Xreal is partnering with Asus to introduce the ROG Xreal R1 AR glasses, designed specifically for gamers and featuring a groundbreaking 240Hz refresh rate, double the standard 120Hz found in most AR glasses today. These glasses boast micro-OLED panels with 1080p resolution and a 57-degree field of view, providing a large virtual screen experience. They connect to devices via a USB-C cable and come with the ROG Control Dock, which includes HDMI and DisplayPort options for versatile connectivity. The glasses offer three degrees of freedom, allowing users to anchor the screen or let it follow head movements, and are expected to launch in the first half of the year, though pricing details are yet to be announced. This matters because it represents a significant advancement in AR technology for gaming, enhancing immersive experiences with higher refresh rates and improved connectivity options.
