    Well it’s an AR headset. They have different design goals.

      Its not AR, an AR headset is something like HoloLens, this is just a VR headset with your eyes on the front.

        Oh, OK. I haven’t been following it. I assumed it was AR because I saw something about someone walking around with it on. I don’t get it if it’s VR.

      It’s being marketed as an AR headset, but it’s fully sealed and you can totally load up VR environments in it with no pass through.

      IMHO, they’re not mentioning “VR” in the marketing because the pure VR software library is anemic, and the mixed reality / AR hardware and software is really good.
