Constructed with a dual form factor build, the VR Backpack G2 Workstation from HP lets users unlock the potential of VR with a wearable system optimized for free-roam environments. From location-based entertainment to immersive training and innovation design, pioneer new experiences and solutions using extreme power that is packed into a compact and wearable form factor. It can be worn on your back to validate and test VR creations, as its backpack design with improved ergonomics and hot-swappable batteries provide the freedom to work, demonstrate, or train people in VR without getting tangled up in cords. An internal battery ensures uninterrupted operation while you change the hot-swappable batteries. The backpack may also be docked and used as a high-powered desktop system to accelerate VR work and complete detailed design work, thanks to its powerful processor, memory, and dedicated graphics card.
HP's VR Backpack G Workstation is powered by a 2.6 GHz Intel Core i7-8850H Six-Core processor armed with 9MB of L3 cache. This processor, core, and cache will allow you to run multiple applications simultaneously and provide significant performance gains when running multi-threaded tasks. If you need more power, the CPU can deliver extra performance by increasing the clock speed up to 4.3 GHz utilizing Intel's Turbo Boost 2.0 technology. The 16GB of 2666 MHz DDR4 ECC RAM comes in a 2 x 8GB configuration, allowing the computer to run multiple applications simultaneously and to quickly access frequently used files and programs. This system supports a maximum memory amount of 32GB and may be upgraded using a 16GB module in each of its 260-pin SO-DIMM slots.
For long-term storage of your files, this system is equipped with a 256GB NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD. If you want to add external storage drives, optical drives, printers, memory card readers, or other peripherals, there is one Thunderbolt 3 port and four USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-A ports. The dedicated NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 graphics card has 8GB of GDDR6 RAM and delivers a sharp, clear picture, while allowing for up to four simultaneous displays: two using the system's video outputs, and two using the included Z VR Backpack Dock.
Whether you are listening to music, watching a movie, or playing a game, the integrated Realtek ALC3866-CG audio controller with DTS Headphone:X and DTS Studio Sound outputs high-definition audio and delivers higher fidelity than standard audio controllers. Network connectivity is achieved using the integrated Gigabit Ethernet port, which is only available when docked, or Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac), and additional compatible peripherals may be paired using wireless Bluetooth 5.0 technology.
The HP VR Backpack G2 Workstation includes their Z VR Backpack Battery Charger, Z VR Backpack Dock, VR Backpack G2 Harness, Z VR Backpack External Battery, a 330W Smart AC power adapter, and a 180W Smart AC power adapter. Protection is provided by a limited 1-year parts, labor, and on-site repair warranty.
