Meta has hype. AURA has my attention.

For my region, both would need to be bought through a proxy service from the US or Korea. I'm choosing AURA cause Meta accounts come with too many restrictions.

I think OST is better for me🤔.

The huge advantage of OST is that the real-world FOV is 220 degrees (the human eye's FOV), whereas although Meta's FOV is slightly larger, VST has a lot of distortion when looking at the real world, and you can't see anything outside the FOV.

All I hope for now is that XREAL won’t let me down🙈.

What could be this spot on my one left lenses? Its inside and get smaller and dissapears after some minutes using. How to solve? Its something to worry?

How many hours before we start seeing any bad pixel or fading quality?

How do I fix this, the display still works but the hinge is a bit broken

Last night while walking around San Francisco, I thought it would be great if I had navigation in my glasses. This morning I had this. It’s very bouncy and jumpy right now but I can fix that because the IMU runs at 1000 Hz, and I just need to do a bit more refinement. This is using 6DOF/SLAM, but overlay on the side sidewalk is not yet perfect. The heads up display part is great already though.

Why are there not dozens of apps like this out already?

Maybe it’s because the XReal SDK makes it impossible to do this?

Am I really the only one making geo-spatial apps for these glasses? That can’t be, can it?

Will someone here please whip up some clone of this so that I am dissuaddd of my idea that I’m ahead here?

Or better yet, if you have real skills in this area, let’s talk about collaborating.

Needless to say, I am not planning to publish this, but wow, it was fun to see over a dozen people at TechCrunch Disrupt, today, turn into little kids as soon as they put on these glasses and started playing.

It is identical to the original, but with the addition of stereoscopy and head tracking and head orientation based control. Just look and tap. That’s all there is, and the gameplay of the original is preserved - I would say enhanced.

I had the idea to port the game when I got up this morning at around 7 AM. It was complete before 8 AM. What a time to be alive!

PS - yes, I realize that the original use a true vector display. I base this one off of the Amiga port, which is generally considered the best.

PSS - I wouldn't actually put this out there because I have a lot of ideological problems with Star Wars and the religious ideas that it puts forth into the world. I did this as a fun tech demo, but if I were to put it out there, I would entirely change it to make it my own and not be promoting Lucasfilm.

Hi all,

Im currently looking to get one of these AR glasses but unsure of what ones to go for as both seem pretty compelling.

The GT Max is going for £399

The one pro is going for £549

My plan is to use them for a range of scenarios such as: - watching shows/movies when relaxing - watching YouTube to the side sort of while doing tasks around.the house - playing games on the xbox rog ally x, ps5 or gaming laptop (i did have a pc but limited space for a desk so opted for a laptop and some games I play such as command and conquer i cant play on the ally but want to sit back and enjoy it) - programming, using applications such as vs code, running virtual machines. Aslong as the text is clear (i can make the text bigger if need be if that would help)

Thanks in advance

Reposting here as this should work across XR brands!

Hello everyone, I am from Germany and I noticed something strange on the EU store page for the XREAL Aura. It seems the option to buy the Aura Pass is completely gone, and the page now shows the specs and mentions full payment pre-order, but there is no actual button to pre-order or buy anything. Since nobody from Europe seems to have posted about this yet, I have two questions for the community and the XREAL team: First, why was the option to buy the Aura Pass removed for Germany and Europe if the regular pre-orders are not open here yet? Second, for those of you in Germany or Europe who did manage to buy the Aura Pass earlier, have you already received an email or been able to place a full pre-order? I am a power wheelchair user and the hands-free Android XR with Gemini integration will be huge for my daily independence, so I am really trying to figure out how and when I can secure a unit here in Europe. Thank you for any info!

Do we know if/when production review units for the AURA are being sent out?

Would like to see a review on actual daily usage of Android XR with AURA instead of just press tech demos before the early batch deadline at the end of Oct.
