BEIJING, May 23, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- News.cn, a powerful news organization and part of Xinhua News Agency, is launching a new VR Channel. This new VR Channel will provide users with a new and unique method to experience the news as if you were standing there.

From the panoramic view from 500m above the landslide accident in Shenzhen to the 1km-long Yandaixie Alley in Beijing, you can feel what is happening. Recently, the VR Channel, the painstaking fruit of Xinhua News Agency, has been made available on the News.cn to bring you to the news in person, experience scene and gain the latest information.

VR, short for virtual reality, refers to a brand new interactive technique based on the latest sensor and computer technologies. VR is currently one of the cutting-edge technologies and continues expanding into new realms. In the VR Channel presented by News.cn, unmanned machines are used to collect and report news from a multi-dimensional perspective. Coupled with the previous video and kaleidoscopic listening functions, it provides global users with a bespoke user experience different from traditional news from the acoustic, visual and sensory aspects.

As a multimedia integrated and interactive client presented by Xinhua News Agency, News.cn has been exploring new ways to have fun in a news-oriented client. Thus, News.cn upholds the "kaleidoscopic" concept to innovatively utilize the "Powerful Listening" function. To ease the impact of long-term use of mobile phones and emancipate the hands, this function allows the user to "listen to the global news and enjoy the fun across the world", thus realizing a healthy reading experience. This "Powerful Listening" function has pushed News.cn to a new height and unveiled a new chapter of the revolution in mobile new media.

Counting upon the powerful information network of Xinhua News Agency and professional teams, News.cn is devoted to providing users with authoritative and timely information, while it constantly explores new features. As the most authoritative client for releasing Chinese and foreign language news in China, News.cn is available in Chinese, English, Japanese and French. Through elaborative and authoritative global news issued 24h a day, it offers users a distinctive experience.

News.cn is embarking on entering the international market. Taking Indonesia as the first target market, it will have a close contact with local Chinese and students studying abroad in Indonesia to embody the unique charm of News.cn and continue expansion in overseas markets.
