Customized exclusive Varmilo VA104M out of the box

Custom mechanical keyboard is a keyboard player's ultimate dream, from the axis, LED lights, keys, key caps to housing, each selected by their choice, which is undoubtedly the most romantic. But relatively high price is a lot of people run, if the keyboard can only choose the public face of mass production? To customize your equipment for the number of Varmilo VA104, seems to be in order to solve this problem.

Varmilo keyboard series consists of five, there are four key choices, of VB660M has been revealed to everyone, today is our common standard key VA104M. 104-key keyboard, there are two types of Varmilo, VA104M and VA104MS, respectively, behind which one has not been announced, compared with VA104M in fact, joined the HUB functions.

VA104M and VB660M are similar in packaging design, is also very simple and rigid paper packaging, have very good protection and waterproofing effect, of course, water is definitely not. Can see all the information from the label on the side, such as shaft body colors, caps, shell colors and models and, of course, there is a LED color label.

 

Parts package also comes with two pairs of Dragon and the Dragon bean, for easy replacement. Wire pulling what is common, say no more. Due to compatibility issues caps, also comes with a space bar wire to facilitate the replacement of other CAP sets.

 

VA104M designed for all common 104 keys, is also now quite mainstream line of products. There is not much to say in the design of places, direct line design is in line with the aesthetic standards of most people.

 

Right corner is specific, common status light is not set, but used a metal nameplate and the brand name, unfortunately does not support customization. And there's a rubber plate, used to cover up the HUB location.

 

VA104M does not use the popular key-line separation, cannot replace the wire and cable limited. Prepared for the nylon VA104M lines, are more common and more robust, but there's a certain toughness, easy to bend, there will be no Razer black widow Hale. Such as cable ties, gold-plated connector dust cover is available, also have little conscience.

 

More choices for VA104M keys, you can select laser engraving or sublimation PBT PBT, and a variety of color choices, is most abundant in the keyboard. This time choose white PBT laser engraved CAP, using pure PBT material, quite well in both feel and texture. But to ridicule is laser engraved in the font display and still has a lot of choices details can be modified.

Need to be mentioned, VA104M high piers are original factory cap height, height is Cherry, but set the OEM holes. So to replace the CAP you need to select OEM CAP, the original key cap space, and caps lock keys are not compatible with.

VA104M to balance the design and appropriate lubrication. Use hand could get an upper-medium and long bean, Dragon Compatibility well, tried several brands of batch CAP, are perfectly compatible with. Moschino online shop

 

VA104M is a built-in steel keyboard and full uses Cherry MX axis, so feel not too many can say where, after all the differences are quite small, can even be categorized as metaphysical difference. VA104M for the whole backlight design, and in part of the space bar in order to better lighting effects, built-in 3 LED lights.

Of course it is regrettable that, lighting effects only switch and brightness adjustment, in cool slightly. VA104M f built-in some multimedia keys, there was not much to say. In General, VA104M is a serious mechanical keyboard, not many cool things can be said.

 

If only it says something, then VA104M is also nothing special. But in fact, VA104M's special place in your hands before. VA104M or Varmilo series offers a variety of customizable items, can be said to be the current production in the keyboard only.

VA104M can choose axes total Cherry MX red, black, green, tea, milk, green, white, and Gray Ash and paragraphs, in which the special shaft is exclusively offered by the. While the LED colors are red, blue, white, Orange, and green. Key caps as well as laser key caps and thermal Cap followed and personalizable sublimation Cap. Is even more important, of course, you can choose some keys for the shaft, such as keyboard overall Red shaft, ESC position using the Green axis, and so on.

Of course as far as price, Varmilo VA104M on the market priced the same level compared to the mechanical keyboard, also was slightly higher, but considering the number of custom projects, there is a certain advantage.

Fingo published uSens module first experience VR gesture interaction a new

Lack of interactive mobile VR programme is already well known, and most excellent product Gear VR only turned and touch pad control. And it is learnt that Oculus Carmack in full Gear VR development inside out (from the inside) tracking system, while many other companies in this field.

On August 24, the Silicon Valley start-up uSens Ling science and technology held its first Conference in the country, officially launched its inside out optical tracking modules Fingo, mainly for the ARVR field. In addition to interacting with the Leap as main Motion gestures outside, this product also provides head-tracking function.

Three versions of the Fingo module and an integrated reference design

The Fingo module released a total of three versions: the Fingo and the Power and Color Fingo Fingo.

Fingo has two infrared cameras, resolution 640x480, 5-70 cm working distance, number 60 FPS, depending on the angle of the horizontal 140 degrees vertical 122 degrees. Official said it could make the device have 26 DOF gesture tracking (means finger freedom if all added up to a total of 26) and marker-based location tracking, and minimized consumption of battery and run.

Color Fingo has two RGB camera, resolution 1280x720, 1-3 m working distance, level 115 degree vertical FOV of 90 degrees, number 60 FPS. Fingo has increased on the basis of inside-out 6 degree of freedom tracking and ARVR scene.

Power Fingo has four cameras, two infrared two RGB, has the first two functions on the basis of integrated battery and Gao Tongxiao Dragon processor.

Official show of machine design

In addition to the above three products, the company has also introduced a reference design for mobile VR machine using Gao Tongxiao 820 processor, 1440*1440 dual screen and Fingo module, integrated, with 26 degrees gestures, 6 degrees of freedom head tracking as well as AR overlay function.

Experience Demo

Gesture interaction Demo

Conference uSens on its three main functions-the gesture interaction, head tracking, and AR overlay function, is shown. Demo look good fluency. GUCCI iPhone 6 plus

Small series of on site also experienced the gesture interaction and head tracking these two functions, only to find no Demo demonstrates so well. First hand gesture tracking often appeared lost and delayed significantly, or when manually in the virtual world of delay occurs when the hand moves.

Small series of experiences with Fingo VR helmet

Reasons leading to experience than the Demo, staff explained: first experience the environment is noisy, so causing loss of track; overheat down cause of delay is the mobile phone. Small series of interviews on these issues after the meeting when uSens co-founder and COO-Chi, he says, experience caused by ambient noise is the cause of the problem, and the company has developed a noise-filtering technology, ambient noise can filter 90%, under various environmental conditions to ensure a good experience. But because the technology refresh rate is not good enough, and therefore no experience.

Shi Chi said Fingo module tracking accuracy of 0.1 mm, power 1.1W, Leap only half of the Motion, and will be further reduced in the future.

It is to be noted that, on-site experience products are phone boxes, mobile phone is Samsung S6 or S7. One machine only displayed helmets only appears in the Demo of the PC platform.

Shi Chi the venue prepared for the equipment apologized in private, he said experience than originally expected, if you are more mobile, less continuous experience fever block situation, field experience will be better. In addition, he also expressed the ambient noise and heat problems currently 0 in similar products is a common phenomenon in perspective.

Time to market and developer program

B2B2C is uSens the launch of several products, the company itself is not a consumer-oriented product, but with the manufacturers to apply their technology to the helmet above. Shi Chi said providing modules to the customer the price can be as low as $ 30, and will be further reduced in the future, modules is open book.

On cooperation, helmet manufacturers, vendors, as well as one of the most important of authorized vendors, uSens has not been released, however, said Shi Chi-related products probably saw in October. GUCCI iPhone 6+

Developer, uSens the officially announced Open Beta SDK and uDev developer program launched, offering a full-service developer kits. At present, the software system based on mobile and PC end Unity of 3D,Java,C++ development, follow-up will support more development platforms.

In addition to the VR, the company is also involved in the AR field, Shi Chi said there are some AR seeking cooperation hardware manufacturers in the country, but did not specifically announce news. He also said his own SLAM algorithm can be ranked into the top five in the world in the field.

USens was established in 2013, the main development Inside out tracking technology solutions should be used in ARVR. In June, the company announced this year fosun brothers lead investor $ 20 million series a financing.

In the field of mobile VR interactive technology, uSens provides a more complete solution, but the major manufacturers of mobile VR, including Gear Google Daydream and VR, are developing their own means of interaction, uSens solution can be applied to how broad remains to be seen.

The industry NVIDIA teamed up Thomas g bet on artificial intelligence the first

Introduction:

NVIDIA is the world leader of programmable graphics processing technologies, focused on building to enhance personal and professional experience of interactive computing platform products, and positioning itself as an artificial intelligence chip manufacturer. Juicy Couture sale Juicy Couture sale

OpenAI: is a non-profit's artificial intelligence (AI) research institutes. By Tesla Electric Company and United States space exploration company SpaceX founder Mr MASKEY, well-known incubator y Combinator CEO Sam Altman was proclaimed, and Netflix, Reed Hastings, Peter Thiel, co-founder of PayPal and other Silicon Valley giants, to the OpenAI together invest US $ 1 billion in last December.

Last week, NVIDIA (NVIDIA) CEO Jen-Hsun Huang in San Francisco to OpenAI personally delivered the world's first single-chassis super computer deep learning--NVIDIA DGX-1.

NVIDIA (NVIDIA) DGX-1 super computer

DGX-1 super computer with up to 170TFLOPS of half-precision floating-point computation, equivalent to 250 traditional servers, deep learning and training can be 75 times faster times, CPU performance boost 56 times, bid $ 129,000.

NVIDIA (NVIDIA) CEO Jen-Hsun Huang: "first in the world specifically designed for artificial intelligence to create super computer is located in a focus on the open artificial intelligence research lab, this is heaven. "

NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang to musk display NVIDIA OpenAI investor DGX-1

OpenAI team: "our goal is to maximize human well-being, promote the development of artificial intelligence, not for economic returns. Since our research from economic bondage, we can better focus on the human being in its favor. We believe that artificial intelligence is an extension of the human mind, in a liberal spirit, it should be used as widely as possible. "

Sign on the OpenAI team in the chassis

OpenAI research scientist Ilya Sutskever: "DGX-1 is a huge breakthrough. It not only allows us to explore previously unknown areas and issues, but also provides us with unparalleled performance. "

Depth of machine learning based on the training of huge amounts of data, so computers capable of computing, machine learning capabilities will be greatly enhanced, will be rapid human artificial intelligence.

OpenAI Andrej Karpathy research scientist: "If now we just use dialog data last month on the Reddit to train, then we can use a few years before the dialog data for training. "

At present, major tech giants have set up camp in the field of artificial intelligence to speed up arrangement.

NVIDIA rival Intel was "menacing". Intel has missed the Smartphone wave, a complete Miss of "mobile Internet" opportunities. Intel would never miss this wave of artificial intelligence.

Currently NVIDIA is in the high growth is mainly based on its GPU chip applications in artificial intelligence and support, NVIDIA now with Facebook, Google, Microsoft and other giant launched a cooperation, the leader in the field of artificial intelligence research has begun to gradually adopt NVIDIA GPU chip.

Facebook Research Director Yann LeCun: "NVIDIA GPU are accelerating the process of the development of artificial intelligence. As neural networks become more and more, we need not only a faster GPU (with larger capacity, faster memory), and the need to boost inter-GPU communications speed and being able to take advantage of low precision arithmetic hardware. It was Pascal's features. "

However, Google, Facebook, Microsoft and other big brothers big chip market is still the Intel data center, but as the customer needs to expand the AI world, customers will be inevitable risks of loss. If Intel does not conform to the tide of artificial intelligence trends and adjust the strategy, then lost in the chip market data center of the future will most likely NVIDIA.
