AR Game Changer: Qualcomm Snapdragon XR1 Augmented Reality Glasses
- From The Category5.TV Newsroom Episode 676
- March 8, 2021
Chip manufacturer Qualcomm has unveiled the Snapdragon XR1 AR Smart Viewer Reference Design, and it's a game changer. Delivering high-performance, immersive experiences with lower power consumption, the XR1 is significantly less bulky than similar products coming to market, looking more like a pair of sunglasses than a big VR head mount. The XR1 taps into the performance capabilities of a compatible device such as a smartphone or Windows PC, being tethered by a single USB-C cable and controlled by gestures.

Robbie always over-exaggerates his gestures.... Luckily, Jeff finds inspiration with his use of the shots. ???? #Cat5TV https://t.co/uiuI1lPFRT
