 The Razr is a company and brand known players, especially those who bet on the PC as their primary gaming platform. The market for peripherals is one in which technology best moves, but the company went to the Consumer Electronic Show show that you have far more comprehensive plans.

The goal here is to try to unify the virtual reality of the market before it to begin to disperse – and at a time that are emerging various projects and initiatives in the area.
 

The OSVR would be a unique development platform, but which bear different game engines, different virtual reality goggles and different peripheral devices. The Unreal Engine 4 and Unity 3D engines are among those that will be supported.
 

To further strengthen this effort the Razr also announced the Hacker Dev Kit, a virtual reality glasses that just serve to the development of new experiences and adaptation projects that may already be in progress. The price of 199 dollars, 150 euros, is “friend” of programmers.
