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.

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)
