HP has unveiled the HP Reverb G2 Omnicept VR headset, which will hit the market next year. In addition to the previously presented headset capabilities, the new model is able to recognize facial expressions, track eye movements and the user's heart rate.
While the VR market is still in its infancy, businesses are already using VR systems to train employees. HP said its Omnicept series devices are designed to help developers and businesses create "a more human-centric virtual reality experience."
The company announced its plans for the Omnicept family at the VR/AR Global Summit. Notable in the concept of HP Omnicept is that it involves the analysis of indicators such as cognitive load or the level of mental stress of the user that occurs when performing tasks. As stated in the description of the HP Reverb G2 Omnicept, the device provides "realistic, like never before, virtual reality."
HP Reverb G2 Omnicept Features:
- The headset collects user data and tracks eye movement, pupils, heart rate and facial expressions using sensors and 4 cameras.
- HP Omnicept software uses machine learning for real-time cognitive load analysis with many features available.
- The VR experience adapts based on learning requirements, user well-being, creativity, and willingness to interact.
- The headset is compatible with Windows and SteamVR.
The previously announced HP Reverb G2 VR headset, created in collaboration with Microsoft and Valve, is equipped with two displays with a resolution of 2160 Γ 2160 pixels each and four cameras. The retail price of the device is $600.
