First Snapdragon-powered, Light Weight Stand-Alone Headset Available for Hands-on Demonstration at E3 in Booth #2800
Pico Interactive, Inc., creators of the upcoming Pico Neo – a stand-alone virtual reality (VR) head mounted display (HMD) system – will showcase the Pico Neo at this year’s Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3). E3 attendees will be the first in North America to experience the Pico Neo and Pico’s immersive VR suite of gaming and entertainment applications. Pico Interactive, Inc. will demonstrate Pico Neo at E3 from Tuesday, June 14 to Thursday, June 16 in the South Hall, booth 2800.
The Pico Neo is a stand-alone VR system taking advantage of Android 6.0, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor and two 1k AMOLED displays, allowing users to witness blazing-fast experiences at high resolutions. Unique to Pico Neo is a two-part structure with the device’s mainframe resting within a gamepad to give users a lighter mobile VR headset experience than other headsets.
“The Pico Neo is a substantial leap in VR technology, featuring the portability of smartphones and tablets and combining stand-alone functionality and the high performance of dedicated systems through the Snapdragon 820 processor,” said Henry Zhou, CEO of Pico Interactive, Inc. “As we move towards launch, E3 represents a significant milestone in the platform’s development and we are quite eager to see how the virtual reality and video game community embraces and experiences our flagship product.”
The Pico Neo is set to launch at retail in late 2016. E3 attendees will get the first-look opportunity with the Pico Neo hardware along with a selection of gaming and entertainment applications.
We hope to bring you a full report on the Pico Neo when GAMbIT takes the floor at E3 next month.
