Sources say Samsung XR Touxian will bring support for smell and further enhance the sense of immersion.

CTOnews.com, Sept. 11 (Xinhua)-- Samsung announced its upcoming XR headshow, which was developed in partnership with Google and Qualcomm, earlier this year. Samsung has been working on a high-end stand-alone hybrid reality display after it stopped developing the Gear VR series, which uses smartphones as screens and processors. Now there are rumors that this headset will bring a revolutionary new feature.

Samsung's new XR head is very interesting, according to whistleblower Revegnus (@ Tech_Reve). The device draws a lot of inspiration from Apple's Vision Pro and has a screen with a pixel density of about 3000 ppi, and Samsung is expected to add gesture support similar to Apple's XR head display. But more importantly, it was revealed that the headset also supports "smell". It is not clear whether it will be able to sense or create odors, but it is likely to be the latter, which will further enhance the immersion of the VR experience. In electronics, there are not many technological advances that can make devices smell, but if Samsung can do so, it will undoubtedly be a breakthrough.

However, CTOnews.com needs to be reminded that please treat these revelations with caution, as the whistleblower has been wrong many times in the past.

It is almost certain that Samsung's XR hybrid reality display will use Qualcomm's processor and run an operating system developed by Google. There may be multiple cameras and other sensors, and eMagin's microLED screen may be used, and we will have to wait a few more months to get exact information about the new device.
