Sony and Siemens revealed an XR (Xtended Actuality) headset collab at CES 2024. Launching later this yr, the headset was developed with enterprise in thoughts, and that’s obvious from a number of elements of it.
Sony designed the brand new headset for companies, engineers, and builders to discover and mannequin 3D environments. It additionally targets product designers for testing and prototyping their product iterations. That is not like the Apple Vision Pro and the Meta Quest, that are extra for the common client to play video games or watch motion pictures. Sony already has a foot in that market with its PSVR2.
Sony’s headset comes with a Qualcomm XR2+ Gen 2 chipset and 4K OLED microdisplays. In contrast to its rivals, it has a set of bodily controls, too. There’s a wearable ring accent to put on, in addition to a stylus/controller hybrid.
My private favourite function on this headset is its flippable visor. Different mainstream headsets are a ache to take off, however Sony’s headset sports activities a flip-up show. Each time that you must hop out into the actual world for a bit, you’ll be able to simply prop the facial interface up with out having to take the complete headset off. This might be a quality-of-life function for professionals who should rapidly bounce from VR to their pc display screen.
Whereas Sony’s headset might not steal the highlight from Apple and its Vision Pro coming out next month, it may discover its manner into extra places of work with its business-focused strategy. Sony didn’t present a launch date or a value for the headset.
