Xreal is working on Android XR glasses, codenamed Project Aura, in collaboration with Google and Qualcomm.
Project Aura by Xreal is the second official Android XR device, showcasing AR elements that create a private movie theatre-like experience.
The Xreal Project Aura, classified as an optical see-through XR device, aims to compete with other smart glasses with superior technology and Google's Android XR software.
With Project Aura being tethered and featuring Qualcomm processors, Xreal aims to offer advanced spatial computing capabilities.
Details about cost and release date of Project Aura are yet to be disclosed, promising further revelations at the Augmented World Expo.
Xreal's CEO anticipates Project Aura to be a breakthrough moment for real-world XR, potentially offering cost-effective entry into XR glasses.

Android XR may challenge Meta's Horizon OS with a diverse range of XR hardware options backed by Google, Samsung, and Xreal.
The future of Android XR in terms of app quality and variety could significantly impact Meta's standing in the XR space.
Google's strong start in the XR market with Android XR could put pressure on Meta to respond and innovate further.
