Explore varjo headsets

Dynamic real-world occlusion for mixed reality.

Get ready for the most natural blending of real and virtual elements ever experienced in an immersive training environment. Varjo XR-4 series video pass-through and high-resolution LiDAR sensors enable accurate room, object, body and hand occlusion with real-world objects in real time.

Varjo XR-4 series perfectly mixes real and virtual content. Users can fully interact with a physical panel, HOTAS or crew member to replicate real training scenarios with incredible true-to-life accuracy, eliminating negative training.

 

Stay comfortably immersed for longer.

Varjo XR-4 Series provides the highest resolution (up to 51 ppd) experienced in an immersive simulation and training environment. Users can read displays, controls, text, symbols and distant objects in perfect clarity in mixed reality.

Varjo headsets are ergonomically designed to be lightweight with a zero-gravity head band for maximum comfort – perfectly fitting any head shape and size. Combined automatic interpupillary distance (IPD) adjustment, and active cooling, they enable a comfortable experience even for extended XR/VR sessions without any simulator sickness.
