I'm constantly reading Samsung, Qualcomm, Google Cloud today on LinkedIn ...
@Diogenese please take a closer look at that.
Samsung is making 'extended reality' wearable devices
The first product will use a version of Android built for virtual worlds.
The "XR" hardware will also entail partnerships with Meta and Microsoft, although Samsung isn't elaborating further. Rumors have swirled that Microsoft
axed HoloLens 3 in favor of this project. In an interview with
The Post, mobile president TM Roh says the ecosystem has to be "somewhat ready" before launch. The tech giant wants to avoid the missteps of rivals who debuted comparable hardware without robust support.
Samsung is no stranger to wearable screens. The company leapt into the market with 2015's
Gear VR, which used the smartphone as both the display and computing power. In 2017, the firm jumped into PC-oriented mixed reality headsets with the
HMD Odyssey. Samsung largely left the market to rivals like Meta and HTC after 2018, however.
Samsung is working on 'extended reality' wearable devices that will use a new version of Android.
