Expanding the list even further in 2018 is the Asus Windows
Mixed Reality Headset set to launch sometime during March 2018. The new headset
will be Asus’s first mixed reality device and is expected to be made available
before the end of March priced somewhere between US$ 300 and US$ 500. Although this
has not yet been confirmed by Asus and official pricing is expected to be
released closer to the official launch date.
The Asus Windows Mixed Reality Headset is equipped
with dual 1440 x 1440 pixel displays and offers users a refresh rate of 90 Hz.
The headset is also equipped with an adjustable head strap to provide a
customisable comfortable fit as well as 3.5 mm audio jacks, Bluetooth
connectivity, a USB 3.0 port and an HDMI 2.0 port.
Similar to other Microsoft Windows mixed reality
headsets currently available and launched late last year the Asus headset
provides 6 degrees of freedom thanks to its integrated motion tracking
technology. The headset also comes supplied with two wireless motion
controllers allowing users to make the most of the latest virtual reality and
augmented reality applications, games and experiences. As soon as more
information becomes available closer to the launch date, we will keep you up to
speed as always.
