VR You Can Use
ANYWHERE #Helpful Post
hey
guys za Steen I might not have a
voice
today what I do have is the Lenovo
Mirage
solo a daydream you see I did
there
this is a very different way of
doing
VR this is a very different way
for
me to talk in my videos cuz I'm sick
of
course you shoutout to Lenovo for
sponsoring
this video what makes the
Mirage
solo a little bit different is
this
is a properly powerful untethered
VR
headset inside you'll find a 2560 by
1440
piece 75 Hertz display now that
high
resolution especially paired with
the
high frame rate is really key to
making
the VR experience feel natural
one
of the main advantages of using the
Mirage
Solo is that this is a fully
standalone
headset I don't need to worry
about
my smartphone being plugged in and
draining
battery and it's also a much
smoother
experience a largely dude
actually
to the fact that it does have
not
only that high refresh rate display
but
importantly it also does support
world
sense so unlike most daydream
headsets
which do rely on a little bit
more
of a limited bit of luck gyroscope
to
be able to kind of place you in the
world
we do have a full 6 degrees of
freedom
what's really cool about this is
that
you can use it literally anywhere I
mean
I'm in the middle of the park and I
can
easily be playing a game watching a
movie
it really does give you a lot of
possibilities
Niraj solo runs on
daydream
Google's VR ecosystem
surprisingly
it actually works really
well
you have most of these different
apps
and features that you have on full
Android
just available in a headset form
that
means that we've got apps such as
YouTube
VR now this will give you a ton
of
different options so if I jump in
here
now I do we have full 360 and
180-degree
video which looks great on
the
headset but you can also watch the
standard
2d video like this the way that
works
is it literally looks like I've
just
got a huge display in front of me
like
a movie theater or something so
thanks
to dead trigger and a few zombie
friends
I can show a little more of the
performance
of what you can actually
expect
out of the Mirage Solo inside we
have
pretty decent specs Snapdragon 835
as
well as 4 gigabytes of RAM that's not
bad
that's bad no no no no you should
get
3 hours of battery life if you can
survive
the zombies that long but there
are
a ton of games and apps that do work
on
the headset it's not all about the
Mirage
solo though there's also this
little
guy the Lenovo Mirage camera with
daydream
this is not a 360 degree camera
uses
a pair of fisheye lenses upfront to
give
you a 180 degree field of view or
as
Google calls the format VR 180 this
is
a demo of what video looks like on
the
Mirage camera one of the cool
advantages
of this format is that what
you
still get all the advanced
of
ER you still do get a very wide
field-of-view
- this is a full 180
degrees
what I like about this is it
gives
you a lot of flexibility when it
comes
to framing so we can still have
Ken
you know behind the camera doing Ken
things
but I can also pick it up and
very
easily do a little bit of vlogging
so
with a really cool part about this is
that
because it is so wide I know that I
can
always get the shot and specifically
if
you do have a smartphone you can
actually
scroll on the video if you
watch
the raw stuff link in the
description
but it's a really really
cool
aspect or a really cool way of
shooting
you generally don't get with
any
kind of standard camera you can
control
the camera as well as playback
the
photos and videos using the VR 180
app
so this is a little demo that we
took
in the car a couple days ago so as
you
can see what's really cool about the
180
format is it specifically on a
smartphone
you can pinch in you can zoom
around
but you do get that sort of full
180
degree field of view so the video is
a
lot more immersive when you're
watching
it in the headset so it's kind
of
hard to sort of give you a real demo
without
actually having one of your own
but
it makes a huge difference and
because
the camera will shoot at a full
4k
resolution we get those pixels all
the
way blown up makes a really big
difference
I mean I can see the detail
on
the gauges I can see the terrified
look
on Ken's face I can see Jay as he
makes
this tight corner and up hello
yeah
oh dude look she feels really good
if
I like spin the chair as I see myself
turning
the car it actually feels like
I'm
really there if you've never
properly
experienced VR or maybe you've
been
turned off by cheap mobile VR the
Lenovo
mirages solo and camera are
definitely
worth a look and of course
I'll
have a link to check out both these
guys
in the description as well so if
you
want more information I'll have a
bunch
of other videos linked as well
