PICO-XR's official Weibo account recently officially announced that the highly anticipated new head-mounted display, PICO Space Pro, will be officially launched on September 2nd at 14:30. The official has set the theme of this product launch as "Start a New Spatial Experience."
The upcoming Space Pro headset is expected to be the mysterious device codenamed "Project Swan" that was accidentally exposed in the public SDK. In terms of design, the headset cleverly integrates the design essence of several industry benchmark products: its body uses a single woven headband design similar to Apple's Vision Pro, and the back of the headband has a particularly obvious style; while the front light-blocking pad and forehead cushion part show an造型 style similar to Samsung Galaxy XR.
In addition, the device is equipped with an independent external module, whose design style is very similar to the battery unit of Apple's Vision Pro. However, the official has not yet clearly stated the specific purpose of this module. It could be a simple external battery pack, or it may integrate some core computing units. In terms of interactive accessories, the headset is equipped with controllers with tracking functions, whose appearance design is highly consistent with the controllers of Pico4Ultra and supports a "drawing boundary area" function similar to Meta Quest. However, the official has not yet confirmed whether these controllers will be included as standard equipment in the package.
Regarding the core hardware specifications, the PICO Space Pro demonstrates strong technical strength. The headset will be equipped with high-precision micro-OLED display panels, with a pixel density as high as 4000 PPI, providing users with extremely delicate visual presentation. At the same time, it adopts an advanced dual-chip architecture: including a self-developed co-processor dedicated to computer vision and image processing, as well as a powerful new main processor. It is reported that the CPU and GPU performance of this main processor will reach twice that of the current Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2 Gen2 chip, which is widely used in mainstream devices such as Pico4Ultra and Meta Quest3. As the release date approaches, more details about this new generation of spatial computing devices will be fully revealed at the launch event.
