Htc vive 2 will use a better and cheaper tracking chip
Table of contents:
The HTC Vive have been on the market for quite a few months, so we are already learning new details about their successors, the HTC Vive 2. The latest information suggests that they could use a better tracking chip than the original glasses, and also cheaper.
HTC Vive 2 will be better and cheaper
The new chip in question is the TS3633 from Triad Semiconductor that has only 9 components in its design, a great simplification compared to the 41 components that the tracking chip of the current HTC Vive has. This simplification has a much lower cost of production and it is also much easier to mass-produce it, two fundamental reasons why its price is much more competitive and help to offer cheaper HTC Vive 2.
We recommend our configuration for virtual reality.
This in turn would simplify the design of the motherboard installed in the HTC Vive 2 so that the cost of its manufacture would be even lower. The story does not end there since the new chip is also more powerful in several areas such as the detection of the distance at which the user is, a higher detection sensitivity and numerous other features that help position the user in a much better way. more reliable and efficient. With all this, a new virtual reality device could be offered far superior to its predecessor in several areas, in addition to a lower final price, let us not forget that one of the impediments to the mass adoption of virtual reality is the high cost of necessary equipment.
