Skyworth VR new brand pancake xr&; New pancake 1
Li Wenquan, general manager of Skyworth VR, said at the press conference: "PANCAKE 1, as the second generation product of Skyworth VR, ushered in a comprehensive upgrade of product hardware, software and content ecology, and quickly promoted the destruction of Skyworth VR brand." PANCAKE 1 brings players an ultra-thin, ultra-high-definition, ultra-accurate and low-latency virtual reality experience with PANCAKE short focal length folding optics, high-end hardware configuration, powerful self-developed 6DoF algorithm and ergonomic design.
Product end: three short-focus VR all-in-one machines appeared.
The price starts from 2999 yuan
The conference * * * released three models: PANCAKE 1C, Pancake 1 and PANCAKE 1Pro. All three models adopt the short-focus scheme of pancake folding optics, and are equipped with the mainstream configuration of Qualcomm XR2 and 6DoF, which are extremely destructive and impactful to the whole VR all-in-one machine industry in terms of performance, display, interactive experience and price.

It is expected that PANCAKE 1Pro launched by Skyworth VR will support RGB perspective mode, eye tracking, gesture recognition and miniled backlight function at the end of the year, and it is expected to cut off Meta“Cambria "and become the world's first consumer-grade 6DoF VR all-in-one machine based on PANCAKE optical scheme and supporting full-color perspective.
Punch marketing is a necessary marketing strategy for VR manufacturers. At the meeting, it was announced that PANCAKE 1C and PANCAKE 1 will be pre-sold on JD.COM, Aauto faster and other e-commerce platforms on August 26th, and the payment will be refunded in full for 320 consecutive days. Starting from 2999 yuan, it is indeed the world's first consumer-grade short-focus 6DoF VR all-in-one machine. PANCAKE 1 started the first shot in the short-focus consumer market and is expected to lead the development of the short-focus VR all-in-one market.
(1) ultra-light and ultra-clear, pancake folding optical scheme
The weight of VR all-in-one machine has always been the direct cause of the user's wearing time. The head display weight of the traditional optical scheme is above 600g, and the optical module is 39mm thick. However, the thickness of the optical module is only 17mm, and the thickness is reduced by more than 50%.
Skyworth's new PANCAKE 1 mainframe weighs only 189g, which is 3/4 smaller than the traditional optical scheme. The weight of the whole machine was not announced at the press conference. According to the staff, the weight of the whole machine is less than 450g g.
It is said that Skyworth VR has 30 patents related to optics, and the yield of Pancake optics of PANCAKE 1 can reach 60%~70%. Imaging problems such as ghost, distortion and dispersion have been effectively adjusted, with fine details and clearer overall vision.
PANCAKE 1 screen adopts dual 2. 1 inch fast LCD screens with binocular resolution of 4560x2280, 15 12PPI, which is the highest level in the world. At present, the PPI of mainstream products in the industry is around 1200. In addition, the screen refresh rate can reach 90Hz and the field of view angle can reach 95.
(2) Smooth experience, self-developed 6DoF algorithm
6DoF will become the industry standard, and high-precision and low-delay algorithm tracking is the key to VR immersion. Zhang Yi, the person in charge of Skyworth VR software, said: Pancake/KOOC-0/is equipped with a self-developed 6DoF algorithm, a four-fisheye camera, a built-in high-precision IMU, and supports a self-defined security boundary (the range is not less than/KOOC-0/0 */KOOC-0/0m), which can track stably in complex environments and different lighting conditions.
The tracking range of the handle covers 240 in the horizontal direction and 195 in the vertical direction. The positioning accuracy is less than 10mm, and the delay is less than 20 ms Even if the camera partially blocks or faces the low-texture environment such as the ground, it can track in all directions, which fully meets the requirements of walking and jumping in virtual space.
(3) Ergonomic design "the first VR all-in-one machine that can be played in public places"
The design of PANCAKE 1 is based on ski goggles. The core design of this product revolves around a balanced, zero-pressure tough headband, which can reasonably disperse the pressure brought by the U-head display. The weight of the main engine is 189g, which is more than half of the weight of the mainstream VR head display. The rear battery design balances the front and rear weights well.
Li Wenquan said that the main unit of PANCAKE 1 can be turned from 0 to 90, and PANCAKE 1 is the only product in the industry that can be worn without a magnetic mask. When it can be used at will in public places such as subways and shopping malls, users can perceive the outside world and enhance their sense of security.
Content: SkyOS platform
Construct a diversified content ecology
