VR Hub exclusive in Flagship First
Strap on the VR headset provided to you onboard, and enter into a totally different world, that is yet virtually within. The one with unimagined exploration and fun never thought possible before. Go from front-row experiences to adventures you've only dreamed of. Whether it’s your favourite movie, the most exciting game, or exploring around, you will be encapsulated in ground-breaking technology that is years ahead of what any other airline can even dream of putting in their IFE. It’s a whole new leap into the future.
We know that for VR Hub to work successfully, we had to envision a truly spectacular experience, and then develop and manufacture the hardware and software from the ground up by ourselves. And that is exactly what we did; the result is simply mind blowing.
The headset is at the core of VR Hub. Slip the Touch Panel into the headset, and enter into the VR world. Made with soft and lightweight fabric, the headset can even fit comfortably over most eyeglasses.
Interact with the VR world naturally and intuitively with our custom built VR Controller. It is sleek with a minimalistic design that puts a pressure sensitive multi-touch trackpad at its heart, and centralised buttons simplify the whole experience. Inside, brilliant technologies, like an accelerator and gyroscope, precisely detect movements and actions.
When hardware and software are made for each other, everything just works. Incredibly well. So that’s exactly what we did. VR Hub makes use of contents, such as movies and games, in FlyOS 3 to bring a completely new world to life. FlyOS 3 takes advantage of precise sensors in the VR headset to smoothly calibrate motion detection. And the seamless integration means FlyOS 3 can smartly launch and format VR Hub as soon as you strap on your headset.
Austin’s Airways is the very first airline ever to offer true, real VR experience. It’s futuristic technology that’s years ahead of what any other airline can even dream of.
