At GTC 2018 I interviewed Frank Black from HTC Vive on the commercial business strategy for HTC Vive. a video link is included. (Note this was filmed and broadcast live) This article also contains video of the Silicon Valley Global News team getting to try the HTC Vive Pro.

We talked about, among other things, UPS at their strategy to train people in VR with the HTC Vive Pro, and I’m pretty sure that when Frank is talking about attaching little pucks to anything for tracking that he is talking about the Vive Lighthouse 2.0 technology.
