Conclusion What are AR Glasses and Why are they Great for Gaming? AR (Augmented Reality) glasses are ultra-lightweight, wearable displays that can take the shape of headsets, googles, but often resemble sunglasses. Imagine having a massive, crisp virtual screen floating in front of you wherever you go; that's what you can expect once putting a pair of AR glasses on. When combined with compatible devices, AR glasses can even make the screen stable in space, like a massive, floating widescreen TV!  Now, think about how this can change the way you game with consoles like the Xbox or Steam Deck... We'll share all the awesome ways AR glasses can improve and enhance your gaming experience!  How Can AR Glasses Enhance your Gaming Experience? You might wonder how AR glasses could change, or even improve your current gaming set up - especially if you're already a fan of handheld consoles like the Steam Deck or ASUS ROG Ally. Here's how AR glasses can make gaming more immersive, convenient and over all better! 1. Big Screen Gaming , Anywhere and Anytime! With AR glasses and a USB-C cable, you can plug in your Steam Deck and start gaming on a massive screen: Big Screen on the Sofa:  Sink into your cozy couch and immerse yourself in gaming without the struggle of holding a heavy device. Big Screen in  the Bed:  Snuggle under the covers and play your favorite games while lying down, all without straining your neck. Big Screen in the Office: Escape into a different world during your lunch break, refresh your mind, body and soul with an immersive gaming experience. Big Screen while Travelling :  Using your handheld gaming consoles on the plane or train is already a no-brainer, but adding AR glasses turns the cabin into an exciting adventure with added privacy. 2. Instantly Improved Performance There's more to AR glasses than just a massive screen, check out these game-changing performance enhancements： Giant Screen Without Sacrificing Portability: Steam Deck has a screen, but it's only about 7 inches - plug in a pair of AR glasses and start gaming on an immersive 130-inch screen that weighs less than a regular TV! Improved Image Quality: While the  SteamDeck offers a 720p resolution, XREAL AR glasses can display a 1080p FHD screen, instantly providing a sharper, more vibrant display. Better Refresh Rate: Steam Deck has a decent refresh rate at 60Hz, with the OLED version having 90Hz, but XREAL AR glasses can go up to 120Hz. 120hz means a smooth, vivid screen meaning in-game environments load quicker and you can spot enemies faster. 3. Say Goodbye to Neck Pain Got a case of "gamer neck"? Or maybe you constantly feel the need to fix your posture while gaming?  One of the biggest benefits of AR glasses is how they literally free up your neck and back with how lighweight and versatile they are!  That means no more looking down at your screen or holding up a device that weighs over 600 grams. Just sit back, relax, and enjoy yourself! Video Source：A Futuristic Gaming Setup with the Steam Deck！by midasgamespace，Youtube，2023/04/23 4. Total Privacy We all have a couple of games that, while they might be some of our favorites, they're a bit embarassing to play around other people. AR glasses offer a level of privacy that regular screens can't match, so you can boot up those guilty-pleasure titles without a care in the world, even if your spouse or kids are nearby. 5. Ultra-Lightweight and Portable With multiple models that weigh in at just 60g-80g, AR glasses are incredibly lightweight and portable. Plus, they don't require charging! Just plug them via USB-C, and you're good to go. 6. Enhanced Spatial Screen While the human eye has a field of view of about 120 degrees horizontally and 90 degrees vertically, focus and clarity is limited to just a few degrees in the center. This is best demonstrated in video content like movies, TV shows and YouTube videos: all the action takes place in the middle of the video where our focus is best. When it comes to video games, the corners and edges of the screen are used to show information and details: maps, scoreboards, dialogue boxes, skill bars, and status bars...the list goes on. It requires players to frequently move their head, neck and eyes to see all the important information on screen. If you're using AR glasses that don't have a fixed screen or use Anchored Spatial Screen technology, tilting your head to check the mini-map or health bar can cause the screen to move around. This can become uncomfortable over time, leading you to strain your eyes or neck as you try to refocus or keep as still as possible to avoid the screen tilting. With this in mind, it could be argued that AR glasses without spatial Anchor screen technology can't quite be classified as true AR devices. XREAL is among some of the few companies that provide excellent spatial screen capabilities for AR glasses across all platforms through software solutions.  The 3 DoF (Degrees of Freedom) and 6 DoF capabilities allow the screen projected and fixed in a specific location in space, making it appear like a 130-inch monitor or TV screen. You can place this projected display relative to your distance (4m) or in a fixed location within the space. Why choose XREAL AR Glasses for Gaming? 1. XREAL: The First and Best-Selling AR Glasses XREAL is a leading figure in the AR industry, combining world-class AR technology with a user-friendly, sunglasses-like design. Since launch in September 2022, the XREAL Air AR Glasses have become immensely popular, frequently selling out online and winning multiple awards.

XREAL provides Anchored Spatial 3DoF or 6DoF Screen What is XREAL Anchored Spatial Screen? XREAL glasses are the only AR glasses that can perfectly achieve 3 DoF while allowing the screen to hover in space in a stable position. No matter where the user needs to look on the screen, they only need to slightly move their head. This is possible due to XREAL having the most mature, self-developed spatial algorithms in the AR industry. The milliseconds-level latency, high-precision tracking and motion compensation ensure the screen remains stable providing a comfortable experience. In contrast, less mature spatial computing products often exhibit noticeable image shaking, tearing, or drifting from even the slightest movement. See Product We call this an Anchored Spatial Screen, and it's currently the best in its class, receiving countless positive reviews from users and critics across the world. You can achieve an Anchored Spatial Screen for your game visuals by using XREAL Beam (through a wired or wireless connection), or XREAL Beam Pro's wireless projection and streaming capabilities in with your PC, gaming console, or handheld devices. XREAL Air 2 Ultra, the only consumer-grade 6DoF AR glasses on the market Using XREAL Air 2 Ultra, the screen feels even more realistic when placed in space from any direction. It completes the immersive experience by making your spatial display feel natural as your eyes interact with AR objects, just as they would with objects in real life!
