\u25cfAbout FirstVR<\/h5>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nFirstVR is a controller and goggle set device that can easily provide VR \/ AR experience on a smartphone. By winding an armband type controller on your arm, you can operate your VR \/ AR with your hand as a controller. It is light and compact so even people who have never experienced VR or AR can easily try it.<\/p>\n

– Features of First VR<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Optical active sensor mounted on the controller makes its own arm a controller<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The feature of FirstVR is the muscle displacement sensor (Optical Active Sensing) mounted on the controller. Just wrapping the armband type controller on the arm, the sensor detects the arm’s muscle movement (displacement) and reflects it on the VR \/ AR. By doing so, you can freely control VR and AR with your own hand movement without using a controller on hand.<\/p>\n

2. Set of light and compact controller and goggles<\/strong><\/p>\n

FirstVR is a set product of controller and goggles. It is a light and compact body that you can enjoy without limitation of location. If you wear an armband type controller on your arm and apply goggles, you will soon be able to experience the new sense of VR \/ AR.<\/p>\n

3. Feel free to play with your own smartphone<\/strong><\/p>\n
