▼ A big wave of VR applications is about to hit Google open VR platform Daydream from Baidu VR Google’s virtual reality platform, Daydream, has been restricting developers’ qualifications since its debut in November last year. This week, Google announced that it has opened Daydream development rights to all developers. In May 2016, Google announced at the Google I/O conference in San Francisco, USA that Android N, the latest Android system, will provide virtual reality (VR) mode. Based on Android N, Google has created a complete platform and ecosystem for virtual reality. Google Virtual Reality vice president Clay Bavor announced the news, saying that Daydream is a high quality Android-based virtual reality platform. The platform consists of three parts: the core Daydream-Ready phone and its operating system, helmets and controllers for use with mobile phones, and applications that support Daydream's platform ecosystem. On November 10, 2016, Daydream was officially released as a virtual reality (VR) platform. However, Daydream app development permissions are limited to a small number of developers. Although this approach allows Google to work closely with developers to ensure the quality of the Daydream platform, it limits the amount of content that users can download on Google Play. After limiting developers to develop Daydream for a few months, Google is finally letting go of the previous restrictions, allowing anyone to submit apps or related experiences for the company's mobile VR platform. Applications and games developed by Jaunt, Inside, Lucid Sight, and others are the first in the Google VR app store. Now, Google is ready to announce some of the core requirements for development to enable Daydream and developers to grow together. Most of these regulations are concerned about the comfort of the user during use. Daydream is currently only available on a small number of mobile phones (such as Google Pixel and Pixel XL), but more and more mobile phones are getting Daydream certification - users will be able to experience high quality, low latency virtual reality on multiple mobile devices . Google’s news will surely bring more apps into Google’s stores, which will also provide a lot of testing opportunities for the first batch of Daydream users. For Google, although competing platforms such as Samsung Gear VR have developed mobile VR content for more than a year, due to the huge coverage and strong compatibility of Google Play Store, Google is bound to be able to quickly catch up with the first mobile VR applications. echelon.
