Xreal Unveils Project Aura: Smart Glasses with Android XR for Everyday Use. |
At Google I/O 2025, Xreal made a big splash by introducing Project Aura, a pair of smart glasses designed for everyday wear. What’s cool is that these glasses look just like regular sunglasses but are packed with advanced technology under their sleek design.
Yes, Project Aura isn’t your ordinary pair of glasses. They come with built-in cameras located on the temples and nose bridge, microphones, and control buttons that let you operate various features without any hassle. Plus, these glasses run on the Android XR platform, making them only the second device to use this system after Samsung’s Project Moohan headset. The difference? While Project Moohan is a bulky headset, Aura is slim and stylish—perfect for daily use.
One of the standout features is the “optical transparency” technology that lets you adjust the lens tint level. So, whether you want to clearly see your surroundings or focus on the digital display, you can switch it up easily. Pretty flexible, right?
Project Aura is powered by a Qualcomm chipset optimized for augmented reality (AR) experiences. These glasses can connect to your smartphone or laptop, displaying digital content like movies, documents, or apps right on the lenses—literally right in front of your eyes.
What’s really exciting is the built-in AI Gemini, Google’s artificial intelligence assistant that supports voice commands. Just speak, and the glasses will respond. Plus, the glasses offer a wide field of view, making the virtual experience much more immersive.
Xreal and Google also emphasize that this device is built for a new generation of XR (extended reality) applications. If you already have Android XR apps, adapting them to Project Aura should be pretty straightforward.
For now, Xreal hasn’t shared details about the price or full specs. But don’t worry—all the info will be revealed at the Augmented World Expo on June 10, 2025. The commercial launch will follow once a solid app ecosystem is in place.
With its sleek design and cutting-edge technology, Xreal Project Aura could change how we interact with digital content daily. It’s perfect for anyone who wants stylish eyewear without compromising on tech. Let’s stay tuned for more updates later this year!
