Look, Mum, No Computer! How the Cloud can Revolutionize VR Experiences (Presented by Google Cloud)

Virtual reality is changing the way we engage with the digital world. Whether you're using VR to walk around a model of a car in Unreal Engine, play a VR game that offers rich, ray-traced environments, or collaborate in a virtual production environment, you need a powerful workstation with a GPU to engage with many VR workloads. Without a powerful gaming PC, you're limited to a standalone headset such as the Oculus Quest. These devices don't have the resources necessary to run advanced graphics workloads due to their limited CPU, GPU, or on-board memory. What if you didn't need a physical workstation to drive these VR experiences? What if you could connect your headset to a powerful, GPU-accelerated workstation in the cloud? Learn how to connect a VR headset to an instance running in Google Cloud using CloudXR, explore the advantages and limitations of this solution, and see a number of use cases to test performance.
