The teardown

Nothing in here is hidden from you.

Twelve parts, every one serviceable, every one named. Keep scrolling and it comes apart.

In the room

Three things a screen could never do.

Lucid One puts your work, your films and your models into the room you are already in, at the size they should have been all along.

Work, at the size it deserves

Three panels where a monitor used to be. Pin one to the desk, one to the wall, and take the third with you to the kettle.

A cinema that fits in a flat

A screen the width of the room, in a room that does not have one. Sound aimed at your ears and nobody else’s.

A model at true scale, on the bench, turned by hand. The chair exists before the first cut.

Made to be worn

The weight is on the band. The band is on you.

Everything heavy sits at the back of the head, where necks are built to carry it. The visor in front weighs what a pair of sunglasses does, and the frame between them is mostly air.

On the face
284 g. The band carries it; the visor carries nothing.
Frame
One piece of machined aluminium, 61 g. The heat leaves through it, so nothing else has to.
Halo band
Knitted, breathable, swappable in ten seconds. Titanium, woven or carbon.
A full day
Six hours on the frame, all day with the pocket cell, which weighs less than a phone.
Prescription
Bonded inserts made to your prescription at the factory. No clip-ons.

Build yours

Three decisions, then it's yours.

Before you reserve

Asked, every day, in the studios.

“The first headset I forgot I was wearing. That is the whole review.”

Signal Magazine

“The teardown page alone should embarrass most hardware companies.”

Loupe

“A monitor that comes with you to the kitchen. I did not know I wanted that until it happened.”

The Desk Review
Can I wear it with glasses?

You will not need to. Send your prescription after ordering and the optical inserts are bonded at the factory, single vision or varifocal. Contact lenses work as they are.

How long does the battery last?

About six hours on the frame alone. The pocket cell adds a full working day and charges the frame while you wear it.

Does it work with my laptop?

Yes, over the local network, with no cable. Mac, Windows and Linux. Your existing windows become panels; nothing has to be rewritten.

What if it does not suit me?

Thirty days, no questions. Try it in a studio first if you would rather: London, Manchester and Bristol, no appointment needed.

When does it ship?

March, in the order reservations were placed. A reservation is a place in the queue, not a payment.
