Nowadays, the hottest VR equipment on the market and the most popular VR equipment is definitely a low-priced VR box. Now many factories in Shenzhen have reached a few hundred kilobytes per month, but such equipment is relatively poor in experience. The better experience is a kind of VR device that needs to connect to the host/PC, such as HTC VIVE, Oculus rift, etc. Depending on the powerful performance of the PC, such VR devices can run some large VR applications excellently, but the disadvantages are It is expensive and lacks mobile portability. In contrast, the VR all-in-one can have a high cost performance and mobile portability while ensuring a certain experience.
In the VR box market, due to the need to rely on mobile phones, this piece also brings new opportunities for mobile phone manufacturers and mobile phone chip manufacturers. The VR devices that rely on the host/PC are the world of Intel and AMD. In the VR all-in-one market, as this market is just getting up, the pattern is not fixed, so there are plenty of opportunities for many chip manufacturers.
At present, the chip manufacturers in the VR all-in-one market mainly include Ruixinwei, Quanzhi, Torxin, Intel, Samsung, Qualcomm, Nvidia and so on. Among them, Ruixin's micro-computer is relatively early to enter the VR all-in-one market. As early as last spring's Hong Kong Electronics Show, there will be a corresponding VR integrated machine product. Subsequently, there was also a launch of the VR all-in-one product based on the Quanzhi program. Due to the first-mover advantage, the current VR all-in-one market is also the chip solution of Ruixinwei and Quanzhi. In addition, there are many chip solutions for the torch core that were involved at the beginning of this year. In contrast, Intel, Samsung, Qualcomm, and Nvidia solutions have relatively few VR all-in-ones.
Ruixinwei (RK3288/RK3399)
It can be said that VR is a market that Ruixinwei attaches great importance to. In many activities this year, Ruixinwei has mainly promoted its VR solution. At yesterday's 14th China·Straits Project Achievements Fair, Ruixinwei also engaged in a 100-person VR all-in-one experience event, which is a good eye for the eye.
In terms of specific chip solutions, currently, Ruixin Micro has VR3399 and RK3288 VR integrated machine solutions for high-end and entry-level markets.
The RK3288 is based on the Cortex-A17 quad-core architecture, clocked at 1.8GHz, and the GPU is a quad-core Mali-T764. Both CPU and GPU performance are good. It is also a long-term market-proven chip.
The RK3399 uses the big.LITTLE core architecture. It has two Cortex-A72 cores and four Cortex-A53 cores. The highest frequency is up to 2.0GHz. It is a 64-bit six-core processor. The GPU uses the most powerful T880 quad core in the ARM Mali series. The overall performance is excellent.
Although the RK3399 is more powerful, the chip is not yet in mass production. Therefore, the main force of Ruixinwei in the VR market is still RK3288. It is reported that at this year's Spring Hong Kong Electronics Show, more than half of the VR all-in-one products use the Rockchip RK3288 solution.
In addition, Ruixin Micro is pushing the “three new VR industry standards†– 20ms millisecond delay, 75Hz above screen refresh rate and 1K gyro refresh rate, while claiming that its RK3399 and RK3288 support these three standards.
The preemptive promotion of standards and the practice of market card positions have also enabled Ruixin Micro to occupy a certain position in the domestic VR machine market.

According to Core Intelligence, at present, many solution providers such as Inka, Chenxin and Pinwang have launched VR all-in-one based on RK3288 solution. Among them, Chenxin also launched a public board program. According to Xu Ai, CEO of Morningstar Times, more than 30 manufacturers will launch VR products based on the morning core public board solution.
全志(H8/H8vr)
All of the current VR market mainly has two chips, H8 and H8vr.
Based on the Cortex-A7 eight-core architecture, the H8 supports 8 cores and 2.0GHz high-speed operation. It also works with the ImaginaTIon PowerVR SGX544 image processing architecture and can operate at around 700M. Although this is a chip for the box market, last year there were manufacturers that launched the VR all-in-one product based on the Quanzhi H8. For example, Uranus one, the first VR machine that was listed on the company last year, adopted the Quanzhi H8 chip solution.

At this year's COMPUTEX 2016 Taipei Computer Show, Quanzhi Technology officially released a production version of the H8vr video all-in-one solution. In fact, this H8vr is the H8 version of the vest, of course, on the basis of the previous H8, there are some optimizations for the VR machine.
According to reports, the H8vr video all-in-one solution has the characteristics of “low heat, no dizziness, extremely light and smallâ€.
According to Xinzhixun, it seems that Chenxin, Xiechuang, Xinwu, Yihengke, Future Huawen and other solution companies all have begun to adopt this chip solution.
However, after all, H8vr is not strong enough in performance, so it is just a solution for the entry-level VR video all-in-one market.
Next, Quanzhi will launch a new VR9 for the mobile VR game market in the fourth quarter of this year, and its performance will be quadrupled. In the second quarter of next year, Quanzhi will also introduce a new architecture (probably ARM's latest A73 architecture), VR10 with integrated LTE and AI modules, and its performance will be doubled compared to VR9, while power consumption will be reduced by 50. %. It is worth looking forward to.
Torch core (S900VR / V500)
Compared with Ruixin Wei and Quan Zhi who entered the VR machine market last year, in fact, the torch core also entered the market very early. At the beginning, it was cooperation with the company, but the product was delayed in mass production. So the overall delay has been delayed.
At present, the core of the VR machine market mainly has two chips S900VR and V500. To put it bluntly, these two chips are also the vest version of the S900 and S500 before the torch core. Of course, there are corresponding optimizations for the VR machine.
The Torch S900 is based on the 64-bit Cortex-A53 quad core and the GPU is the PowerVR G6230. Overall performance is not weak. The torch core said that the S900VR can meet the three technical standards of VR products. And because it is a 64-bit architecture, it still has certain advantages over other 32-bit schemes. In addition, the price of the torch core has always been very sharp, so it is quite worth looking forward to.
â–³ Ascott VR machine
The Asus VR all-in-one that was just released is the Torch S900VR solution. In addition, it is understood that the co-creation will also launch the torch core S900VR VR integrated machine.
In addition to the S900VR, the torch core also introduced the V500 for the entry-level market. The parameters are basically the same as those of the S500. Based on the Cortex-A9 quad core, the GPU is the PowerVR SGX544. The main focus is the entry-level VR video all-in-one product. It is understood that this chip will be mass-produced at the end of July.
In addition, Core Intelligence also learned that the torch core has also prepared a V700 chip for the VR machine. The specific situation is still unclear, but from the model point of view, the positioning should be between S900VR and V500.
