Xiaomi has joined the virtual reality land-grab with a cheap smartphone-based headset, the Mi VR Play, which pits the Chinese mobile maker against its sometime partner Google and further hampers Facebook’s hopes of dominating the VR market with its Oculus headsets. 中国手机制造商小米(Xiaomi)发布了基于智能手机的廉价虚拟现实(VR)头盔——小米VR眼镜玩具版(Mi VR Play)，与曾经的合作伙伴谷歌(Google)展开对垒，同时会进一步遏制Facebook以Oculus头盔称霸VR市场的希望。 More than 1m consumers have already signed up to test Xiaomi’s headset, available as a beta version in China practically free of cost at Rmb1 ($0.15). It will be tested by “tens of thousands” of users, according to a spokesperson, before a full launch in coming months. Partners contributing content to its Mi VR app include glossy magazine Condé Nast Traveller and Chinese video side Youku. 申请小米VR头盔公测的用户已超过百万，中国用户只需支付1元人民币（合0.15美元）就能获得测试版，这几乎相当于免费。小米资讯发言人表示，小米VR头盔将接受数万名用户测试，几个月后再正式发布。向其小米VR应用贡献内容的合作伙伴包括时尚杂志《悦游》(Condé Nast Traveller)以及中国视频平台优酷(Youku)。 |
