Intel

Chip manufacturer Giant Intel is teaming up with Microsoft to bring new Windows Mixed Reality experiences and content to the mainstream. This collaboration is part of Intel’s on going commitment of giving new and exciting VR.

Gregory Bryant, senior vice president and general manager of Intel’s Client Computing Group, joined Microsoft Technical Fellow Alex Kipman virtually in AltspaceVR – a well-known social platform for virtual reality – to demonstrate the promise of social mixed reality.

“We’re thrilled about this and know that viewers are going to love the way they can get a front row seat to take part in the action,” Bryant said. “The Olympics and AltspaceVR are the type of experiences that light up with Windows Mixed Reality and 8th Gen Intel Core processors, and we’re going to scale this experience across devices – everything from 2 in 1s, notebooks to desktops – so everyone can enjoy.”

During the event, Bryant highlighted Intel’s role and commitment to bring mixed reality experiences to life, including the recent launch of the 8th Gen Intel® Core™ processor and announced that Intel will deliver a Windows Mixed Reality experience with Intel True VR for the PyeongChang 2018 Olympic Winter Games.
