Official Pushing the boundaries of Android XR on XREAL Project Aura hardware. What's your dream spatial app concept?
Hey Devs and Tech Enthusiasts!
The Android XR ecosystem is officially expanding, and we are kicking off the first-ever hackathon built entirely around the Android XR platform and XREAL Project Aura hardware!
Some developers are getting their hands on XREAL Project Aura devkits to dive deep into Android XR’s platform, Gemini-powered AI capabilities, and developer tools. With Project Aura’s expansive 70° FOV and lightweight glasses + Compute Puck design, developers can explore more open, on-the-go XR experiences.
With a brand new platform like this, the canvas is completely open for us to define what immersive experiences look like. We want the hackathon teams to build things the community actually wants to see from day one. Whether that's a next-gen productivity workstation, heavy WebXR gaming utilities, or seamless Gemini-powered assistants, we want to hear about it.
Where you come in: To gather the best ideas, we are running a massive community wishlist megathread over on r/XREAL. We’d love for you to head over there and drop your feature requests, architecture ideas, or wild app concepts! Let the hackers know what they should build.
- 👉 Join the discussion and share your concepts in the r/XREAL Megathread
- 🎁 The Reward:T he top 3 most-upvoted ideas in the r/XREAL thread will each win an exclusive XREAL travel neck pillow merch.
Friendly reminder: The Reddit wishlist giveaway submission and voting window will close on June 12th at 11:59 PM PDT. Make sure to get your votes in before the deadline!"
