Samsung already announced the name for the new headset: "Galaxy XR," and constant rumors are that the 3D camera on the next Galaxy phone will feature perfect mobile photography and extended reality experiences.
Future Experiences by Samsung Galaxy XR
As the name entails Galaxy XR, it is going to be an Extended Reality (XR) headset, which will fuse both Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR). This device is highly anticipated to be Samsung's competitor to the Apple Vision Pro. Sources say that it has partnered with Google and Qualcomm to manufacture this headset, which means that it is going to have much power and AI capabilities.
If this works out, it definitely allows the user to interact with virtual content directly; think, in the future, gaming, virtual meetings, or live 3D views.
3D Cameras Are Coming into Smartphones
It looks like future devices from this brand will have 3D camera features integrated. Users will only need to scan a real-world scene in high-resolution 3D images and carry out spatial mapping via the 3D camera they have on their phones. Through this, a user can turn real-life objects into 3D models that would be used with the XR headset.
This camera feature will majorly benefit:
3D object scanning
Virtual interior design
AR advanced gaming
Medical and engineering XR applications
Why This Is Noteworthy
These two innovations put forth by this company will push the frontier of technology a little further. On the one hand, Apple has smuggled itself into XR territory with the Vision Pro. Samsung is well prepared because Galaxy XR and the 3D camera feature will translate this experience for Android users.
The Galaxy XR headset and the 3D camera are the bridge into tomorrow's mobile world of virtual reality. And for those paying attention among the tech lovers, this is a big announcement. What remains, however, is the fresh question of when the market will see the real product.
