Varjo, a provider of high-performance XR/VR hardware and software, is now a Unity Verified Solution Partner – the first official XR/VR hardware provider to join this exclusive program. Unity is a leading platform for creating and operating interactive, real-time 3D content. The partnership between Varjo and Unity will now enable more professionals to build photorealistic 3D experiences.
As a Unity VSP, all Varjo headsets – including the newly released Varjo XR-3 and VR-3 – now have complete, verified and seamless compatibility with the latest Unity releases. Unity developers can now take full advantage of Varjo’s virtual reality (VR) and extended reality (XR) capabilities such as human-eye resolution visual fidelity (at over 70 pixels per degree), photorealistic video pass-through mixed reality, real-time chroma keying, and more.
XR technologies are delivering dramatic advances in capability at increasingly affordable prices. For more on this topic, read Emerging X-Realities.
“Unity developers can now be sure their high-resolution, detailed environments and experiences will display beautifully on Varjo devices, and trust that their applications will work seamlessly with these groundbreaking headsets,” said Timoni West, Vice President, Augmented & Virtual Reality at Unity.
Thanks to its low-latency video pass-through, the Varjo XR-3 device is capable of portraying all aspects of XR, from virtual reality to photorealistic augmented and mixed reality, and offering combined AR/VR support in Unity.
Marcus Olsson, Head of Software Partnerships at Varjo, commented: “We’re confident that our partnership can help drive a paradigm mindset shift from developing real-time 3D content, towards building true extended reality experiences where users can no longer tell the difference between what is real and what is virtual.”
In turn, Varjo is inviting all Unity developers, enterprise integrators and software providers to join its Software Partner Program, enabling significant discounts and benefits, including a free Varjo device to kickstart developing photorealistic VR/XR experiences.
