Interfaces without monitor and immersive trips: uses of virtual reality for the day to day

[OyaYansa]

If other years was about improving the virtual reality, most projects of Creative Lab Samsung this year are responsible for offering useful and practical uses for day to day.

If innovation in trends is involved, the projects of Creative Lab (C-Lab) Samsung are always protagonists in each event. If last year they were Entrim 4D to simulate sensation movement in virtual reality, or IoFIT, smart shoes with which to monitor sports and improve on them, this year it is Relumĭno, Monitorless, VuildUs and traVRer.

Relúmĭno is an application that allows visually impaired users to read books and watch videos clearly through a terminal inserted in a Samsung Gear VR. According to Samsung in the news, the technology allows to eliminate blind spots by scrolling images. The most relevant of Relúmĭno is that, although limited to Gear VR, it allows people with these problems to access a product much cheaper than other similar ones in the market.

Monitorless, meanwhile, are a pair of glasses with a large set of integrated chips that control computers using touch screen smartphone using Wi-Fi Direct, without adding an additional monitor. Thanks to the electrochromic crystal that they integrate allow to switch between a virtual reality and augmented reality mode, which shows the elements of the smartphone arranged on the background of physical reality. The grace of Monitorless is the concept that reinforces: in a future loaded with convergence, the monitor will become irrelevant.

VuildUs is a tool to decorate the home intelligently with augmented reality, through a 360-degree camera scan that captures measurements and physical elements. Once done, the user places a Gear VR and can represent in their home different furniture at a real scale, in order to check what items would fit in terms of size and what not, and which may fit or not in the style of the house . Integration into the ecosystem allows you to buy from the app paying with Samsung Pay.

traVRer

Finally, traVRer is a 360-degree video platform that deepens the user's desire to fly from the living room to any point of the world, as it has done with Street View, but with much more immersion; Both visual and ambient. When you reach the end of a zone or route you can choose another video and continue "browsing" for that unknown place for the user.
