Today, we’ve put together a list of our Top 3 VR news. So let’s get into it!
SIE London Studio is working on an up-coming PS5 VR video game
SIE London, which is the company behind the video game ‘The London Heist’, recently posted a new post where they stated that they are working on their new upcoming video game project.
Unfortunately, the developer or the company didn’t tell the name of the game, and they represented it as “untitled.” The SIE team has always been at the front of PlayStation efforts. Therefore, if Sony, which is the core organization of SIE, shows a little bit of interest in multiplayer games, SIE can be the best fit for the multiplayer niche in VR games.
Since their launch in 2000, they’ve been known for developing awesome games, they’ve even developed video games for EyeToy devices such as SingStar for PS2. They also developed an AR book known as WonderBook, which was completely different from anything Sony had ever produced.
However, their last video game, known as Blood and Truth, was the most popular and most selled video game for PS4 VR headsets.
La Caixa Foundation launches a unique VR movie ‘Symphony.’
La Caixa foundation has launched its all-new movie Symphony – a Virtual Reality world featuring Gustavo Dudamel and many other artists. The Deputy Director of La Caixa Bank, Gustavo Dudamel, and Igor Studio has just launched their VR movie project to give the audience the immersive feeling of classical music.
The project includes a high-tech VR optimized hall known as Mahler Chamber Orchestra, located in Barcelona. Viewers of the movie will be seated in that three hundred square feet pop-up cinema, and they need to wear out the VR headsets, already given at their seats.
There will be a cinema which will screen a wide panoramic movie and Dolby atmos surround 7.1 sound will make you feel like everything is happening in real-time!
Once the event starts, management will require the audience to wear VR goggles, and the audience will find themselves like they’re in the virtual reality world. The music that will be playing in the hall and the movie that you will see in VR will both be in sync with each other. So that the movie visuals will act according to the beats. The project is currently in the beta stage, but soon it’ll be open for everyone!
Virtual Reality increasing empathy
To the surprise of many, researchers have found that, if you embody another person, you are more likely to end your biases against him. It is like a reset button that ends the prejudices.
How does it do that? Here is how! Researchers found that when a person embodies another person’s life, he steps into his shoes and realizes his problems. This realization alone can lead the person to end his biases like racism and sexism. Say what? Yes, it is true.
Virtual reality has endless possibilities. Since its development, it has been called by some of its pioneers the “Empathy Machine.”
