    XREAL Air 2 Pro glasses to give you a virtual “100 inch” display.

    Wow!

    It’s an ARM-based PC

    Good!

    it runs a custom operating system called SpaceOS, which is a built on top of Google’s ChromiumOS

    Unless the bootloader is unlocked and it’s possible to write an open driver for the glasses, Bye.

      There are people reverse engineering the glasses right now (I have a pair):

      One of my longshot projects is to convert my framework laptop main board to exactly this. I basically use the glasses a lot more than the screen at this point (it’s more convenient at night before bed)

      Damn! I was all aboard until the Chrome OS bullshit part. I don’t want a computer that runs on a phone operating system.

        You are thinking of Android. Chromium OS is based on desktop Linux code.
