Google launched the Daydream View head-end display at the end of last year. As a smartphone clip-on head, View is a relatively simple device that leaves most of the work to connected smartphones. But the latest recruitment announcement shows that Google is producing a large number of new AR/VR hardware.
In the last Xiaobian review of Google's recruitment notice, the company is looking for a series of talents related to new hardware, including an engineering project expert who can “multiple hardware projects from prototyping to mass productionâ€; and Hardware engineers with rich overseas supply chain resources are responsible for consumer hardware platforms.
Extended reading: Google releases new recruits or develops new consumer AR-VR hardware
According to Google's new job announcement released last month, we can see that the company still hopes to expand its internal team to support the new hardware plan. Previous work announcements focused on the engineering of new AR/VR products, and the latest hiring indicates that the product is ready to move from the R&D stage to formal consumer devices.
In the past two days, Google began recruiting a "Technical Lead Product Design Engineer" and a "Hardware Validation Manager" responsible for the company's AR/VR plan.
The former's mission is to "work with (industrial design) and human factors teams to define a new architecture for virtual reality products" and to "travel on demand to [...] overseas manufacturing facilities."
As for the latter, Google hopes that he/she can “lead and manage the team responsible for overall hardware system validation and quality optimization of wearable and virtual reality/augmented reality hardware products†and “can work with internal test engineers, partner engineers, and Contract manufacturers collaborate to produce products on a large scale and assist products in maintaining work."
Google’s VR Headset Daydream View is a relatively simple device that includes a shell, a pair of lenses, an NFC chip, and a simple controller (the heads-up itself does not even require a power supply). So, why is Google recruiting these new hardware talents, given that this headline is already on the market?
One of the speculations is that Google is developing an integrated VR headline, and the market has long been rumored about this. The integrated head is equipped with all the necessary components, including computing hardware and battery packs. Devices such as this can achieve inside-out location tracking. Google is no stranger to this. They have practical experience in the Tango plan.
Compared with smartphone-based VR headsets, the integrated VR headset has several major advantages, especially in thermal envelopes, computing power, displays, and ergonomics. However, price is a possible limiting factor.
Of course, Google’s new device may not be an integrated VR head-up, but it can be used as an upgraded version based on the head-mounted smartphone. New hardware can integrate more substantial onboard hardware (such as additional sensors) and other features (such as hand tracking and location tracking), while embedded smartphones can continue to be the head of the "brain."
Another reasonable guess is: The next generation of Google glasses. The plan has already been exposed as early as 2015.
Obviously, no matter what kind of hardware Google is developing, their AR/VR hardware talent pool is rapidly expanding, and the same is expanding Google’s ambitions for VR/AR.
