r/Xreal

Got the 1S this weekend (previous were the nreal air 1). I'm blown away, just wish they were smaller and not as bulky like the air1's (just about the same size and bulkyness, actual frames are thinner tho). But yes, they are a worthy upgrade.

Now, Real3D is the real deal. I'm not sure what kind of witchcraft xreal has cooked up, but if you ever had a chance to use the Nintendo 3DS 3D feature, its that but for everything you look at. I was confused as to what this "3D" feature actually worked with. Maybe for 3D movies, makes sense right? But no, its for that and anything else you can watch. Its witchcraft, and some might say its a gimmick, but legitimately it actually makes me want to use the glasses even more for media consumption use. This is an experience that I can't really get anywhere else, not even with my Quest3, an actual vr headset. Legit makes this purchase that much worthwhile since I originally just wanted to upgrade for 3DoF. Highly recommended!

I have glasses (I can't see far away without them) and I have been using Quest 3 VR and I have no any issues with using those with my glasses. Anyway, there seems to be different kind of views of if Xreal AR glass works with glasses or not, so I ask here.

What models and products of Xreal can be used on top of my normal glasses? I do not want to get lenses what are made for my eyesight since that will change anyway in years, so it would be better to have glasses what can be with current glasses.

Note that I do not care if it looks dork to use those since I normally use anyway this kind of stuff at home or when visiting to my mom's place. Is any of current models wearable with glasses without having issues them falling off from head, scratching the lens and so on?

Hello,

what is a better practice? and why? Assume the key I want to insert is available in String type initially.

use std::collections::HashMap;

    let mut map = HashMap::<String, u32>::new();

    // a fct to add a key,value to my hashmap (I know it doesn't need to be      implemented in this example but in my use case it does).

    fn add_pair_v1(map: &mut HashMap::<String, u32>, s:String, u:u32){
      map.insert(s,u);
    }
    
    //or
    
    fn add_pair_v2(map:&mut HashMap::<String, u32>, s:&str, u:u32){
      map.insert(s.to_string(),u);
    }

Thank you !

I recently got a couple pairs of Xreal one pro with xreal eye for my wife and I. Now I am trying to decide what device or ecosystem to get for my wife. I have seen video of people pairing the pro one with the viture neckband.

The reason why I went with the xreal one pro instead of viture glasses is because it seems like the overall user experience is better and stable. This ease of use and stability is important for my wife. She will mainly be playing pc games and also interacting with apps on her iPhone, you know the usual scrolling apps.

So my question is, do you all think the beam pro is the way to go? Or is the viture neckband pro a viable option. I also have an inair pod on the way for use with my viture luma ultras. So I will have an opportunity to play around with pairing the pod with the xreals as well.

I feel like there's so much uncertainty in this space. I'm still questioning if the xreal one pro was the way to go for her.

Hey XREAL fam 👋

Refresh rate is something we don’t always notice… until we do.

Right now, most use cases go up to 90 or even 120Hz(while some modes like REAL 3D still run at lower refresh rates (though we’re working on improving that).

🎮 What refresh rate feels “good enough” for you in AR glasses? What refresh rate do you usually use?

Currently, AR glasses have significant limitations for everyday use, and their current niche is more entertainment (video) than useful. Here, I'd like to describe how I see their use as an engineer.

1. All glasses should have a single, open protocol and data transfer drivers. Any developer should be able to write a program in their favorite programming language to transmit video to the glasses and read data from them. Perhaps a new protocol for transmitting virtual space (likely similar to RDP) should be developed.

2. The glasses shouldn't have expensive, high-performance chips (where are you going to put the heat from the OLED and CPU?). If the glasses are accidentally crushed, it shouldn't significantly impact the user's budget when buying new ones.

3. It would be great to have Wi-Fi 7+ built into the glasses in addition to the wired version, but if this creates unnecessary heat or poses health problems, then only the wired version should be used.

4. The glasses should have a separate cooling circuit/channels for the sensors to avoid overheating the forehead and eyebrow area during prolonged wear. Perhaps a piezoelectric fan would improve the situation without significantly increasing the weight (but what about vibration?).

5. The glasses should have bone conduction speakers instead of regular speakers. People around me shouldn't hear my sound.

6. A large FOV is great, but only with a high PPD for comfortable text processing. The PPD in the center can be higher than the PPD at the periphery.

7. The glasses should have eye tracking for simple hands-free operation and cryptographic security based on retinal scanning.

8. The glasses should have a noise-canceling microphone so that the other person can hear us clearly.

9. The glasses should have stereo cameras and be able to output real-time video to the USB-C port, as well as sensor data.

10. It should be possible to adjust the distance between the eyes and the glasses. For example, in Xreal One, I can't move the glasses closer than the nose pads allow.

An external computing unit, I'd call it a cyberdeck 😄

I see two development paths here.

1. Ideally, we should get rid of it and move toward the concept of multiple cyberdecks depending on the situation: one cyberdeck at the work PC, another cyberdeck in the car, etc.

Or 2. Have a simple cyberdeck without bells and whistles like cameras, displays, etc. Its purpose is to save the user's application state, store data (for example, with the ability to install NVMe drives)

and (most importantly) serve as a hub for connecting to other cyberdeck stations.

It should have several USB-C ports that will allow you to connect both simple HID devices and complex ones that will transmit images.

For example, I'm working on a PC and connected to it via a cyberdeck. Through my glasses, I can see my monitors, which I previously set up for this workspace. Workspaces are always saved.

In another situation, I'm driving a car and connecting to the car's PC. With my glasses, I can see all my car's cameras, navigation, and other apps that enhance driving comfort and safety. It's important to note that the glasses should be synchronized with the car's position, for example, using a compass, so that when turning, I have full 3DoF/6DoF resolution inside the car, rather than a fixed image in front of my eyes.

When I'm shopping, I only have the basic cyberdeck running. For example, I want to see price comparisons on products. To reduce the load on the basic cyberdeck, it can transmit data to my home workstation for AI processing and return the results, or to a paid provider's cloud for the same calculations.

For fast and convenient connections and disconnections, USB-C should have a single magnetic connection standard.

Perhaps in some places, USB-C can be replaced with Ethernet.

We need to strive to control virtual space using controller gloves. Gloves can be made using magnetic encoders (such as the AS5600) with attachments near the finger joints. This will ensure high precision and relative compactness.

Let me remind you separately that Linux became very popular, in part, because it was open and everyone could customize it for their own needs.

let me know in the comments if you have any issues

Have you ever started building something by accident that solves a problem that eveyone has been having. I live on a fixed income and have fallen for the use of ai.

I run Hermes locally on a Mac mini M4 Pro 64GB. I only use open source programs. I have three different projects I am working on. A dashboard that is easy for myself to use. I am dyslexic and have left side motor skill issues. I want to find a clear STT and TTS open source projects on GitHub. That would make life easier in my use of AI.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Sadness. Despair. I'm waiting for XREAL Aura real bad
