During MWC 2023, which was held from February 27, Xiaomi announced Xiaomi Wireless AR Glass, an augmented reality glass.
These products look like ordinary glasses, except for the camera placed on the front. To realize a wireless AR connection, the delay is limited to 50 ms. Pairing is possible by simply tapping the smartphone on the dongle, and pairing is performed using NFC.
Xiaomi Wireless AR Glasses adopts a retina-level near-eye display for AR glasses, and the resolution is PPD, so the resolution per 1 degree of viewing angle is 58. This high-resolution display makes it possible to realize a smooth crossover between the real world and virtual reality.
The lens part adopts an electrochromic lens, and the peak luminance is 1,200 nits by adding micro AMOLED. Operation is carried out with AR gesture control developed by Chamoy. Equipped with an accurate space detection function, you can drag or zoom in or out on the screen by holding your finger, and virtual objects can be placed at desired locations in physical space. You can also switch screens by swiping your finger up and down. Basically, it can be operated intuitively with gestures close to smartphone operations. You can also turn the smart light on or off within your field of view with gesture manipulation.
Reportedly, the official name of this product is a bit longer (Xiaomi Wireless AR Smart Glass Explorer Edition). The display is equipped with micro OLED capable of full HD and 1080p output on both sides, and three cameras are placed on the front, which are said to be used to map the environment in front of the user’s eyes.
The body weight is 126g, and strong but lightweight materials such as finer and magnesium alloy are used. Here, it is said that weight reduction was realized by adopting a silicon oxygen anode battery developed by Xiaomi rather than a lithium-ion battery. Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2 Gen1 is used for the processor, and smartphone pairing is essential because the body has no memory.
In addition, this product is said to have a function that makes the front lens black or transparent when a button is pressed. If you want to see the real world, you can make the lens transparent, and if you want to enjoy movie-like video content, you can immerse yourself in the video by making the background black.
