A New Level of Performance and Security
The PICO G3 is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon XR2 processor with 128GB storage and 6GB LPDDR4X RAM, enabling faster speed and a smoother experience.
The PICO G3 features the latest PICO OS, providing a more friendly UI to allowing users to interact with the operating system more simply, especially for those without VR experience. Its significant battery capacity comes from a 5300mAh battery and is compatible with Qualcomm Quick charge 3.0, allowing the headset to run applications non-stop for multiple hours and assuring the continuity of use in multiple business scenarios.
PICO G3 has simplified account access by enabling users to quickly launch applications without the need for account registration, making the deployment of headsets faster and easier for the enterprise. Finally, the PICO G3 features an enterprise SDK that provides low-level APIs to control the headset and implement advanced functions. The enterprise SDK supports development with Unity, Unreal, OpenXR and WebXR. Existing customers with PICO 3Dof headsets will be compatible with the G3 through their devices’ SDK.
Trusted Security
The PICO G3 comes with trusted hardware and security features through SoC with ARM Trustzone technology and enhanced kernal security. It provides support for a wide range of encryption based on Android as well as computing and algorithm security. The PICO G3 achieves a stable online service through enhanced infrastructure, data transmission and storage security and a wide range of business software and platforms are under the headset’s entire security system. All upgrades, patches and incident responses are easily managed through clear policies, procedures and requirements.
Rich Display and Balanced Design
The PICO G3’s full HD and vivid display comes through a Fresnel lens set, which suppresses distortion and dispersion and corrects the halo effect caused by stray light, common when using ordinary Fresnel lens in a dark environment. This means with the G3 lens, users can enjoy immersive audio-visual and visual experiences without being interrupted by glare. The headset’s high-density display is combined with a 4K resolution, providing unique depth, clarity and smoothness. A clearer image that reduces dizziness and eye strain comes through a 3-position IPD adjustment setting.
With a balanced formfactor that includes a front HMD and a rear battery pack, the PICO G3 is designed to feel light and comfortable and is designed to accommodate the use of glasses without any additional pressure on the face, making it more inclusive for users that need prescription glasses to see. A hygienic and detachable face cushion allows users to easily clean the face cushion on each side after it is used.
A Full Ecosystem of Resources
Advanced customization is seamlessly accessed through the PICO Business Suite, which is integrated with the PICO G3. This enables users to access extra settings and configurations for system functions and includes such features as customizing the homescreen, enabling kiosk mode, and controlling and streaming content among multiple devices in your network, increasing scalability for classroom settings or corporate training. Through the PICO Business store, businesses can access a rich content partner ecosystem that empowers business success.
