NIO offers a large movie library and an all-sensory immersive cockpit experience called PanoCinema, when combined with NIO Air AR glasses, NIO users can view a 130-inch virtual screen as they ride in style.
“Co-developed by XREAL and NIO, NIO Air AR glasses and N-Box become crucial parts of NIO’s PanoCinema, which is the in-car entrainment system of the digital cockpit. XREAL and NIO co-developed the innovative sensor fusion technologies to combine the realtime car data from the AD sensor and the user’s head pose from the glasses. Powered by this innovative technology, NIO users could enjoy an extraordinary immersive cinema experience with a huge virtual screen and Dolby Sound system, even when the car is in motion. We will keep working together to push the boundary of immersive entrainment contents and interactive applications accessible on AR glasses, revealing more spatial interactive experience in vehicles,” said Ted Li, Vice President of NIO, Head of Product Experience.
