It’s not an everyday news to see such a product launched in Malaysian grounds. Today, the OSVR HDK 2 is officially launched in 13 countries within the APAC region – Malaysia included.

The OSVR HDK2 is the open-sourced VR kit made by the largest  open-sourced VR consortium in the world, and they’re currently competing against the Oculus Rift and also the HTC Vive. The HDK 2 is equipped with custom designed SLR grade lenses for clearer more vibrant images and a 90hz low-persistence OLED, RGB dual-display with a total resolution of 2160×1200 (1080p per eye). It also includes unique IQE (Image Quality Enhancer) technology for a reduced screen door effect. Capable of displaying VR experiences at 90 frames-per-second, the visual experience on the HDK 2 is comparable to the best virtual reality headsets available now.

It is also modular allowing for 3rd party customization, and Christopher Mitchell, OSVR Lead, said that “The HDK 2 is engineered to deliver a visual experience on par with the industry’s best while keeping it at a more affordable cost point in order to bring VR technology to more people.”
