The announcement showcases Sony’s commitment to supporting professional creators and hobbyists by making high-quality 3D GC tools easier to use and more affordable. Traditionally, creating 3D content requires expensive equipment and advanced technical skills, which limited access to only a small group of experts. with the introduction of the XYN XR Headset, Sony aims to break these barriers, ensuring that more people, regardless of their background or experience level, can access the tools needed to bring their creative visions to life.

Features of XYN XR Headset

Integrated Sensors for Full Body Tracking – The headset uses Mocopi sensors which are small lightweight devices for tracking human actions in real time. It gives the device an edge over others in motion detection.

XYN Motion Studio- It is a PC application set for release in late March 2025, designed to work with up to 12 mocopi® sensors. It leverages Sony’s proprietary algorithms to offer advanced features like automatic motion interpolation and auto-tagging, enhancing the creative use of motion data. The application connects with mocopi sensors via dedicated receivers in professional mode, improving precision and enabling more detailed full-body tracking. This makes motion capture more affordable and accessible for creators in game development, film, animation, and VR. The mocopi system, already popular among VTubers and VR platform users, is now equipped with even more powerful editing and motion data features to support a wide range of creative applications.

High-Resolution Displays:- The XYN XR Headset features a high-resolution display for both virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) experiences. The XYN headset is equipped with 4K OLED microdisplays which are designed to deliver high-quality, crisp vibrant visuals.

The display is capable of giving a high level of detail which will eventually result in making virtual and mixed reality content come to life with rich clarity.

Third-Party Software Compatibility:- Give developers a wide range of options for creating more creatively using third-party software compatibility, Compatibility with Gaming engines, Custom applications, third-party AR/VR Applications, and many more.

video See-through Functionality:- This function allows users to experience the real-world view around them overlaying the virtual content onto their real-world environment. This enables users to experience both real-world environments and virtual elements simultaneously.
