Google unveiled its Android XR operating system today, which is coming first to the newly revealed Samsung mixed reality headset, “Project Moohan,” slated for consumer release in 2025. It is however a good bet though, considering Unreal Engine has supported OpenXR for a number of years now.
Top news of the week (Image by Samsung) Samsung XR headset may launch in Q3 2025 Two new reports gave us potential updates on the Samsung Project Moohan headset. Of course, they are rumors, so take them with a grain of salt. South Korean news outlet The Elec instead reports that Samsung will use Sonys new 1.35-inch
A two year renovation has transformed The Crossroads lobby into an interactive digital experience powered by Unreal Engine. Each screen depicts imagery of iconic California landmarks, such as the Redwood Forest, Yosemite National Park, and, of course, California’s coastal scenery, but with a vintage California travel poster-feel to them.
Of course, it is not the best VR experience, and of course, it is terrible for gaming, but in the enterprise, it has still value and will probably have for at least one-two years. According to Samsung, it should come in 2028. I myself am discussing a job of this kind these days. Not a great evolution from Microsoft.

Chinese manufacturers BOE and SeeYA may provide cheaper displays in higher quantities than Sony is doing now, while Samsung may be supplying the DRAM components. The price of this device is $600 0 and it is of course aimed at the enterprise sector.
Of course, the Pro has the advantage of the tracking technology : we all know that SteamVR tracking is far better than the awful constellation tracking (sorry Zuck) and with 2.0, Of course, we all want to know the price to make a better judgment and this will happen soon , according to Mister President. Should you buy it?

Samsung AR glasses concept has been leaked. Popular Twitter leaker WalkingCat has leaked two trailer videos about two AR glasses by Samsung.
So with this LiDAR that Apple is pushing pretty hard -- I'm pretty sure Google is going to follow suit pretty quickly, probably one year behind, and then they're going to have LiDAR on their top end phones, probably coming to Samsung -- but try-on is going to be made really possible, try-on of suits. Because it's in a web, obviously Unreal.

With this digital edition, of course, we had nothing of this, and the CES was just a bunch of video announcements. It is a perfect recreation of visual reality, and of course, it solves all the issues that current AR/VR headsets may have (like the vergence-accommodation problem). Of course I guess all of this has come for a price.

Samsung, Nokia entered with their OZO, Jaunt — which recently just got sold to Verizon — they had their Jaunt One camera. And then, of course, nobody– like myself, nobody reads the manual. They used to actually just build virtual experiences and it would use gaming engines like Unity and Unreal.

Facebook could sell all its devices undercost now, subsidizing the cost of the hardware with software and data collection, so that to compete with brands like Samsung and XiaoMi. Of course, as someone says, this is not for everyone: building such characters means also being able to handle them.
Of course, there are some little issues, like for instance: There is a little latency for positional tracking and tracking of controllers (even if it is hardly noticeable); Sometimes you can spot some artifacts , especially if you move very fast; The images do not appear as crisp as on the Rift S , because of the compression stuff.
Let’s see: Google is still working with Qualcomm and Samsung on a mixed-reality headset. This is very interesting, but of course it is not for consumer use , but more for research or healthcare centers. I’m curious to see how this will turn out to be. In fact, the glasses cost £20,000. And they are not even covered in gold.
And once you decide to sell a premium product, of course, the price becomes super-high and unaffordable for all normal people. Of course, indies won’t be super-happy of this decision, but unluckily this is how business works. The SDK offers native APIs, but also supports popular game engines like Unity and Unreal 4.

After so much time teasing it, Google has finally announced Android XR, the version of Android for XR devices, and gave hands-on demos of the headset it is building with Samsung and Qualcomm. Of course, like on Vision Pro, developers can opt out of this XR compatibility, but I guess very few will do that.
Their phones can be used for some low-end VR, via the Cardboard platform from Google, but they haven’t had anything of their own to match the higher-end Samsung Gear VR and Google Daydream View headsets. The developer kit works on Unity, Unreal, and Scenekit engines. But overall, ARKit is an amazing leap forward in AR technology.”
