Acer announced an expansion of developer tools for its industry-leading SpatialLabs technology, providing more avenues to develop glasses-free, stereoscopic 3D experiences on Acer SpatialLabs Pro devices at Computex 2023.
Acer Supports SpatialLabs Developers’ Tools
Acer’s SpatialLabs Pro devices now support Unity plug-ins, enabling developers to create stereo 3D content and applications. The certified OpenXR runtime for SpatialLabs allows developers to utilize OpenXR protocols on the devices’ commercial displays.
The tech brand’s SteamVR Bridge enhances immersive experiences for VR application developers using SpatialLabs Pro devices.
Pro Suite Developer Program: Unity Plug-in
The brand has launched its support for the Unity plug-in, extending its reach to more creators across various fields, including education, architecture, construction, medicine, and more, alongside the Unreal plug-in.
As a widely used platform for creating stereo 3D content and applications, more professional developers can take advantage of the Unity plug-in’s existing tools and verticals to enhance their experiences and help present their models in their true 3D form on SpatialLabs Pro Devices, without the need for specialized glasses.
OpenXR Runtime
The tech company has successfully reached conformance for its OpenXR Runtime, making SpatialLabs Pro devices conformant with OpenXR. As a long-standing member and contributor of the Khronos OpenXR working group, The brand embraces open standards and is committed to building an accessible ecosystem for its hardware solutions.
SteamVR Bridge
With the availability of the tech company’s proprietary SteamVR Bridge driver, developers of VR applications, ranging from virtual tours to art exhibits, and educational content, can convert their creations on SpatialLabs Pro devices to deliver captivating imagery and clarity to users without the need for VR headsets.
SpatialLabs Pro device users may also leverage the Acer SteamVR Bridge with NVIDIA Omniverse to streamline workflows and broaden their viewing options for enhanced stereo 3D projection of complex graphics, visual effects, and simulations.
