HTC Vive is a Virtual Reality head-mounted display developed by HTC and Valve. The HMD was announced on March 1, 2015. Similar to Oculus Rift and unlike Samsung Gear VR, HTC Vive requires connecting to a PC, not Smartphone, for its processing. Development Kit is scheduled to be released in Spring 2015.
Hardware
The HTC Vive requires a connection to a PC, preferably a gaming PC with good specs, similar to Oculus Rift. It does not use a Smartphone as its display or for processing. The display of HTC Vive has a resolution of 2400 x 1080 or 1200 x 1080 per eye with the refresh rate of 90 FPS. The HMD has 6 degrees of freedom tracking with the help of Gyroscope, Accelerometer and Laser Position Sensor within the device and 2 SteamVR Base Stations externally, around the room. The VR Base Stations allow you to be accurately tracked within a 15 feet by 15 feet space. HTC Vive has the ability to transform your entire room into a Holodeck, allowing for a full room VR experience.
HTC has promised that HTC Vive will use specially designed wireless, VR controllers in both hands.
