Last Updated on January 24, 2022 by Kaushik Battu Leave a Comment

Project Iris headset is the next big thing from Google with Augmented Reality (AR) to compete with; Metaverse and upcoming tech from Microsoft and Apple. Previously, the tech giant was in the plan to bring the DayDream VR headsets as well as Google Glasses.

Now, the boom of Augmented Reality might have changed the direction of the company to concentrate on the AR world making them join the league after Facebook, Microsoft, and Apple.

Project Iris Google’s Upcoming AR Headset Details

The codename of these new AR headsets is Project Iris and Google may use a similar type of outer camera technology. The outward cameras on the headsets will blend computer graphics with a feed of the real world.

The headset from Google will work wirelessly and doesn’t require any tethered connection as per the reports. Moreover, Project Iris will feature the Silicon technology chipset from the last year’s announced Pixel 6 smartphone.

Project Iris Google AR

This Augmented Reality headset from Google looks like a pair of “ski goggles” with cameras on them which doesn’t require external power. Furthermore, the specific chipset used on the headsets is the GS101 chipset; however, the graphic-intensive visuals are sourced from a different point.

This means the headset requires an active internet connection; that receives the data from the data centers that remotely render graphics.

Besides, the Google Employee Clay Bavor that lead the Cardboard; DayDream VR as well as the recent big-time project of the company; Project Starline is working for this upcoming project.

Moreover, the list goes on featuring Google AR operating systems senior director Mark Lucovsky; ARCore manager Shahram Izadi, and former light-field camera startup Lytro CTO Kurt Akeley.
