XRSpace sees the traditional virtual reality experience as gimmicky, lonely and complicated, and the startup is on a mission to offer a social-first experience that's intuitive and inviting. The XRSpace Mova, created by former HTC CEO Peter Chou, is described as a compact and lightweight VR—or "XR"—experience. Notably, the headset is also the first of its kind to offer 5G.
The lightweight headset comes in at just 470 grams and connects people to lifelike avatars so that people can visit virtual spaces together and explore. There are many disjointed virtual experiences that can be had with different virtual reality headsets but this one sets itself apart by offering a seamless way for people to step into "the first social XR in 5G" and use natural movements to interact with others.
