[Preface]

VR glasses, also known as virtual reality glasses, have always been a big product in wearable devices. However, as an early developer of virtual reality glasses in China, it launched the "Storm Mirror" for 99 yuan in 14 years. While many people are still hesitating about the role of this product, the Storm Mirror launched a manual version for 9 yuan. How about the actual use effect, I was very lucky to apply for this DIY VR glasses from Hard Egg Network. Although the one I got was worth 9 yuan, there were 5000 places in this trial activity. This arrogance also shocked me.

The way to realize VR is not complicated: making the screen bigger or shortening the distance between the eyes and the screen can make the user feel immersive. At present, all headworn products are the latter way, which focuses the user's eyes in a relatively small space. The principle of left and right split screens produces a virtual reality experience, The principle of this manual version of Storm Mirror is the latter.

[Unpacking]

This should be the flattest package of the smart products I have received for trial. In fact, it is a large envelope.

Take out the product and see a piece of cardboard, "leave the earth for two hours". A piece of paper can take me away from the earth for two hours. It's really amazing!

I also found some accessories, two magnets, two convex lenses, two magic buttons and several stickers. It has been almost 20 years since I did manual work. It feels like I am back to my childhood to assemble this.

No instruction manual was found. Although there are some instructions on the cardboard, it still needs to be studied when it is installed. I am not used to reading the manual when I play smart hardware. I really need it this time, so I have to find "Du Niang".

It turns out that part of the cardboard has to be cut off. No wonder it can't be installed all the time. Installation is relatively simple. VR glasses have been formed, and there is also a confirmation key, which is the two magnets. The selection content is basically left and right shaking glasses (you can also shake your head). Of course, if you want to play glasses, you need to have a smart phone (because the evaluation is taken by mobile phones, it's a pity that you didn't take a group photo of glasses and mobile phones). To download the app of Storm Mirror, you should remember to download the basic version (development version). The other two versions are currently unavailable, and there is only an Android app, so the IOS system can only look around.

Software

After entering the Storm Mirror APP, you need to register an account. If you are too lazy to register, you can also log in directly with your Sina Weibo account. Here is my screenshot directly from the mobile phone display, that is, all the reality mentioned above will be divided into left and right images, and the left and right eye parallax will be used to form a 3D effect.

Here we need to use the "Confirm" button (just the two magnets) on the left side of the glasses. Is it amazing that we can really control the phone? We don't know what the principle is.

The column classification inside is relatively simple, which is divided into four categories: panoramic video, panoramic roaming, panoramic pictures, movies and games.

Let's watch the panoramic video first. There are 11 videos in total. If you want to watch them, you should download them separately and watch them. The next<Street Dance Thunder Party>is to experience it first.

Panoramic roaming is similar to the 3D map currently available on the Internet. For example, the downloaded panoramic bird's nest tour can control the direction by turning the head, and you can also look up. The foreground can go to the next place by clicking the confirmation key through the designated arrow. It feels very realistic.

Panoramic pictures are similar to panoramic videos, but the pictures are in a fixed place and then rotated to see 360 ° scenery from all angles.

It should also be a more frequently used column in movies and TV programs. It is mainly 3D movies, but unfortunately in this experience version, the movies in APP are only partial clips. However, the effect is still very good. With an earplug, you can also experience 3D blockbusters lying in bed.

If you don't think there are enough 3D movie sources, you can also go to the Storm AV APP, where there is a 3D section.

In the game part, the sensitivity of head control is good, but after playing several rounds of snow rally, I felt dizzy.

[Feeling after use]

The manual version of Storm Magic Mirror is very good for VR glasses experience, which makes everyone know the use of VR, but also makes the author very worried. Is it really good to put the mobile phone screen so close to the eyes? Are you sure it won't hurt after a long time? Moreover, even if it is to be promoted, there are still too few 3D resources at present. Whether it is a manual version or an official version, film and television resources and game resources need to be increased. If you really want to experience the fun of VR, this manual version is a good try. It can not only experience the fun of DIY, but also experience the functions of VR glasses. The most important thing is that it costs only 9 yuan.
