Sony is launching the Xyn (pronounced zin ), an “extended reality” headset for creating 3D objects for films, animation, and games. The device, which Sony first teased at CES last year, will come with 4K OLED displays, video passthrough, and support for third-party design, modeling, and production software.

This positions the XYN Headset as a content creation device, rather than a consumption device for gaming, video calling or watching a movie. Instead, the prototype headset is aimed at creatives who want to delve into 3D production and 3D character modelling.

Sony has unveiled its latest innovation, the Xyn (pronounced zin), an "extended reality" headset designed specifically for crafting 3D content. The advanced device is targeted at making the creation process easier in fields like animation,

XYN’s spatial capture employs a mirrorless camera, converting real objects and spaces into high-quality 3D objects.

Sony's XYN headset and software application could transform the creative landscape with a focus on spatial capture solutions.
