Virtual reality headsets are notoriously heavy, cumbersome and connected to systems with wires, so the 'Dlodo V1' is a lightweight headset that aims to change these perceptions. Created by Dlodo Technology in California, the 'Dlodo V1' headset features a design aesthetic that makes it more like a traditional pair of glasses rather than a computer on your face.

The 'Dlodo V1' headset works with the accompanying [D1](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sunflower-header) computer system that is inspired by the design and size of a smartphone. This enables users to bring the D1 and the 'Dlodo V1' lightweight headset with them just about anywhere they go for virtual reality experiences whenever they want or require.

The 'Dlodo V1' headset is currently being funded as part of a [Kickstarter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ar-lite) campaign.
