We were tasked to demonstrate a commercial application of next-generation Virtual Reality technology to the architecture and property sectors. We created a turn key hardware/software platform and proved it on several projects.
The HTC Vive (and later Vive Pro) was identified as the most suitable platform as it allowed the user to physically move around the space, powered by high-end workstation processing and graphics to achieve the highest quality result. We used Unreal Engine to develop an intuitive VR user interface within a highly realistic virtual environment. We also created the VRx Cube, an all-in-one VR kit that protects the equipment when not in use and during transport.
VRx offered a turn-key VR solution at a time when others were still bringing arms’ full of prototype components.
