Press Release

Lyon, France, 03/05/2020

3 days of Beta testing for Vrombr. Registration is open.

Demo test Vrombr

Polyptik, the company that develops Vrombr, is opening fifty beta test sessions. Each session lasts 30 minutes in 1 vs 1 mode in which testers will compete on a mini track with a 1/10th scale prototype car.

 

An opportunity to experience Remote Reality for the first time and to get a feel for it.

 

The aim of these sessions is to test the improvements made since the previous version, including:

– the enlargement of the camera’s field of view

– the multiplayer mode

– automatic detection of cars by the finish line

– the calculation of the race time and the multiplayer ranking

– Various bugs

 

Players/testers from all over the world will be able to play on a mini track created for the occasion on a 200m² surface located in Villeurbanne (a town near Lyon, France). One of the objectives was also to validate the game experience given the latency in multiplayer mode.

 

Players/testers will need to have a PC/Mac with video capability to interact with the Vrombr team and a recent smartphone to take control of the cars. All the details to make the demo run smoothly are available on the registration page here.
