The computer graphics card is already very powerful, but the world's more powerful graphics card will have more abnormal games, and the speed of hardware upgrading is very fast. In many cases, you will find that the flagship graphics card that you bought for thousands of dollars can no longer run smoothly under the condition of high image quality a year later.It seems a little worthless that computers have been eliminated so quickly after spending so much money. However, this situation may change with the popularity of cloud game consoles.
In general, the game is installed locally and the rendering calculation is carried out through the local hardware.So whether the game can run smoothly depends on the hardware configuration of your computer.The cloud game console is different. It relies on servers equipped with high-end processors and high-end graphics cards to render game images and perform a lot of other calculations. The rendered game images will be transmitted to the local through the network in the form of video.
The benefits of cloud game consoles are obvious. You don't have to worry about the hardware configuration of games anymore.At the same time, since the game is also stored in the cloud, there is no need to bother where to download the game.At present, Onlive in the United States has launched such a cloud game console, while the domestic manufacturer Onjoy is the second cloud game console in the world after Onlive. At the same time, because it is based on Android system, you can also install Android applications on this console.
At present, Onjoy TV supports more than 200 top PC and TV games such as Command and Conquer, Sims, Quality Effect, Island Crisis, FIFA, Dead Space, Battlefield, Medal of Honor, Top Speed, Diablo, Call of Duty series, Assassin's Creed, Ghost Cry, etc.In addition, it also supports online games such as Nine Yin Scripture and Hunting Soul.Later, more games will be supported in the cloud.
Although cloud games no longer require too much hardware, cloud games are not perfect.Since the whole game is transmitted through the network, the bandwidth requirements are relatively high.According to Onjoy's introduction.When the bandwidth reaches3-4Mbps，The display quality of the game can reach“Wiilevel”。When the bandwidth reaches 5-6Mbps, you can experience HDTVLevel HD games。However, it is believed that with the improvement of video compression technology, cloud games will have less and less bandwidth requirements.
Onjoy TV is not only a cloud game console, but also a TV set-top box.In this regard, its more common set-top box does not have much difference.At present, Onjoy TV supports video sources such as Tianyi, BesTV, Huashu Online, Youku HD, SOHU HD, QQLIVE, Kuliu, Sina, and Excitement.In addition, like other TV set-top boxes, you can also use your mobile phone to control TV by installing corresponding applications.
In addition, we can also install more video applications for Onjoy to support more video content, such as PPTV and LeTV.
At present, OnjoyTV sent for test also includes three USB interfaces, which can be operated by users through external wireless keyboard and mouse.With the familiar keyboard and mouse, we can also browse the web and listen to music as usual.If a USB stick is connected, the video programs in the USB stick can also be played.
Another big highlight of OnjoyTV is that it is equipped with a gyroscope remote control.This remote control not only has the control function of ordinary remote control, but also has the function of air mouse.This is a little similar to the mouse. The difference is that it doesn't need to be stuck on a smooth surface like the mouse to use it. We can control the mouse by slightly shaking the remote control in mid air.In addition, in some games, we can also play games through this remote control.
There are fewer and fewer young people watching TV. Today's young people watch more video programs through the Internet. They are accustomed to quietly watching programs by tapping the keyboard and mouse beside the computer. Moreover, most of the functions of TV set-top boxes are also available on PCs and tablets, which is more convenient. So some people think that TV set-top boxes earn the money of the elderly,Only old people are used to watching TV programs and controlling them with remote controls. This is a declining industry.Onjoy TV, a set-top box, is different. It focuses on cloud games, which are the favorite of young people. At the same time, TV can give you the enjoyment of a larger screen. More importantly, we don't have to worry about upgrading the hardware.Although cloud games still have network speed problems in use, I am optimistic about the future of cloud games.
