Head Mounted Display Support

Commercial Virtual- and Mixed-Reality HMDs

MVRsimulation VRSG supports 3 or 6 degree-of-freedom (DOF) position tracking technology. This capability totally immerses users in a simulated world with either a handheld visual device or a head-mounted display (HMD). VRSG's tracker support is integrated directly with the display mechanism such that latency is minimized during rapid movements by the user. 

For immersive viewing, MVRsimulation's VRSG technology supports a range of virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality (XR) systems. When using a VR or XR system with VRSG, users experience MVRsimulation's high-resolution geospecific terrain and real-time, accurate physics models from VRSG 3D model library in a 360-degree view at 2160 x 1200 pixel resolution. 

The use of VRSG with VR and XR devices is nearly the same for all systems. Settings include whether to render the scene in a single pass, render the controllers and/or or base station, and resolution refinements for foveated rendering. 

A VRSG license can create and display multiple viewports, or concurrent views, where each viewport can be assigned to a different view of the scene. VR/XR devices require at least two viewports (one for each eye) or four viewports (two for each eye), depending on the manufacturer. Note that the pricing of a VRSG license is structured on a per-viewport basis. (See the Price List for more about VRSG per-viewport pricing.)

Varjo

VRSG supports integration with Varjo XR series HMDs, allowing the user to fully immerse themselves in the virtual world during mixed-reality training scenarios. Depending on the HMD used, the XR series gives users a full frame bionic display with human-eye resolution at over 20/20 vision, up to horizontal 115-degree field of view, up to 90 Hz refresh rate, and ultra-low latency mixed reality, dual 12-megapixel video pass-through at up to 90 Hz. 

VRSG's support for Varjo is via a plug-in. 

To take advantage of the eye-tracking technology built into Varjo headsets, VRSG can visualize the gaze of the wearer. For example, during a simulated flight, VRSG can track the pilot’s head position and orientation within the cockpit simulator, track the gaze vector using the Varjo device’s pupil tracking functionality, and then depict the gaze of each eye independently as a color-coded 3D cone. During a real-time simulated exercise or an after-action playback, VRSG can visualize the pilot’s head position, orientation, and gaze vector over the events of the training session.

Vive

VRSG's support for virtual reality HMDs includes those that are compatible with SteamVR, including the latest HTC VIVE series systems. The support is native meaning no plugin or coding required. For the HTC Vive series VR headsets, VRSG includes support for the HTC Vive Tracker. Vive Tracker tracks moving objects by wireless interface in VR, and can pair with HTC’s wireless dongle or use its USB interface to transfer tracking data to a PC.
