2024 has come to a close and it has truly been one of the most exciting years in XR yet.
From the launch of VITURE One Lite (can you believe that was only one year ago?) to the exciting year-end launch of the VITURE Pro Neckband, we’ve covered an incredible amount of ground this year in building the go-to ecosystem for anyone who works, streams, games, and lives in XR!
We’ve expanded access to our line of XR tech around the world with new fulfillment partners, pushed the features and functions of our software to new heights, and watched our community blossom into one of the biggest future-forward tech cohorts on the internet — all setting us up to make 2025 even better. 😎
As we prepare to step into the new year, let’s look back on some of 2024’s greatest highlights!
Power Meets Affordability: VITURE One Lite!
The year had a strong start: on January 1st, 2024, we announced our most affordable XR glasses to date, VITURE One Lite XR Glasses!
This budget-friendly entrypoint to the our ecosystem hit the ground running with nearly all of the original VITURE One XR Glasses’ features, subbing out our convenient magnetic connection for standard USB-C as well as non-dimmable outer lenses (but an included Lens Shade attachment).
Not only was this our first significant expansion of our XR ecosystem, but it remains an excellent choice for anyone looking for a low cost of entry to XR. VITURE One Lite also arrived alongside an adapter that allows our Neckband to connect to any USB-C display, including external monitors and third-party glasses.
And to top it all off, we even brought back our limited-edition Marshmallow colorway in response to overwhelming popular demand (and still available exclusively on our website)!
New Horizons: SpaceWalker Goes Further Than Ever Before.
Just as we were all starting to dream of spring, we launched a pilot program that allowed users like you to put our newest apps to the test — and with everyone’s help and feedback we were able to quickly wrap up development and release SpaceWalker for Android and SpaceWalker for macOS, followed a bit later by SpaceWalker for Windows!
But we didn’t forget about SpaceWalker for iOS: development for our iPhone app has continued alongside our other platforms bringing exciting new features like spatial content support, the new XR Gallery wall, and in-app remote/cloud gaming with Moonlight, GeForce NOW, and Xbox Cloud Gaming!
SpaceWalker for macOS & Windows have been optimized for productivity in the meantime with loads of stability upgrades, improved display ratios, and more that make them a seamless extension of your workspace in the office, at the cafe, or on the go.
You can read our full backlog of SpaceWalker updates here — over 40 updates this year!
And perhaps most exciting of all? Our new Immersive 3D feature that converts nearly any content from 2D to 3D using the power of AI! This new feature just launched on iOS in time for the holidays and is coming soon to Android, with macOS & Windows support coming next year.
As always, SpaceWalker is a free app we’ve developed as a bonus to our users — together with our XR glasses, it’s the ultimate experience on any device! SpaceWalker is available on the App Store for iOS, Google Play for Android, and directly from our website for macOS & Windows. 📱 💻
A Paradigm Shift: Enter VITURE Pro.
We launched VITURE Pro in early summer and the XR landscape has never been the same!
VITURE Pro is the best of everything and the future of XR entertainment:
- A pair of XR glasses housing a bigger, better, and brighter 135" 120Hz Full HD virtual UltraClarity display, with full privacy and outer lenses that block over 99% of all external light! 🕶️
- A redesigned multi-functional Mobile Dock enabling on-the-go XR co-op entertainment on the Nintendo Switch and other devices, upgraded with 3D content support, a better battery, and compatibility with third-party displays; 😎 😎
- An exclusive collab controller made in partnership with 8BitDo for seamless control across platforms — a familiar Xbox form factor crossed with Nintendo’s signature layout, patterned on the color scheme of the limited edition Steam Deck OLED! 🎮
The VITURE Pro Collection has set new standards for what’s possible in XR — you can read more about it here.
As our full second generation of products, we sought to upgrade virtually every element of the experience we’d nearly perfected with VITURE One and the response was stunning — VITURE Pro XR Glasses quickly became our most popular product, gaining attention from niche enthusiasts to legacy media alike and carrying our market share in the US to the coveted #3 rank, just behind behemoths Meta and Sony! 📈
But we’re not stopping there. We’ve been hard at work on the next exciting piece of the collection: the VITURE Pro Neckband!
The VITURE Pro Neckband is packed with all the upgrades original Neckband users have been waiting for — no heat, no noise, and exciting new features like AR hand controls, multi-screen capabilities, an AI-powered voice assistant and more! Paired with VITURE Pro XR Glasses, you’ll unlock the ultimate duo for gaming, streaming, and working in XR anywhere, anytime.
Check out our launch video — the first batch has started shipping, but you can preorder yours for the next batch today!
We Couldn’t Have Done It Alone.
Our growth in our technology and capabilities this year was truly unprecedented, but 2024 also saw expansion on the business side — not only has our team grown, but we’ve also secured new funding from investors interested in financing the future of XR and formed new partnerships that have helped us reach even more of our community!
Since our first appearance on Amazon last year, we’ve expanded to new regions around the world including the UK, many members of the EU, Canada, Australia, the UAE, and more (you can see our full list of Amazon storefronts here). And earlier this fall we took another leap forward in being the first XR glasses to ever be selected to appear at Best Buy! Our partnership with Best Buy is currently online only, but stay tuned for potential in-person appearances at your local store in the future. 🏷️
But most importantly, we couldn’t have had such a successful year without you.
Thousands of you have flocked to our social media pages to follow along for updates on new releases and follow along as we spotlight members of our community using their XR kits. So many have shared videos and reviews about each piece of their setup. Our Reddit community has swelled to one of the top 5% across the entire website (side by side with legacy companies like Coca-Cola and dedicated fan subreddits like r/OcarinaOfTime!), and just as many participate in discussions on so many topics in Discord. It’s staggering!
The future we’re building is for our community, and it’s grown nearly tenfold over the last year — we’re eternally thankful for the support of each and every one of you. ❤️
Thank you for being part of our 2024 — we can’t wait for you to see what we have in store for 2025!
Cheers and happy new year from the VITURE Team. 😎😎😎😎😎
