HTC VivePort M: A New Hub For VR Content

Virtual Reality is growing up with a lightning speed in this technical era. It is getting too much advanced and the leading companies like Google, Samsung, and many other companies have launched their own VR headsets by which a user can experience a high quality of virtual experience. But then the question arises “Where can we find VR content?”.

Many websites and portals are providing VR services like Youtube etc. But none of these are specially designed to deliver VR content. For this, HTC, the Taiwanese techno manufacturing and developing firm has now come up with a new storefront dubbed as VivePort M. The VivePort M is a new VR hub which is specially designed to deliver Virtual Reality content to the Android users.

Basically, an Android user desires to purchase VR content from both via smartphone and via VR headset, and this platform created by HTC will not only provide VR content with an ease but will also encourage VR developers to make this field more versatile by providing numerous VR applications and other files.

Currently, a VR platform named as Steam is basically used by the people to experience VR games. The Steam provides about 300 VR games, by which users manage their VR experiences. But, if we talk about VivePort, it is a platform which provides VR content other than games, like 360 videos, educational content and much more.

HTC, while referring its new VR platform stated, “Viveport Arcade will make it much easier for VR arcade operators to legally acquire the most compelling VR content available, while the system itself will allow both operators and developers to accurately share the revenue from end users. Pilot programs for Viveport Arcade have already been deployed in a number of locations in the last one to two months and will soon expand to hundreds of gaming centers, amusement parks and karaoke bars across China and globally.”

HTC previously has been criticized for an investment loss in VR content sector. The company has also announced earning of USD 100 million in past April. Currently, the Viveport M platform is available only in China for mobile developers but is expected to be available worldwide soon.
