Open Source Virtual Reality Launches $5M Content Accelerator Program

Razer_logoOpen Source Virtual Reality (OSVR), an open source virtual reality consortium, launched a content accelerator program.

Led by Razer, the $5m OSVR Developer Fund will encourage developers to support the OSVR ecosystem — an open source ecosystem that allows VR content to work across the board with all VR hardware, giving VR fans and developers more choice without worrying about DRM policies or other restrictive measures.

The fund will be available to qualified, participating VR content developers, independent or major. Successful applicants will have their game codes purchased in bulk by Razer – the world leader in connected devices and software for gamers – or any future contributors to the fund in exchange for support of the platform.
They will also receive marketing and promotional support including opportunities to be a part of OSVR hardware bundles or showcases at major consumer events.
