Sony has introduced new VR glasses. The headset features a Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 SoC, two 4K OLED screens, six cameras that scan the environment, and two controllers. The glasses will come onto the market in 2024. How much the device will cost is unclear.
According to Sony, the VR headset supports High definition pass-through, allowing users to continue to perceive the environment around them. The Japanese company delivers two controllers with the VR glasses: a so-called ring controller, with which virtual, three-dimensional objects can be manipulated, and a pointing controller. The latter would allow precise information.
It’s not clear how much the VR headset weighs, but Sony emphasizes that the glasses are balanced. When choosing the materials, the Japanese paid particular attention to the wearing comfort for the users. These users can also fold up the glasses to exit the virtual world. This is done via a hinge. No recalibration is required when the device is subsequently closed again.
Sony also announced a partnership with Siemens AG. The German company provides its NX Immersive Designer software for the glasses. This software is part of the XCelerator platform for business applications. For example, with the NX Immersive Designer software, engineers and designers can create product designs in virtual space.
