HTC will showcase new headsets at Vivecon

New York, May 2, 2021

HTC’s confirmed on its website that it will unveil several new VR headsets during its Vivecon VR showcase next month. Earlier reports suggested that HTC might unveil an official all-in-one headset during the free event, which takes place May 11-12.

The Vivecon website also advertises new VR software and platforms , although there are no details. Many expect HTC’s new standalone headset to be enterprise-focused, as was the case with the Vive Focus Plus.

Earlier this month, a concept design surfaced for a Vive headset meant for fitness/workouts. However, HTC claimed that it is not a real product. The fictional Vive Air VR, which is aimed at high-intensity VR sessions, won a World Design Guide Award.

According to UploadVR, it is unlikely that the Air will be unveiled during Vivecon. Rather, the new headset is said to be a Vive Focus successor focused on business applications.

Registration for Vivecon is free. A keynote on Day 1 will unveil the headset(s) and other announcements, while Day 2 will feature themed sessions with VR industry experts, strategic partners and others.
