Viture has established itself as a leader in smart glasses, offering some of the top models currently on the market. As the demand for innovative tech accessories grows, the company has introduced its latest product: the Pro Neckband, designed to enhance the functionality of its smart glasses.
The Pro Neckband not only expands the capabilities of Viture’s smart glasses but also enhances battery longevity. Currently, users primarily operate Viture smart glasses through the Spacewalker app, available on both iOS and Android. This app allows users to display several virtual screens, browse the internet, and access content, but it is limited to this functionality without the ability to run other applications, which can be a drawback.
The Pro Neckband changes all of that. It operates as an independent Android device that Viture claims can support “millions of applications” within a multi-window spatial computing interface. The company refers to this advancement as “the enhancements you’ve been waiting for.”
Similar to the Xreal Beam Pro, the Pro Neckband incorporates advanced functionalities akin to Apple’s Vision Pro headset and Rokid’s AR Lite. It features a separate compute module, eliminating the need for smartphone connectivity.
While virtual reality devices like the Meta Quest 3S have taken cues from augmented reality with sophisticated mixed-reality capabilities, Viture’s smart glasses combined with the Pro Neckband introduce hand-tracking, a functionality traditionally found in VR.
The Pro Neckband utilizes hand gestures for control. With integrated sensors, it can recognize movements allowing users to manipulate windows and interact with applications through simple wave and pinch motions.
For those familiar with the original Neckband, the Pro Neckband boasts performance enhancements, offering speeds seven times faster and a GPU that is 40 times more powerful. It also features a lightweight design, longer battery life, and is powered by a 6nm 8-core processor, accommodating up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, alongside Bluetooth and Wi-Fi 6E connectivity.
This robust memory capacity supports Viture’s AI assistant, named Vizard, and provides ample space for games and multimedia content. Users can stream from platforms like YouTube and Netflix, enjoying 3D movies or employing Viture’s AI to convert 2D videos into an immersive 3D experience.
We’re excited to try out this new accessory, as it could position Viture One and Pro smart glasses among the leading wearable AR devices available today.
