1、 Development history of virtual reality technology (VR):

VR -- Virtual reality technology, also known as spiritual environment technology or artificial environment, started in the embryonic stage from the relevant research on computer simulation carried out in the United States in the 1980s. The so-called VR technology is to use optical technology to create a three-dimensional virtual world and provide users with the simulation of vision, hearing, touch and other senses, It is a technology that allows users to observe things in three-dimensional space without restrictions, as if they were in the same situation.

With the wide application of VR in space, medical, military and education in the United States, other countries are also catching up, so since then, virtual reality technology has been widely noticed. Since then, VR technology has been in the hot stage of related research and basic discipline construction, and has developed rapidly. At the same time, VR technology has also made great progress in Asia. Japan, South Korea, Singapore and other countries are actively carrying out research on virtual reality technology. VR research in China started late, and there is still a certain gap from the most advanced front-line research field of VR abroad. However, with the continuous progress of science and technology, and the high attention of relevant government departments and scientists, VR has been included in research projects in the Ninth Five Year Plan, the National Natural Science Foundation of China, and the National High tech Research and Development Plan Science and technology companies have also actively invested in this field, and made remarkable achievements. However, due to the high cost of hardware and the conversion of software tables, The development of VR technology was once hindered. Until the end of 2013, with the substantial reduction of the cost of virtual reality hardware equipment, the improvement of mature technology reserves and the presentation of huge market application prospects, VR technology ushered in the dawn again and entered a new stage of rapid development. In particular, the introduction of Oculus Rift glasses has made VR technology enter a new chapter in its development.

2、 Pico1 virtual reality helmet introduction:

Pico1 virtual reality helmet is a headworn display device launched by Pico Beijing Bird View Technology Co., Ltd., which takes the mobile phone screen as the carrier, and can provide users with a 360 degree giant screen surrounding, time-space travel, and immersive audio-visual experience. Pico is committed to the research and development of virtual reality software and hardware, and the creation of virtual reality content and applications. It is a start-up enterprise that focuses on creating an end-to-end experience of the full platform of virtual reality. It has a sense of technology, simple beauty, natural and comfortable design. Immersive new experience is the core pursuit of Pico brand.

3、 Unpacking:

The packaging box of Pico1 virtual reality helmet gives me the first impression of being "big". The slim box is made of hard paper shell material and is designed to pull up and down, which is different from the design of traditional pull box, The Pico1 helmet box adopts the diagonal asymmetric design, and the light green lining increases the freshness and fashion sense. The whole box is designed in full black, and after sanding treatment, it feels very good. The front of the box is printed with a green product logo and "- A New Reality -", The back of the box is the product name, bar code, company address, two-dimensional code and other information. The design of the box is simple and clear, and the red Lei Feng trial label is affixed, which is more harmonious.

Open the packing box, Pico1 VR helmet lies quietly in it, next to Pico VR VIP membership card and accessory packing box. The objects are placed in order and protected by soft sponge pad, which can ensure that the product will not be damaged during transportation.

In addition to Pico VR VIP membership card, open the accessory box, and there are detachable lycra cloth straps, USB data cables, instructions, and mirror wiping cotton cloth inside.

The main body of Pico1 virtual reality helmet is black and white, which makes it not only low-key and restrained, but also shows a kind of elegant and gorgeous beauty. The front sunshade is made of translucent plastic, the back is made of soft plastic and skin like multi-layer foam, and the left and right sides are made of tie bolt holes. It looks very grand and fashionable overall. According to the official website, Pico1 virtual reality helmet adopts the main structure of high-strength polycarbonate material, 100 times of violent fall test, 90 minutes of high-frequency vibration test, 48 hours of non-stop high and low temperature impact test. The specific situation was not tested. Looking at such a beautiful Pico1 helmet, I really didn't have the heart to do violent fall test and high and low temperature impact test. Sorry, but from the perspective of hand feel and workmanship, it is still very good.

4、 Detail display and key description

First is the lens. Officially, Pico 1 helmet uses two imported COP (cycloolefin polymer) professional optical lenses with a diameter of 40mm, which has a light transmittance of up to 92%, and is lighter, thinner, and more collision resistant.

The second is the multi-function key/power on key and indicator light. The former is used when turning on/off, answering and making calls, or starting the external lens of the mobile phone. The latter uses red/blue matching to indicate different working states, which makes it very beautiful when used at night.

The third is the myopic adjustment gear. Adjusting to the left decreases the myopic degree, while adjusting to the right increases it to meet the needs of users with different myopic degrees. This design is really humanized.

Next are the volume adjustment key, touchpad and return key. The volume adjustment key is mainly used to adjust the volume. The touchpad supports up/down/front/back operations. Click directly to confirm. A short press of the return key will return to the previous menu, and a long press will bring up the main menu interface.

There are standard 3.5mm audio jack, Micro USB power supply interface and microphone hole at the bottom. You must know its function. It is worth mentioning that Pico1 virtual reality helmet is equipped with a microphone, which can directly answer and make calls. This is a rare design in similar products, but it shows Pico1 characteristics and innovation.

There is also a pull-out mobile phone compartment box of Pico 1 helmet, which is suitable for 5-6 inch mobile phones. The author's 5.5 inch MX4 PRO is placed in it, with some gaps. The box adopts an open and close design, which is very convenient to put and take the phone. In the middle, there is an elastic cushion sponge+leather material design, which can protect and fix the phone. It is not only exquisite, but also very careless in design.

5、 Experience:

( 1） Wearing experience:

Since Pico1 VR helmet body is made of high-strength polycarbonate COP lens, detachable lycra bandage and skin like multi-layer foam design, the whole body is only 288g, very lightweight, skin like multi-layer foam design can make Pico1 helmet close to the face, while two detachable lycra bandages not only have reliable high strength and long life, but also can skillfully balance the head weight, It helps to distribute the pressure reasonably. This design is very comfortable to wear, without bearing.

( 2） APP and actual use experience:

As a virtual reality helmet with mobile phone screen as the carrier, Pico1 helmet must be combined with the corresponding APP to play its talents. Scan the QR code in the user manual or on the bottom of Pico1 helmet to download and install it. After that, you need to open your phone's Bluetooth to connect. These operations can be easily completed according to the prompts.

After the connection is successful, put the mobile phone into the mobile phone compartment box, and you can enjoy the comfortable and atmospheric virtual 3D world provided by Pico1 helmet. There are all kinds of movies, videos and games, and the resources are very rich. In the actual experience, the author mainly watched the 3D version of the Zodiac and played a super racing game, whether watching movies or playing games, The Pico1 helmet gives me a very good feeling, especially the 360 degree playing mode. The author likes it very much, and can watch local videos and online videos, so you can download the videos to the local place before watching them. Of course, you can also watch them online directly, but you must ensure that the network is unblocked to have a smooth viewing experience, otherwise there will be stuck and frame drop, Also consider the flow.

In terms of the overall viewing effect, Pico1 helmet performs very well. When the movie is played, the video background will automatically switch to the theater projection hall mode, creating a real immersive 3D experience, which can really give people a feeling of being in a real theater; When playing the local video, the picture is also clear, the stereoscopic sense is very realistic, and there will be no fuzzy purple edges at the edges. However, when playing online videos, there will be a "stuck" phenomenon, which mainly depends on the network where the mobile phone is located, but has nothing to do with the Pico1 helmet. It's even more cool to experience the game with Pico1 helmet. In the game, you can control the direction of the character by turning the head, and you can also switch 360 ° viewing angles in all directions. It's really fun to play and omnipotent. However, at the beginning, vertigo will occur, especially in fast moving scenes. Therefore, it is suggested that when using Pico1 helmet, first of all, you should choose a comfortable position to experience. Second, if you feel uncomfortable, you can take a proper rest and then experience.

       Different from similar products with remote control handle, Pico 1 helmet adopts the design of cursor+touch panel. In use, it can be controlled and operated through the cross cursor in the center and in combination with the touch panel. Swing your head to move the cursor to the place where you need to operate, click the bump on the touch pad on the right side of the helmet. Note that the volume adjustment button in front of the touch pad will only take effect when you wear headphones. However, the author has a question. The design of the touchpad on the right side can meet the usage habits and needs of most users, but will left-handed people be crazy? Therefore, it is suggested that this point should be further considered and improved. In addition, Pico 1 virtual reality helmet can also answer the phone and directly open the rear camera of the mobile phone. In the process of watching video or playing games, if there is a call, press the power button briefly to answer the phone, press the power button for 2 seconds to hang up the phone, while press the power button briefly directly to open the rear camera of the mobile phone, press the power button again briefly to close the camera. The operation is very simple and the actual experience is also very responsive, The voice of answering and making calls is very clear.

6、 Summary:

( 1） Features and innovation:

one . One touch call answering: When immersed in the virtual reality world, if there is a phone call, just press the Bluetooth multifunction key of Pico1 helmet to pause the movie playing or game progress. It is very convenient to answer and make calls through the built-in microphone or the listening microphone of the headset without taking out the phone for operation.

Quickly turn on the camera

two . Activate the phone rear camera function: Pico 1 helmet leaves enough room for the rear camera of the mobile phone to play. Click the Bluetooth multifunction button to wake up the rear camera in any scene and peer into the real world from the VR scene, as if overlooking another parallel universe.

3. Distance sensor: Equipped with a highly sensitive distance sensor, when the helmet is removed, Pico 1 helmet will automatically turn off the phone screen, save the playback progress, and automatically wake up the screen the next time you wear the device.

  （2） Deficiencies and suggestions:

1. Only Android phones are supported, and Apple phones do not currently support it. It is expected to be fully compatible in the future.

2. Some details and APP still have room for further optimization and improvement.

7、 Tips:

1. If you watch it for a long time, you will feel dizzy and dizzy. It is recommended to use it for about 30 minutes or feel unwell. You must take a rest.

2. Pico 1 helmet has certain requirements for the size of the mobile phone screen. The mobile phone screen placed in the interlayer should preferably be between 5 and 6 inches, and it must have a gyroscope function.

3. Due to the optical design principle of Pico1 helmet, this helmet is not suitable for children under 12 years old to watch.

4. Watch movies and play games. It is strongly recommended to connect to Wi Fi before starting. Tuhao can ignore it.

In short, As far as the recent experience is concerned, Pico 1 VR helmet's impressive performance, compact and exquisite appearance, strong immersive feeling, and rich APP resources have left a deep impression on the author, which is commendable. The price of entry-level VR experience products is even more impressive, with strong attraction and allure. However, there are still many shortcomings. Pico 1 VR helmet still needs to be further improved and improved. I hope that there will be insufficient improvements in the follow-up products. I also wish Pico 1 VR helmet better and better. If you are a player who likes to watch movies, play games and pursue 3D cool experience, Pico 1 virtual reality helmet is definitely your best choice.
