2025-10-09xr

Mixed Reality (MR) technology is penetrating various fields at an unprecedented pace, with military training undoubtedly being one of its most breakthrough applications. Varjo's recently launched XR-4 series MR headset, designed for multi-dimensional military tasks across land, sea, and air, represents not just a simple hardware upgrade but a profound preview of future military training paradigms.

Varjo's XR-4 series MR headset is a revolutionary creation tailored for military training. This system seamlessly integrates with cockpits, vehicle simulators, and ground training platforms. The concept of "immersion" takes on a whole new meaning with this product.

The new headset emphasizes wearing comfort in its design. It features a redesigned headband with rear head counterweights and a detachable forehead strap, maintaining stability and comfort even in demanding training environments. More notably, it significantly enhances MR functionality: the pass-through cameras feature auto-focus and clever hand occlusion handling, making virtual and real interactions more natural; night vision mode supports low-light training; while predictive pass-through technology pushes training realism to new heights.

Regarding display performance, the XR-4 series stands as an industry leader. It boasts an ultra-high resolution of 51 pixels per degree and a wide field of view of 120 degrees horizontal and 105 degrees vertical. Combined with stereo pass-through cameras exceeding 20 million pixels, it perfectly inherits the excellent MR performance of its predecessor, the XR-3, ensuring trainees receive a near-real training experience.

The new model is also more compact, making it easier to deploy to training bases worldwide. More reassuringly, Varjo promises hardware and software support for this product until 2030, ensuring long-term operational reliability for military forces. For scenarios requiring high confidentiality, Varjo specifically offers the "XR-4 SECURE EDITION," manufactured in their Finnish factory without wireless communication capabilities, further ensuring information security. Currently, industrial and government organizations from over 40 countries and regions, including India and Turkey, are using Varjo's products, demonstrating their professionalism and reliability.

The introduction of the Varjo XR-4 series MR headset undoubtedly brings revolutionary changes to military training. It not only enhances training realism and efficiency but also injects new vitality into defense modernization through technological innovation. It's foreseeable that in the near future, MR technology will play an increasingly important role in the global military field, opening a new chapter in combat training.
