AMD is not for the first time makes it clear, it sees great potential in VR. Nitero technology acquisition is another step towards the development of new technology.
Компания AMD приобрела интеллектуальную собственность и ключевую технологию у компании Nitero, pioneer in the millimeter waveband, which should be used in future generations of virtual sets and augmented reality (Accessibility и AR). The acquisition will create an even more exciting and interesting solutions in the field of VR.
"Unwanted cables remain a significant barrier to the penetration path virtual reality. - said Mark Papermaster), CTO and senior vice president of AMD. - Our recently acquired VR technology is used in particular for, To cope with this problem and is another example of, as AMD makes long-term investments in technology, to create solutions with high computing power and optimum quality graphics, that will provide more virtualized reality. "
Nitero developed a system, which allows to form a beam of millimeter waves circuit, to solve problems, related ecosystem VR and AR. This technology uses a 60-gigahertz frequency band, and thus it has the potential to provide support for multi-transmission with low latency in a medium-sized room VR.
Characteristics beamforming eliminates the problem, associated with the requirement to remain in a straight line between the transmitters, Traditional systems that use high frequency millimeter wave. As a result, this technology has the chance to press the wire VR system and allow users even easier to dive into a virtual world or extended.
