"Virtual reality by domestic and international each technologies just are valued, near future of NASA of American spaceflight bureau also states the height of pair of virtual reality technologies pays close attention to, the mark that thinks virtual reality future will become NASA matchs one of.

Bureau of American space navigation (NASA) it is current one of the biggest proponents of VR and AR technology.

NASA has sent the MR helmet HoloLens of Microsoft to international space station, come to HTC Vive and union of photograph of Manus VR glove train astronaut.

These remain the inchoate stage of VR and AR technology now, company and orgnaization can send the use that has creativity more showpiece gradually. Nevertheless NASA believes, inside 10 years, VR/AR/MR matchs the bid that makes this orgnaization stuff.

In an article of this week, NASA thinks to be enmeshed the latent capacity of type technology is infinite. Ed McLarney is the IT expert of NASA Langley, he is the first technology of research virtual reality.

He expresses, “ is enmeshed type technology is becoming general rise, we hope to help employee think, how the way with on the safe side is the oldest change favourable geographical position to use this technology. Future is here, we must hold it. This is the opportunity that changes game regulation again. ”

A kind of means of NASA use HoloLens is the Sidekick project that uses HoloLens. This project can let NASA check all sorts of methods, beyond Cheng assists astronaut and the efficiency that promote astronaut to finish the job.

Josh Kinne of assistant manager of project of bureau of project of NASA Langley aviation says, “ this will become like other tool. The way that changes us to design a thing with CAD tool is same. This develops greatly the next time namely. This will make the way with visible information, and will make the standard tool that we use the next inside 10 years. ”

NASA was not to use 9 kinds of helmet only, testing all types however, oculus Rift, HTC Vive and PlayStation VR are in the test, will check the chief short-term aim of VR Integration with this.

Kinne expresses, “ virtual reality and enhance reality once very costly, the word that single perhaps student should use is very difficult. Hardware is already commercial now, this is meant, even if have the basiccest knowledge only to these 3D tools, you also are applying actually or significant content is created in research development. ”

McLarney says, this technology does not need “ him NASA is invented. Industry and research organization are our research and development, we need to think how to apply it. ”

“ we think, inside 20 years, the technology will accomplish our unthinkable today thing. ”
