[IDF 2016] About Intel Alloy Fusion Reality Project, you only need to read this article is enough

At 24:00 on August 17th, Beijing time, the IDF (Intel Developer Forum) 2016 was held in San Francisco, the United States. In the first keynote speech of Smart Connected World Driven Future, Intel CEO Kezi Qi showed Intel's latest Merged Reality project and Alloy all-in-one.

In the Alloy project, Intel put forward a new word "Merged Reality", which is different from our previously known "Mixed Reality". Intel thinks this is an AR, VR, MR III. A fusion of people.

In the keynote speech, Intel did not emphasize the parameter configuration of the Alloy all-in-one. Lei Feng network (search "Lei Feng network" public number attention) to understand the information: It is a lightweight integrated device, integrated SoC and head display, without relying on any external sensors and cameras, itself comes with two Real Sense camera. It is equipped with a sixth-generation Core processor (in the future will be equipped with the latest seventh-generation Core processor), the resolution can reach more than 1080P, Intel said that because it is equipped with a strong sixth-generation Core processor, it can support More high-resolution display, depending on how the developer played. Its battery is located in the back of the Alloy machine's head section. Regarding life, Achin Bhowmik, vice president and general manager of Intel’s new technology business unit, said that it can achieve hours of battery life.

The portability and mobility of Alloy is the biggest difference between Oculus and HTC Vive.

The Alloy Fusion Reality Appliance implements 4 new experiences that are different from VR devices:

1, can achieve any movement of six angles

2. No need to rely on any external sensor and camera to rely on Real Sense technology

3. Can identify hand images and interact with elements in virtual reality

4. Complete realization of "fused reality"

The Alloy project will open Alloy's hardware and API to developers in the second half of 2017. As for when Alloy could face the consumer market, Intel did not disclose it.

In fact, in the on-site Alloy demonstration, Alloy's performance is not perfect. In addition to the mosaic of Real Sense clichés, the integration of real time delays and Caton status cannot be ignored. The advantage of Alloy is its portability, ease of use, and wide application range. It can easily realize the interaction of multi-user virtual scenes. In addition to living things, it can capture image information of solid parts. In the keynote speech, the staff takes out their pockets. A banknote and rubbing it against the turntable in a virtual scene can see a virtual picture of a spark.

The biggest difference between Alloy and Hololens: Hololens is more focused on augmented reality. It uses realistic scenes as the background and incorporates virtual elements. Alloy constructs a virtual scene and integrates elements of reality.
