Mixed Reality headset

Last month, Samsung said it was developing a mixed-reality headset in collaboration with Qualcomm and Google. While little is known about Samsung's mixed reality headsets, a recent US trademark application by the South Korean tech behemoth implies that the device may be marketed as 'Galaxy Glasses.'

 The Galaxy Glasses trademark registration

The Galaxy Glasses trademark registration encompasses virtual reality headsets, augmented reality headsets, headphones, smartphones, and smart glasses. Companies frequently file trademarks for various items to experiment with the concept. Yet, it is too soon to tell if the Samsung Galaxy Glass will be a headset or a smart glass.

The business has also registered a trademark for the 'Galaxy Ring,' a wearable smart ring that can track, measure, monitor, and upload health, fitness, and sleep-related data.

Samsung may not have to wait long to reveal these gadgets.

There has yet to be a word on whether or if the two gadgets will be commercially available or whether they are interconnected or function independently. But, because the trademarks have been filed in public records, Samsung may not have to wait long to reveal these gadgets.

With mainstays like the Meta Quest series and the rumours of Apple releasing its headgear, consumer AR and VR technology constantly expands. Recently, Samsung (in collaboration with Qualcomm and Google) revealed its plans to develop "extended reality" gear shortly.

Conclusion

As of this week, the benefits of that collaboration may be seen as a new US trademark filed by Samsung, exposing the brand name "Galaxy Glasses." The name alone conjures up images of smart glasses akin to North's Focals or Ray-Ban Stories, but the whole programme also includes "headsets" for both AR and VR use. Meta unveiled the Quest Pro virtual reality headset in October of last year at a premium price of $1,500. Soon after, Apple hopped on board and is rumoured to work on a mixed-reality headset to compete with Meta's newest VR gear
