Output modalities

Visual

Visual

High-resolution displays are the primary visual output in the headset, enhanced by factors like resolution, refresh rate, field of view (FOV), and lens technology that improves clarity and minimizes glare, while the camera's passthrough video feed can also merge digital creations with the user's physical environment.

Audio

Audio

Spatial audio delivers a 3D audio experience by adapting to the user's head movements, channeling sound directly to the ears through built-in speakers. This creates the illusion that sounds are emanating from specific directions within an immersive environment.

Haptics

Haptics

Controllers feature haptic feedback mechanisms that enhance user interaction by providing physical sensations, like vibrations, when interacting with objects.
