At the recent IAAPA Expo Europe, two VR Bobble Awards were handed out by virtual reality expert Bob Cooney, recognizing innovation in the location-based VR business. HTC Vive received the award for their new VIVE Focus 3 headset and software suite, while SPREE Interactive won for their Spree Arena, the first VR product designed to accommodate families with younger children.
“The Focus 3 is the best LBVR headset available right now,” Cooney said. “HTC did an amazing job of listening to the market over the last several years. Every VR experience creator I talk to in the world has either moved to the Focus 3 or has plans to in 2023. The VIVE Focus 3 will become the industry standard headset for location-based entertainment.”
Added Jonathan Nowak Delgado, co-founder and managing director of SPREE Interactive: “To be recognized for our relentless focus on delivering the very best VR experience for kids is a huge honor. Our game designers have cracked the code to create games that capture the imagination of younger children, a huge segment of the FEC market being ignored by VR developers. Allowing younger kids to play together with their parents and even grandparents sparks joy for the whole family.”
