The design of Pico’s next headset leaked in videos from a public SDK, and it looks like a cross between Apple Vision Pro and Samsung Galaxy XR.<\/p>\n

After years of rumors, Pico and TikTok owner ByteDance officially publicly teased its next headset back in March<\/a>, calling it ‘Project Swan’.<\/p>\n

At the time, Pico said the headset will have micro-OLED panels with 4000 pixels per inch (PPI), a dual-chip architecture with a self-developed coprocessor for computer vision and image processing, and a new main processor that will have twice the CPU and GPU performance of the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2<\/a> in today’s Pico 4 Ultra and Meta Quest 3 headsets. It also detailed many of the visionOS-like features of Pico OS 6 and the RealityKit-like Pico Spatial Engine.<\/p>\n

ByteDance\u2019s Pico announced the key display and compute specs of its next headset, coming later this year, and detailed the revamped XR operating system it will run.<\/p>\n

While the company showed a stylized silhouette of the headset, it did not show an actual image or render, nor did it give any details at all about the design.<\/p>\n

But as first reported by XR enthusiast Luna<\/a>, videos depicting the design are present in a public Pico SDK.<\/p>\n

The clips show a headset that is clearly inspired by both Apple Vision Pro and Samsung Galaxy XR, with a rear strap almost identical to the former’s Solo Knit Band and a visor and forehead pad strongly resembling the latter.<\/p>\n

They show an external tethered puck of some kind, which may be a battery or also contain compute.<\/p>\n

Further, they depict the use of tracked controllers that strongly resemble the Pico 4 Ultra controller, including drawing a boundary, though it’s unclear whether they’ll be included in the box or not.<\/p>\n

What’s most clear here is that Pico’s next headset is taking on Apple and Samsung, not competing with Meta, and we expect a similarly high price point.<\/p>\n
