At the CES 2024 conference, Sony announced the development of an immersive space content creation system, which includes an XR headset equipped with a high-resolution micro-OLED display and a pair of controls for intuitive interaction with 3D objects and precise pointing. device. The system is mainly used to support creators in complex 3D content creation, and is expected to cooperate with 3D software developers in the entertainment and industrial design fields.
Sony announces development of 3D content creation system, including XR headset and interactive controller
Sony’s latest 3D content creation system includes an XR headset and a pair of interactive controllers. The XR headset is equipped with a 1.3-inch 4K high-definition OLED micro-display, which can render the texture of 3D objects and the details of characters’ facial expressions in real-time, high-resolution and realistically. In order to improve comfort, the head-mounted display brings the comfort and stability required for long-term use by fine-tuning the balance of the center of gravity of the device and the cushion design and materials that are in direct contact with the user’s head. Additionally, a flip mechanism for the display portion allows creators to easily and seamlessly move between physical and virtual spaces without the need for time-consuming recalibration when frequently disassembling and wearing the entire device.
A total of 6 photographic lenses and sensors are also equipped on the headset, providing outstanding video perspective and spatial recognition capabilities. The device is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 platform, the company’s latest XR processor. The processor unleashes the power of 4K OLED microdisplays to deliver stunning image quality, enable user and spatial tracking, create seamless XR experiences, and provide a high-performance platform for creators’ creative workflows.
The system comes with a ring controller that allows users to intuitively manipulate the 3D objects they see in the virtual world. There is also a ring-type controller that allows creators to use the controller and keyboard to create in the virtual space while wearing the XR headset. Creators can not only see true-to-scale 3D models in the XR environment on high-resolution displays, but can also create and modify 3D models in it. Through integration with third-party 3D creation applications, it also supports remote real-time review between locations, making it the most intuitive and immersive tool in the spatial content creation process.
Sony also simultaneously released new technologies to support spatial content creation workflow and improve creative quality, and promote the application of 3D CG in various creative fields. The mobile motion capture system “mocopi” features a small and lightweight sensor and a dedicated smartphone application, using Sony’s own technology to achieve full-body motion tracking. Spatial Reality Displays provide highly realistic 3D content that enables spatial content creation and viewing without the use of special glasses or virtual reality (VR) devices. By introducing this system and collaborating with 3D creation software developers, Sony hopes to further enhance the capabilities of spatial content creators, blur the boundaries between the physical and virtual realms, and provide a more immersive creative development experience.
The system will be launched later in 2024, and Sony and its partners will announce more details later, including specifications, release date and region, selling price, sales channels and software compatibility.
