Xiaomi presented its new prototype Wireless AR Glass Discovery Edition glasses, weighing 126 grams and with a "retina level" screen.
Although the metaverse doesn't seem to have gotten the attention it expected world, social media companies and phone makers alike continue to experiment with the technology which supports it. So in Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona, Xiaomi revealed the news original Wireless AR Glass Discovery Edition glasses.
Xiaomi used a pair of MicroLED displays with a maximum brightness of 1.200 nits, as well as light-guiding prisms to recreate an image. The company said that when the PPD (pixels per degree) reaches 60, people cannot perceive individual pixels. Xiaomi AR's glass screen has 58 PPD, so it's pretty close.
Xiaomi said it uses electrochromic lenses to adjust the display in different lighting conditions. The glasses also feature a full blackout feature for an immersive experience, making them like headphones VR.
