The VARJO XR 1 is the first headset to completely reinterpret Mixed Reality. With its video pass-through function, the head-mounted display films the environment photorealistically. The generated pixels of reality can be supplemented and overwritten with other pixels from virtual reality. Thus, virtual objects can be viewed in full quality in daylight.

When you see real and virtual content with video pass-through, you experience real and virtual content in lifelike colors, lights and shades in the entire field of vision. Image quality is achieved thanks to the high-resolution stereo pass-through generated with cameras, sensors, optics, ISP and a patented Bionic display. The latency of VARJO XR-1 <15 ms is so low that professionals can explore mixed realities as if they were experiencing the real world.

Because the VARJO XR-1 HMD with its depth sensors recognizes the 3D structure of the real world, developers can create applications in which virtual and real objects seamlessly complement each other. Light situations and shadows of reality can then be transferred to virtual objects. The VARJO XR-1 HMD is also a solid platform for generating reliable hand tracking, surface detection, gesture recognition, eye tracking and other functions.

Combine real and virtual with the world’s only device that can create photorealistic mixed reality scenarios. Show virtual content as it should look for the first time: Not to be distinguished from the real world.

“With the Varjo XR-1, we can start evaluating designs and technologies while they’re still literally on the drawing board,” says Henrik Green, Chief Technology Officer at Volvo Cars. “Instead of the usual static evaluation of new products and ideas, we can immediately test concepts on the road. This approach offers significant cost saving potential by eliminating bottlenecks much earlier in the design and development process.”

Demo

Very often photos, videos and product data sheets are not sufficient to get a well-founded impression of a media technology environment. Therefore our free demo offer is gladly taken up. We invite you to experience our products live in the IMSYS-CX-Lab. Get an impression of the usability, quality and functionality of the technologies. Get useful tips and insider information in a DEMO session. Mail to hello(at)imsys-vr.com

Rental

You are planning an event and are thinking about staging your content with a technical highlight? Or the live demo of the IMSYS-CX-Lab is not enough. It would be better to test individual products in your environment over a longer period of time? Contact us and let us show the range of our solutions and components available for rental.
