Varjo Launches Groundbreaking XR-4 Series for Immersive Mixed Reality Experiences
Varjo, a leading industrial VR/XR hardware manufacturer, has unveiled its latest XR-4 series of mixed-reality headsets designed for enterprise and military applications. Boasting of experiences that are almost indistinguishable from natural sight, these headsets aim to push the boundaries of visual fidelity and performance for industrial users.
Included in the XR-4 series are the XR-4, XR-4 Focal Edition, and XR-4 Secure Edition, all of which integrate features such as high-resolution displays, foveated capture streams, advanced LiDAR depth sensing, and camera sensors. These features mimic the functions of the human eye, providing virtual and mixed reality experiences that closely resemble natural sight.
The XR-4 series is powered NVIDIA GPUs and NVIDIA Omniverse, enabling developers and industrial users to create lifelike scenes and activate ray tracing in mixed reality. Varjo emphasizes that this combination of technologies exceeds the computational capabilities of mobile chips.
Backing the XR-4 series is a Varjo-ready software ecosystem featuring more than 100 third-party PC applications and 3D engines that cater to various industries such as training and simulation, design and engineering, and healthcare.
Patrick Wyatt, Chief Product Officer of Varjo, expressed the company’s commitment to bridging the gap between human vision and computer vision with the XR-4 series. “We’re proud to drive the industry forward and see the applications unlocked the XR-4 series’ technological breakthroughs,” Wyatt said in a statement.
In a first for the VR/XR industry, Varjo introduces the gaze-directed autofocus mixed reality pass-through feature. Other key features of the XR-4 series include a wide field of view, increased display brightness, high-fidelity real-time video pass-through mixed reality, DTS 3D spatial audio with noise-canceling mics, inside-out tracking, and Varjo Controllers powered Razer.
Varjo’s recently established manufacturing facility in Finland will facilitate the production of the XR-4 Secure Edition, scheduled to begin operations in December.
