The Virtual Reality Storm Starting to Roll In
ACCESSWIRE - Fri Dec 19, 9:37AM CST
WHITEFISH, MT / ACCESSWIRE / December 19, 2014 / What were once tiny Virtual Reality (VR) clouds and ripples off in the distance started by nascent technologies years ago have been chummed by more advanced technologies and seem to be growing into little waves today. There's no whitecaps or cresting waves and certainly not a VR hurricane by any stretch, but a steady flow of VR in tech and financial headlines lends to the idea that there is going to be a splash on the consumer shoreline in the not-too-distant future. Just take a look at some of the recent developments. Private cinematic VR company Jaunt, who recently raised $27.8 million in a funding in which investors like Google Ventures (NASDAQ: GOOGL) participated, is working on VR movies spanning from war to sci-fi to horror flicks. The company certainly came in above the fold with the recent release of a VR video featuring Sir Paul McCartney playing the hit "Live and Let Die" in 360-degree fashion and immersive sound. Classic rock band The Who is working with U.K.-based developer Immersive and Universal Music on an app for Facebook's (NASDAQ: FB) Oculus Rift headset in celebration of the band's 50th anniversary. The app is slated to cover a full gamut of immersive experiences for Who fans, ranging from scrolling through lyrics to being on stage during a concert. Fidelity Investments has launched "StockCity," a VR environment where users can monitor their portfolios where the height of buildings will change based upon Wall Street performance.

Marriott, Coke and Others Utilizing Oculus Rift as Virtual Reality Could Transform Industries
ACCESSWIRE - Thu Nov 06, 8:40AM CST
Whitefish, MT / November 6, 2014 / Most people have seen a "virtual tour" of something, such as videos of houses for sale on Zillow (NYSE:Z) or the new virtual tour of the One World Trade Center observatory, but that technology still doesn't really give a person a feeling of being there because it still lacks a full perspective. Imagine when the user is in full control; able to back up, look down and around and the video responds accordingly. What about any audio, which still lacks direction in existing so-called virtual tours? That's what virtual reality (VR) is going to bring to the table and it's going to transform much more than just gaming with its endless possibilities and applications.

Next Galaxy Corp, Himax and More Set to Grow from Facebook's Oculus Rift Acquisition
ACCESSWIRE - Thu Aug 21, 11:54AM CDT
Whitefish, MT / August 21, 2014 / When Facebook (NASDAQ: FB) agreed to pay $2 billion to acquire Oculus VR in March, a deal that closed last month, the tech and investment world was set abuzz about whether or not the purchase made any sense. At first, sentiment seemed to lean towards the idea that the social media giant was out of its mind. The needle seems to be shifting now, though, to the side of it being a prescient move that is aligning Facebook to be ahead of the curve in developing its own platform for the next generation of communication and interaction.
