Xreal unveils Project Aura smartglasses for immersive Android XR

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Xreal has unveiled Project Aura, a new set of smartglasses designed for an immersive Android XR experience. These glasses feature three cameras for hand tracking and photo/video capture, offering a wide field of view and sharp display. Project Aura connects to a separate puck for processing, which includes a trackpad and fingerprint sensor, and the device demonstrated multimodal capabilities by identifying objects and their molecular structures using Google's Gemini. While capable of entertainment, Xreal is positioning Project Aura as a pro-level device that can function as an external display for laptops, suggesting a premium price point. AI

IMPACT Offers a glimpse into multimodal AR experiences and potential productivity gains through AI integration.
