FAQs

EnvisionVR’s experience is different in 3 primary ways.  

Firstly, the ability to walk around freely in 1:1 scale as though you were exploring a physical space. Through our unique process we can preserve extremely high quality on mobile devices, meaning you do not have to compromise by tethering the headset to a computer or reducing the quality of the model.   

Secondly, the technology is accessible through mobile devices. This feature allows the user to explore the design either with our Clickable or Walkthrough Tours. The Walkthrough tour allows the mobile device to act as a window into the virtual space. Simply move the phone or tablet side to side or walk to explore in 1:1 scale.

Finally, EnvisionVR’s software allows collaboration both face-to-face and remotely. The tablet can be connected to either a VR headset or a mobile device and controls that user’s experience. Thus, the tablet guides the user through the model and keeps them in control of the process. Our audio technology allows all parties to communicate when in different locations.  

Our experience is completely flexible and can be set up in whatever space you have available. The larger the space you have the more of the virtual space you can view at once. We recommend a 4x4m area for the best viewing option.

Yes. EnvisionVR’s app can be downloaded onto Oculus headsets through Applabs.  

The VR headsets are designed to be worn with and without glasses. If you can see 2 metres in front of you without glasses, then the VR headset should be worn without. 

If you cannot see 2 metres in front of you without your glasses the VR headset can be placed over them. A glasses spacer is provided and can be fitted to the headset to prevent glasses from scratching the headset lenses. Larger framed glasses may not fit inside the headset, and we recommend wearing contact lenses where possible. 

People rarely get sick in the VR due to the headset’s 6 degrees of freedom tracking. The first VR headsets offered 3 degrees of freedom tracking, meaning you could look up, down and side to side in 360 degrees. Motion sickness in VR is caused by conflicting signals in the brain, for example seeing yourself move through a virtual world but being stationary in the real one. 

6 degrees of freedom tracking allows users greater freedom of movement as the headset tracks your physical movement back and forth, up and down and side to side in the virtual world. This reduces the feeling of disorientation minimising conflicting signals in your brain. 

No, unfortunately, the cameras on the VR headset cannot be used in direct sunlight. However, the Walkthrough tour on mobile devices can be used outside. 

If you have a headset, phone or tablet you can download the Envision VR app and experience our demo projects from the Oculus, Google Play and Apple stores.

EnvisionVR also has a studio where you can experience the VR, or a member of our sales team can come to your office to show you, our technology. Just contact us at sales@envisionvr.com.au.

EnvisionVR’s software works on all high-end, modern tablets from 2018 onwards. For the best experience in our AR Walkthrough Mode we suggest the new iPad Pro released in 2020 which utilises lidar scanning.
