Varjo XR-4 Focal Edition

Varjo XR-4 Focal Edition for Mixed Reality

Varjo XR-4 Focal Edition (2026) is a mixed reality headset that combines digital and real-world imagery. It is designed for teams working on simulations, training and XR projects. Its gaze-driven autofocus adjusts the view of the surroundings to where you are looking.

A clearer view of your surroundings

Two 20 MP color cameras show the surroundings at up to 51 PPD. Gaze-driven autofocus helps keep the image clear as you look between different parts of the scene. The 300 KPIX LiDAR with a 7 m range supplies depth data. Masking, chroma key and hand occlusion help blend digital objects with the surroundings. Chroma key, hand occlusion and Night Mode, which simulates nighttime lighting, require Varjo Base Pro.

Detail across a wide field of view

Dual mini-LED displays offer a resolution of 3840 × 3744 px per eye. The field of view is 120° horizontally and 105° vertically, so you can view a wide scene without constantly turning your head toward its individual areas. The 1:10,000 contrast ratio helps distinguish bright and dark areas. Coverage of 98% sRGB and 96% DCI-P3 matters when assessing colors, while the 90 Hz refresh rate supports smooth viewing of motion.

Control without additional sensors

200 Hz eye tracking records gaze direction during use. Built-in optical hand tracking is in beta. The optional Ultraleap Leap Motion Controller 2 provides another tracking method. Inside-out tracking needs no base stations; SteamVR Tracking uses compatible SteamVR base stations and controllers. Automatic IPD adjustment from 56 to 72 mm makes it easier to share the headset.

Choose a compatible computer

PCVR mode requires a compatible PC, DisplayPort 1.4 or later and USB-C with at least 10 Gbps. The port must support multiple IN transactions through a compatible chipset or expansion card. A laptop video adapter must support 8K and DSC and connect directly to the dedicated NVIDIA GPU. A USB-C adapter also requires DisplayPort Alternate Mode. The minimum RAM is 32 GB. Supported systems are Windows 10 64-bit v1809 or later and Windows 11 v21H2 or later. The headset requires Varjo Base 4.13 or later.

Audio and fit

Integrated DTS spatial audio speakers provide sound without a separate audio device. Noise-cancelling microphones handle voice communication, and the 3.5 mm jack lets you use your own audio equipment.
