Viture has consistently delivered cutting-edge smart glasses with impressive displays. As the AR market evolves, the need for enhanced functionality and extended capabilities becomes paramount. Viture’s latest innovation, the Pro Neckband, addresses this demand, promising a significant upgrade to the Viture smart glasses experience.
Currently, Viture smart glasses rely on the Spacewalker app for iOS and Android, allowing users to project multiple virtual screens, browse the web, and view content. However, the inability to run other apps has been a limiting factor. The Pro Neckband aims to eliminate this restriction.
This standalone Android device unlocks access to “millions of apps,” according to Viture, within a multi-window spatial computing environment. Viture hails it as the next level of AR interaction, offering users a significantly expanded range of possibilities.
Viture’s Pro Neckband is a hands-free wearable that can run Android apps.
Similar to Xreal’s Beam Pro, Rokid’s AR Lite, and features found in Apple’s Vision Pro, the Pro Neckband incorporates a separate compute unit, eliminating the need for a phone connection. This independent processing power allows for more complex functionalities, previously only available in VR headsets like the Meta Quest 3, such as hand-tracking.
Viture has integrated hand-tracking sensors into the Pro Neckband, enabling users to control the interface through intuitive gestures. Wave and pinch motions allow for seamless window manipulation, app interaction, and navigation within the AR environment.
Compared to the original Neckband, Viture claims the Pro Neckband offers a sevenfold increase in speed and a staggering 40 times improvement in GPU performance. It achieves this while maintaining a lighter design and providing extended battery life. The undisclosed 6nm 8-core processor, coupled with up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, supports Bluetooth and Wi-Fi 6E connectivity.
This robust hardware configuration empowers Viture’s AI assistant, Vizard, and provides ample storage for games, movies, and other applications. Users can stream content from platforms like YouTube and Netflix, enjoy 3D movies, or leverage Viture’s AI to convert 2D videos into immersive 3D experiences.
