By using the detailed display only in the middle, you don’t need a supercomputer to run Varjo, and you can see a resolution of about 70 pixels per degree (PPD), which some reviewers have claimed to appear so detailed as to have no visible pixels or aliasing, like looking at real-world objects. The smaller central display is so detailed that if it filled each eye, the equivalent resolution would be 16k per eye. Varjo XR-3 and VR-3 headsets have very high resolution, which is made possible by using two displays: a small but very high resolution display in the middle of the headset, a larger display with a standard resolution, and a translucent mirror that blends the two images together seamlessly.
