Challenge

Immersive gaming without the headset bulk

XVAKION wanted a VR gaming product that broke from the standard bulky headset, without sacrificing the display quality serious gamers expect. The brief centred on ergonomics, comfort and weight, the three things most VR hardware trades away for processing power.

Stripping internal technology down to the essentials

We reduced the internal technology footprint to achieve an ultra-light form, engineering dual ultra-high-resolution displays into a glasses-style housing that works across PlayStation 5, Xbox and PC.

Outcome

The result is one of the first ultra-light VR gaming glasses of its kind, built for comfort over extended sessions rather than short demos.

Technical Insights:

Industrial design (Creativity)

Glasses-style form engineered around ergonomics, comfort and weight reduction

Electronic engineering (Capability)

Dual ultra-high-resolution displays integrated into a reduced internal technology footprint, compatible across major gaming platforms
