Acer’s SpatialLabs edition laptops were first announced for the designer focused ConceptD lineup. The technology allows for a more immersive experience when it comes to 3D design and content. This year, the company bringing SpatialLabs technology to their Predator with the new Predator Helios 300 SpatialLabs edition.
The Predator Helios 300 SpatialLabs brings a whole new experience to gaming. It throws gamers into the thick of their games without the need for glasses. Using a combination of a stereoscopic 3D display, eye tracking solutions and real-time rendering technologies, games are turned into immersive 3D experiences. Backing the eye tracking technology is a a 15.6-inch UHD 2D panel. The panel has a liquid crystal lenticular lens bonded on top of it. The new, revolutionary module allows users to switch between 2D and 3D experiences seamlessly.
Acer takes it a step further with SpatialLabs’ TrueGame application which can use pre-existing data in game rendering to generate an immersive, stereoscopic 3D world. This is made possible as games are designed with depth in mind which allows the application to generate 3D landscapes and scenes in real-time.
Acer has already identified more than 50 modern and classic games that will have configuration files in TrueGame for better compatibility and rendering. This list of games will continue to grow with titles being added regularly. Acer may very well have the revolution we’ve been waiting for when it comes to 3D gaming with the Predator Helios 300 SpatialLabs Edition. It all depends on how the final product performs when it’s available.
The new Helios 300 SpatialLabs Edition is packed to the brim with top of the line specifications to power the immersive 3D experiences generated by SpatialLabs TrueGame. Under the hood, it has a 12th Generation Intel Core i9 processor paired with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop GPU. Complimenting the processor and GPU is 32GB of DDR5-4800 RAM and PCIe Gen 4 NVMe SSD storage. Acer is also adopting liquid metal thermal grease to complement a dual fan cooling system powered by a 5th Generation AeroBlade 3D fan. This combination allows more heat to dissipated from the processor and GPU more efficiently. Acer’s CoolBoost technology is only the cherry on top.
