August 28 2018 - 8:00AM
Synaptics Incorporated (NASDAQ: SYNA), the leading developer of
human interface solutions, today announced sampling of its new
ClearView™ R63455 display driver IC (DDIC) featuring industry-first
dual-display 2K resolution combined with unique foveal transport
support for next generation virtual reality head-mounted displays
(HMDs). In addition, Synaptics’ new VXR7200 VR Bridge solution
provides high-speed DisplayPort connectivity supporting full VESA
DP1.4 bandwidth over tethered USB Type-C cables required for a
best-in-class HMD user experience. Combined, these solutions bring
the necessary high-performance visual support for next generation
Augmented-, Mixed-, and Virtual-Reality HMDs used for applications
including gaming, movies, commercial, medical and beyond.
“While virtual reality devices are becoming more common, issues
remain with maintaining high-resolution graphics and avoiding
motion sickness and the screen door effect. These display and
connectivity issues can hinder even the best user experience, which
is why Synaptics is focused on tackling these challenges for new
generations of HMDs and a superior HMI experience. Analyst firm IHS
Markit is predicting the world-wide VR headset installed base to
exceed 90 million units by 2021, and Synaptics is well-poised to
lead in these critical human interface advancements,” said
Huibert Verhoeven, senior vice president and general manager, IoT
Division, Synaptics.
