Treeview and VR Expert partner to bring enterprise apps to XREAL Aura

On September 2, 2026, Treeview and VR Expert announced a partnership to help enterprise teams evaluate, build and deploy custom applications for XREAL Aura, the first optical see-through glasses running Android XR.

VR Expert, based in Utrecht, the Netherlands, supplies enterprise XR hardware and runs installation, fleet management and support. It is an authorized reseller for Meta, HTC, Pico and Microsoft, holds ISO 9001 certification and has teams across Benelux, DACH, France, Spain, Italy, Poland, the Nordics, Central and Eastern Europe and the United States.

Treeview has built custom XR software since 2016 for clients including Microsoft, Meta, Medtronic, Toyota and ULTA Beauty. Together, the two companies cover the device and the application that runs on it.

Enterprise deployment

The partnership takes an enterprise team through five stages with the same two partners:

• Use-case discovery

• Aura demos and hardware evaluation

• Rapid prototyping

• Custom Android XR or Unity development

• Rollout support

Teams try the hardware and test a prototype before they commit to a full build. VR Expert can then supply anything from a single unit to a fleet of thousands.

XREAL Aura

XREAL built Aura with Google and Qualcomm, and it ships with Gemini built in. The glasses offer a 70-degree field of view, dual Sony micro-OLED displays at 1920 by 1200 per eye with refresh rates up to 120Hz, electrochromic dimming and support for prescription inserts. They weigh under 95 grams.

Compute runs on a tethered puck with Snapdragon Reality Elite, XREAL's X1S spatial coprocessor and a 4,455mAh battery.

XREAL revealed Aura at AWE USA on June 16. At the time of the announcement, XREAL planned to launch it later in 2026 in the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan and South Korea, with Europe to follow. XREAL had not announced a price, and said the base model would not exceed US$1,500.

Optical see-through

On an optical see-through display, the wearer sees the real world directly through the lenses, with digital content layered on top. Passthrough headsets show the world through cameras instead.

Direct sight keeps people aware of their surroundings on a factory floor, in a clinic or at a heritage site. Electrochromic dimming lets the same glasses work indoors and in bright light.

Treeview has built enterprise apps on Aura since before its public reveal. In June, a team led by Treeview won Google's first Android XR Hackathon on early Aura hardware.

Enterprise use cases

The partners are starting with seven enterprise use cases:

• Training and guided workflows: step-by-step instructions in view while hands stay on the task

• Education: 3D content placed in a real classroom or lab

• Digital twins: live data layered over the equipment it describes

• Remote expert support: a specialist sees what a field worker sees and guides the work

• Healthcare simulations: anatomy and procedures rehearsed in a real room

• Cultural and historical onsite experiences: reconstructions overlaid on the original site

• Brand activations: product experiences at events and in stores

“VR Expert is one of the world's leading XR hardware providers, and Treeview is one of the top studios building custom enterprise XR software,” said Horacio Torrendell, Treeview's founder and CEO. “Together we cover the full enterprise deployment path.”
