6Dof VR experiences, which were previously only available on tethered devices, to a more convenient and portable form factor,� said Alvin Wang Graylin, China Regional President of Vive, HTC.

Numerous OEMs have already expressed interest in working with the Vive Wave platform, some of them announced today as well, and additional device launches are expected in 2018. For additional information, please visit Vive Wave VR SDK and Vive Focus websites.

Requirements:
  • Windows 10 SDK works best on the Windows 10 operating system. And it is also supported on: Windows 8.1, Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2008 R2, but not all tools are supported on these operating systems.
  • Current release (Version 1511) of the Windows SDK doesnt include a .NET Framework Redistributable Package. So we may need to install Microsoft .NET Framework 4.6 Package.
  • Make sure the computer you�re installing on has the minimum required disk space that is from 10MB to 2.5GB hard disk space, otherwise, setup will return an error.
  • If you are trying to attempt online installer for windows 10 sdk. Make sure your system having good internet connectivity.

Description:
1. Why UWP apps?
There are so many improvements on Unviersal Windows app development for Windows 10 from Windows 8.1 experience.
  • Previously in windows 8.1 universal app project, we need to create two different app packages (.APPX) for windows phone & Windows, but now no more than one app package and we can use only one app package that can run across all Microsoft platforms (Mobile,Desktop,Xbox,Surface Hub, Holographic, IOT..etc)
  • Now no need to create two separate projects for windows phone and windows, with windows 10 sdk now build one Universal Windows app that runs on all Windows 10 devices.
  • We no longer need a developer license with Windows 10. But we must Enable Developer Mode to your device for development.
2. How to install Windows 10 SDK ?
Please follow below steps to install Windows 10 SDK.
Step 1: Make sure you�ve to downloaded the latest Windows 10 SDK or Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 from here (Note: current version is VS 2015 Update 1). After that downloaded file will be locate at Downloads folder, And I am locating downloaded file in below path.

Now wizard would be like below
Now press what ever you want to perform on setup below actions
Modify: This options is for changing custom installation of Visual Studio
Repair: If you think any package installation was missing from your current custom installation settings, then again you can repair setup to get missing package installation on your machine.
Uninstall: This option is for removing setup from your PC, Note: you need to also remove shared components of Microsoft .NET Framework 4.6 SDK.

if you think any package was missing from your installation, press Repair button from wizard, but it will take time for repairing setup and screen could be comes with below message like All specified components have been repaired successfully" and also we need to restart our system for making better result of setup file.


4. How to install Windows 10 Emulators?
Generally it is impossible to test our UWP app on every Windows 10 physical device, So visual studio made an nice extension is called Emulator concept, So Emulators can help us to see how our app appears on a different Windows device. But there are below few limitation to use windows 10 emulators
  • To test app in any of the emulators, you must have to install Visual Studio 2015 update 1 or later on a your machine.(Like in earlier above discussions)
  • Your processor should supports Client Hyper-V and Second Level Address Translation (SLAT).
By default, directly Windows 10 Emulators may not available with current version of Visual Studio 2015 Update 1 and you need to download windows 10 emulators separately. So please follow below steps to install window 10 emulators
Step 1: How to to download windows 10 Emulators SDK?
When you open your visual studio to create new UWP app and trying to run your app on emulators from Debug section you would be find below screen:
So click on Download New Emulators and it will redirect to a Windows 10 Emulators link there you will find below option to download latest emulators
Okay to download emulators, Tap on Install Emulators and it will start to download setup file and locate it in Downloads folder. So after completion of download i placed the setup file in below folder path:
Now double tap on above setup file name is EmulatorSetup and you will find below screen:
In above screen for offline installation, I am trying to download entire setup file to specific folder path is D:SoftwaresVStudio2015EmulatorSetupEmulatorOffline. you can also choose first option for direct online installation if you have good network speed in your PC.
Now the wizard will ask you about Windows Kits Privacy with below screen, choose yes and press Next button
