[adv] The collaboration between Lenovo and F1 puts fans virtually behind the wheel with ThinkReality VRX

[Advertorial] Are you ready to go, racing fans?

Lenovo and Formula 1® work together to continually improve the fan experience: from content production to live broadcast, including the use of advanced technologies such as augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR). The Lenovo ThinkReality VRX F1 project is the next step forward, and now F1 fans can test themselves on the track.

Using the new ThinkReality VRX An all-in-one headset, racing fans can play an exclusive VR F1 mini-game during the upcoming FORMULA 1 LENOVO UNITED STATES 2023 Grand Prix in Austin.

Based on the legendary race tracks that many of us played on as children, users control an F1 car on a replica of the track, controlling the speed using the buttons of the ThinkReality VRX controllers. During gameplay, the user can view the track from different perspectives. The experience is just like traditional electric racing cars: drivers can drift through turns, but if they accelerate too much into a corner, the car could go off the track and even fall off the table!

During the production of the ThinkReality F1 Experience, generative AI was used to design race car and track elements, as well as voiceovers and programming assistance.

Lenovo ThinkReality VRX F1 will also be available on Lenovo technology world 2023Which will be held on October 23 and 24 in Austin, Texas.
