Three of the Top Virtual Reality Stocks to Watch in 2019

February 26, 2019 - Winning Media


The virtual reality (VR) boom is here.

As it quickly becomes reality for millions, it’s no wonder gaming companies, broadcasters, and media companies are turning to the technology.

Look at the 2018 Winter Olympics, for example.

NBC Olympics provided more than 50 hours of live virtual reality coverage powered by Intel True VR during the XXIII Olympic Winter Games from PyeongChang, South Korea.

However, this is just the start. The virtual reality market is expected to grow from $7.9 billion in 2018 to more than $44.7 billion in the next five years, according to Research and Markets, as we begin to see sizable interest from gaming, entertainment, and large technology companies.

That’s already creating sizable opportunity for several companies, including YDX Innovation Corporation (TSXV:YDX)(OTC:YDRMF), NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA), and Comcast Corporation (NASDAQ:CMCSA).

Augmented and virtual reality developer, YDX Innovation Corporation (YDX)(YDRMF) and The Walt Disney Company Brazil just signed an agreement to create exclusive content for Arkave VR, for example.

Arkave VR Arena was created by YDX Innovation Corp. to be a premium Virtual Reality option for thousands of Family Entertainment Centers (FECs) that are looking for an affordable and highly immersive Virtual Reality solution. It’s a free roam, multiplayer platform and easy to operate since it does not require a VR backpack. The objective is to create a new VR experience using Disney´s iconic IP – Mickey Mouse. The first game will be co-created by Disney and Arkave in Brazil and will bring Mickey Mouse to Arkave VR.

“As we expand the network of Arkave VR Arenas, its crucial to develop new games with characters that our users can recognize. Mickey Mouse is an iconic figure and Disney is a leader in the entertainment industry. Our goal in licensing content for the next generation of games is to accelerate the brand recognition of Arkave VR and increase the interest from operators to bring our Arena to their locations.” – Stated Daniel Japiassu, CEO of YDX Innovation.

A deep learning-based model developed by NVIDIA (NVDA) allows developers and artists to create new interactive worlds for automotive, gaming or virtual reality.

“NVIDIA has been creating new ways to generate interactive graphics for 25 years – and this is the first time we can do this with a neural network,” Bryan Catanzaro, VP of Applied Deep Learning at NVIDIA said. “Neural networks – specifically  – generative models are going to change the way graphics are created.”

“One of the main obstacles developers face when creating virtual worlds, whether for game development, telepresence, or other applications is that creating the content is expensive. This method allows artists and developers to create at a much lower cost, by using AI that learns from the real world.”

Comcast Corporation (CMCSA) invested millions in NextVR, a VR- platform specializing in broadcasting live video events, including concerts and sporting events, for example.

In recent months, Comcast Ventures-backed VR-startup Spaces announced that it is opening its second California location in San Jose. The company has teamed up with Cinemark to open a new VR center at the Century 20 Oakridge and XD theatre. The new center will open with “Fight for the Future,” a multiplayer VR experience based on the “Terminator Salvation” movie. Groups of up to 4 players will enter a virtual world.
