Every week, we bring you the latest and most surprising updates in VR, AR, and AI. Stay ahead of the curve and understand the technologies that are shaping our future.
Get ready to be amazed by what’s new in the world of virtual reality! What caught your eye this week?
Oculus Unveils New Wireless Headset and Controller
At the recent Oculus Connect event, the company introduced a new stand-alone headset called Oculus Go. This lightweight device features a soft mesh fabric on the face interface for enhanced comfort, along with a high-resolution display (2560 x 1440) and built-in audio drivers. The new controllers, based on the Santa Cruz design, support 6DOF movement, offering a more immersive experience. These devices will be available early next year, priced around $200, with developer kits shipping soon.
VR Adult Content Surpasses Gaming in Popularity
While many think of VR as a gaming platform, the most popular content is actually adult entertainment. According to VRPorn data, about 60% of top VR sites are adult platforms. Search trends also show that adult content outperforms games and regular videos. This is partly due to the low entry barrier—users can access VR content via affordable cardboard headsets without needing expensive hardware.
Apple CEO Tim Cook: AR Tech Still Needs Work
Apple's CEO, Tim Cook, recently mentioned that current technology isn't yet advanced enough to create the perfect AR glasses. He highlighted challenges like field of view and display quality but expressed confidence in Apple's future AR products. The goal is to deliver an unmatched user experience.
VR Offers Effective Treatment for Phobias
Virtual reality is proving to be a powerful tool for treating mental health issues such as acrophobia (fear of heights) or animal phobias. Companies like Limbix are using VR to simulate real-life scenarios, allowing patients to confront their fears safely. This therapy, based on exposure treatment, helps users face their fears without leaving their homes.
VR Games Can Help Treat Amblyopia and Strabismus
Vivid Vision uses VR to treat vision conditions like amblyopia and strabismus. Their system replaces traditional treatments like eye patches and drops, offering personalized game-based therapy. It works with devices like Oculus Rift, Gear VR, and Daydream, making vision therapy more engaging and effective.
Millimeter-Wave Chips Could Revolutionize Wireless VR
Researchers at Columbia University are developing a new wireless VR system using millimeter-wave frequencies. This technology could reduce congestion, boost bandwidth, and enable faster data transfer. The result is a more efficient and cost-effective wireless headset, potentially changing how we experience VR.
SteamVR Takes a Step Forward with New Hardware
Valve has continued its push into VR with new hardware, including the Lighthouse tracking system and Knuckles controllers. They’ve also developed specialized lenses that improve image clarity and reduce distortion. These components are designed to work with both LCD and OLED screens, providing a wider field of view. Valve is working closely with manufacturers to ensure top-tier performance.
Experience NBA Games in VR
The NBA is bringing the excitement of live games to VR through NBA League Pass. Fans can now watch games in immersive 360-degree views using platforms like Gear VR, Daydream, and even Microsoft MR. The Houston Rockets and Dallas Mavericks will offer free VR previews starting October 21st. Imagine being on the court—this is the future of sports viewing.

PZT Piezoelectric Elements
Piezoelectric ceramic are
a ferroelectric compound. This means, that the electro-mechanical conversion
process for producing a motion is related a kind of self-enhancement process
based on an internal reorganization of the material's structure. This self-enhancement
process results in the higher piezoelectrical efficiency of PZT when compared to natural materials
like quartz.
Piezoelectric ceramic are
generally manufactured from PZT (Pb
- lead, Zr - zirconium, Ti - titanium). The PZT- formulation can be varied with a variety of dopants allowing
for a broad spectrum of material properties optimized for different application
profiles.
Yuhai Company is
able to manufacture piezoelectric
ceramic elements in a wide range of shapes and sizes. piezoelectric discs, piezo
rings, piezo plates, and piezo tubes (cylinders) is the main
shapes Yuhai Company most frequently manufactures, we also have a great deal of
experience manufacturing hemispheres,
trapezoids and other customized shapes.
If the listed shapes and sizes was not the
elements you are looking for, please contact us for more information. We can
work with you to create the correct shape and size for you.Piezoelectric Elements,Piezo Ceramic Disc,Piezoelectric Ceramic Discs,Pzt Element
