Samsung Unveils Project Moohan at Galaxy Unpacked

Samsung unveiled its first VR headset, Project Moohan, at the Galaxy Unpacked event in San Jose, developed in partnership with Google and powered by Qualcomm. The headset, running on Google's newly developed Android XR OS, integrates Google services including the AI assistant Gemini, and offers both mixed and fully immersive reality experiences. Samsung aims to compete with Apple's Vision Pro by focusing on comfort and accessibility, positioning the headset as a more affordable option with an ergonomic design, although details on weight and final design are pending. The collaboration with Google ensures a robust ecosystem of apps, with futuristic updates such as enhanced Google Maps expected to enhance the XR experience. Despite some criticism for its design similarities to the Vision Pro, Samsung's strategic partnership and market research could make Project Moohan a competitive product in the XR space set to launch in 2025.
