CES 2020: Nreal's mixed reality glasses win over CES sceptics
Beijing-based Nreal partnered with the chip-maker Qualcomm and a mobile phone network owned by LG to develop its product.
"We realised that the best way to get people to adopt this technology was to essentially integrate these mixed reality glasses with the devices that they already have in their hands, which is their smartphones," explained spokesman Francis Bay."There are trade-offs that you have to make, but making sure that we're able to keep this form factor - like sunglasses - [means] that people will not feel awkward or uncomfortable.
