Since last year, when Storm Technology has been growing rapidly, the world has begun to believe that VR/AR will become our future. What can VR/AR bring us in the future? game? Watching movies? Or work?

At present, although many world giants have joined the ranks of VR/AR, the entire VR/AR market has been developing slowly due to the lack of hardware, technology and content. Especially for our domestic manufacturers, VR/AR can only be made into a plastic box so far, and they have no ability to solve a series of problems such as hardware constraints, optical distortion, viewing dizziness, and lack of content.

Just when I didn't have any expectations for VR/AR, I was honored to experience the Hijing H2 engineering machine that is still being crowdfunding in JD. I heard from friends that this product will bring a better use experience than traditional VR, and I can feel it if I have experienced it, so I began this experience with full expectation.

Unpacking

The packaging design of Hi Mirror H1 adopts white gray color, which is simple and fresh. A picture of the product on the front instantly creates a sense of technology.

Can't wait, just unpack. When the package is opened, the first thing you see is Heijing H2, while other accessories attached are neatly placed on both sides of Heijing and packed in separate cartons.

The following is a family portrait. The Heijing H2 received by the author is an engineering machine, so its accessories are not representative of the subsequent mass production models. The family portrait of engineering machines includes: Heijing H2, Type C data cable, HDMI+USB two in one adapter cable, controller, earphone, earphone silicone sleeve and charging power supply.

Product details

Like its first generation, Hikvision H2 adopts the design of head mounted display+controller. In terms of head mounted display, Hikvision H2 has made many improvements compared with the first generation, but still continues the design of whale curve. The streamlined shape and front black mirror design are full of science and technology.

There are two physical buttons on the whole body, which are designed at both ends of the head mounted display respectively. The hidden button design also makes the whole body more beautiful. The left key function of the HMD is 2D/3D switching, and the right key function is brightness adjustment switch.

The inner face contact part is made of integral polyester sponge, which is thick and soft.

In the center of the two eyepieces, the distance sensor is added to the Hi Mirror H2, so that the function of playing on and off can be realized, which is very user-friendly.

There are pupillary distance adjustment, myopia adjustment and headphone hole at the bottom of Hi Mirror H2.

It is worth mentioning that Hikvision H2 adopts an integrated design of pupillary distance and myopic adjustment, which not only supports 1000 degree myopic adjustment and 64 ± 6mm pupillary distance adjustment, but also supports independent adjustment of single eye, so Hikvision H2 basically meets the needs of all people.

In order to match the wearing problem of different users' faces, HiMirror H2 also has a variety of adjustment designs.

The highest concealment is the tightness adjustment of the headband.

The diamond button in the front of the headband is the key to adjust the tightness of the headband. Just press the diamond button gently and rotate it left and right while keeping it pressed. The design is very ingenious.

In order to reduce the weight of the head mounted display, Hikvision H2 adopts the design scheme of head mounted display+controller, in which the controller integrates the host function and has a 6800mAh battery, while the head mounted display only has a helmet and screen display hardware. The biggest advantage of this design is to greatly reduce the weight of the head mounted display, Let the head mounted display part of Hi Mirror H2 be only 236g, which greatly improves the wearing comfort. The whole controller still continues a generation of simple design, and adds voice keys on the original basis, which to some extent enhances the control performance of the controller.

The switch key is designed at the corner, and the bevel treatment is made to increase the sense of design, so that the controller is no longer square and upright. After starting up, there will be blue indicator lights beside the switch key. In addition, these five blue indicators actually have the power display function. When the power is full, the five lights will be all on, which is more intuitive.

Three cooling holes are designed at the upper and lower ends of the back of the controller.

The product mark on the low end of the controller shows that the host of HiMirror H2 supports WIFI, Bluetooth and HDMI connections, 3D and other functions, has a built-in 6800mAh battery, and supports three different fast charging modes: 5V 3A, 9V 2A and 12V 1.5A. It only takes 2 hours to charge with the original charger.

The bottom of the controller is designed with an HDMI interface, and the top is designed with a Type C charging interface that supports fast charging, as well as a USB interface for expanding functions.

So much for the appearance details of Hi Mirror H2. Thanks for watching.

Wearing feeling

Hi Mirror H2 is only fixed on the user's head by straps, and according to different face shapes, Hi Mirror H2 has designed a variety of adjustment methods. You must make appropriate adjustments according to your own face shape to reach a comfortable level. The head mounted display part of Hi Mirror H2 is only 236g. Compared with many similar products, Hi Mirror H2 is the lightest, The face contact part is made of thick sponge material, which is not only comfortable to touch, but also breathable and prevents fogging. Therefore, in terms of wearing, Hi Mirror H2 will be more comfortable than similar products. However, if the neck does not have any support to watch for a long time, the neck will still be tired. Therefore, it is recommended that the head should have something to lean against when watching the Hi Mirror H2 to avoid fatigue caused by watching for a long time.

System UI

Connect the head mounted display of Hikvision H2 to the controller, and click the switch on the upper right corner of the controller to start using it.

Hi Mirror H2 has built in the Whale intelligent system based on Android in-depth customization. The system UI is similar to most TV boxes, and the main interface includes online video, VR experience hall, My App, My Content, App Store, system settings and personal center.

In the settings, you can set some settings about the system. The only thing worth mentioning is that you can set the theme, color mode and sound mode according to the user's personal preferences.

In terms of built-in content, Hijing H2 has cooperated with Youpeng Pule. As the largest Internet TV service provider in China, Youpeng Pule has provided Hijing H2 with more than 200+3D movies, 4000+2D movies and 200000+TV dramas, which can basically meet the needs of users.

In addition, since Whale intelligent system is based on Android system UI, the system also supports humanized extension services. It can not only install various software and games in the built-in application market, but also support U disk installation. Therefore, users of Hijing H2 do not have to worry about application resources.

Hardware performance

In terms of screen, Hikvision H2 uses two Sony 0.7 inch ultra clear OLED micro displays with a single eye resolution of 1080P, which makes its PPI reach an amazing 3147. In terms of product performance, pirate chips with independent property rights, specially designed for head mounted display devices, are used with 2G RAM and 32G ROM. In terms of this hardware, we may not know much about the self-developed chip. After all, as a processor chip of Hikvision H2, it is required not only to support dual screen drive display, but also to support 4K and 3D movie playback capabilities. In addition, it is required to have better expansion compatibility. How about the performance of the pirate chip of Heijing H2? Let's take a look.

Hi Mirror H2 supports 4K hard solution. The author played two different 4K videos at random, which not only can be played, but also the whole operation and switching are very smooth.

In addition, in the aspect of playing 3D video, the author tried Avatar movie, which also opened in seconds, very smoothly. When the Avatar movie was just opened, it was played in left and right format. After clicking the one button 3D function button on the left side of Hi Mirror H2, it can automatically switch to 3D mode.

In addition, the video playback interface can also directly call out the settings of left and right format, top and bottom format, and frame packaging format, so we can see that Hikvision H2 basically supports all current 3D format movies, and its compatibility can be said to be very comprehensive. Since there is no top and bottom format movie for testing in my computer, I will skip it here.

As a movie viewing VR, Hijing H2 can clearly run smoothly on video playback after actual experience, which can fully meet the needs of users for movie viewing.

Display effect

Because Hi Mirror H2 is equipped with oval eyepieces, after wearing Hi Mirror H2 and adjusting the pupil distance and focus, the whole field of vision you can see will be elliptical, and the middle display screen will be maximized in front of you. The screen is dark all around, making you feel you are in the middle of the cinema.

Hi Mirror H2 uses two Sony 0.7 inch 1080P ultra clear OLED micro display screens. Although this is the biggest guarantee for the display effect of Hi Mirror H2, if you look very carefully, you can still see the existence of pixels, but in the process of viewing, it is very subtle and can be ignored. In addition, in terms of color, Heijing H2 also has a good color restoration ability. Although the screen of Heijing H2 is very small, the author still took the actual display picture of Heijing H2 from a very close distance with his mobile phone. The following pictures are taken by mobile phones and only deal with the size. From the color display, the picture is very delicate.

The biggest advantage of Hikvision H2 is that it plays 3D movies. Because it uses two display screens, slightly different images of the two screens can be projected onto the retina through the pupil at the same time, so what the left and right eyes see is no longer a picture, and the user's eyes can focus freely on any position, thus forming a real naked eye 3D. After all, watching movies with 3D glasses will greatly reduce the display brightness and color display of the screen. Only naked 3D can bring the best viewing effect. Because this 3D visual experience cannot be displayed through photos, it can only be realized when you experience it with real machines.

Finally, in fact, the benefits of using dual screen display are not only better 3D effect, but more importantly, it really won't dazzle! No dizziness! No dizziness!!! It is important to say that three times, after watching a 3D movie for nearly two hours, the author did not feel any discomfort at all, and after getting used to this display scene, the immersion is also very good.

How to play

1. Watch blockbusters

Hi Mirror H2 is actually born for watching movies, especially 3D blockbusters. Thanks to its high-definition dual screen design, the 3D screen effect of the movie is very obvious. At home or on the road, using Hi Mirror H2 can subvert the senses, bring audio-visual experience beyond the cinema level, and it will be a very good way to enjoy life.

2. Large screen is also required for playing games

The head mounted display of Hijing H2 has very good compatibility. It can basically support all devices with HDMI output capability, and plug and play. Therefore, XBOX, notebook, host computer, and even tablet phones with HDMI adapter can be connected at home. The author tried to connect the head mounted display of Hijing H2 directly to the computer host, Hi Mirror H2 is completely equivalent to the computer screen of the author, and the display effect is still very clear.

Playing computer games directly on the large screen of Heijing H2 will provide a very good game experience. The only thing worth mentioning is that after taking Heijing H2, you will not see any real world. Therefore, when using Heijing H2, it is more suitable to play some games that are skilled in operation. For example, in shooting games, players must be very familiar with the keyboard to reach the point of blind play, In addition, it is also a great thing to play the controller game with Hickoo H2. The following pictures are the real display interface of Hickoo H2 taken by mobile phone.

3. Sometimes solo music is not as good as public music

Not only can the head mounted display of Hikvision H2 be used independently, but also the controller of Hikvision H2 can be used independently. When the controller of Hikvision H2 is used independently, it is actually a TV box. If you still use a traditional TV in your home and there are guests, you can take out the controller of Hikvision H2 and connect it to the TV, It is also a good choice to enjoy the rich resources brought by Hi Mirror H2 with friends at home.

A little pity:

On the basis of the first generation, Hijing H2 has finally added the 9-axis gyroscope, which is unique to VR, so that Hijing H2 can also experience the fun of real VR. The author has seen the existence of VR in the system as well as in video playback. At present, the author is slightly sorry that the VR function is not open. If you want to really experience it, you have to wait for the mass production version to come out, You can only experience it after the system is upgraded.

Finally, there are complaints:

The sound quality of the earphones provided with the machine is relatively ordinary, and the wire is too long. Therefore, it is recommended that users should use their own earphones to bring better audio-visual experience.

Hi Mirror H2 is suitable for:

1. People who like to watch movies and have certain requirements for movie watching experience can enjoy the cinema level experience anytime, anywhere.

2. For those who like watching small movies in island countries, Hi Mirror H2 can definitely bring a better visual experience.

3. Game players can only know the experience of the large screen if they have experienced it. The experience of Hi Mirror H2 is far more than the effect of the 10000 yuan TV or projector.

summary

Hijing H2 is not a VR/AR product in the traditional sense, but it should be a head mounted display with its own Android system. Although Hijing is not the first head mounted display, and most of its core technologies come from foreign manufacturers, Hijing H2 is telling us with its own insistence that he only wants to make the best personal viewing experience at present, not only high-definition, immersion There is content, but not dizziness. Hi Mirror H2 has achieved it. Finally, the author looks forward to the VR experience that has not been added yet.
