Stabilization

This chapter will detail the 「Stabilization」 feature of the xbx a01 series glasses to help you understand and use this feature correctly.

What is 「Stabilization」​

「Stabilization」 is an important feature of the xbx a01 series glasses. Through the built-in IMU sensor, it monitors head movement in real-time and compensates the display image in real-time to reduce image jitter during head movement, providing a more stable and comfortable visual experience. 「Stabilization」 is only available when the connected device's output refresh rate is 60/90/120Hz.

Device TypeSupportNotes
Mobile PhonesPartially SupportedRequires 60/90/120Hz refresh rate output support
TabletsPartially SupportedRequires 60/90/120Hz refresh rate output support
ComputersPartially SupportedRequires 60/90/120Hz refresh rate output support
Handheld Gaming DevicesPartially SupportedRequires 60/90/120Hz refresh rate output support
Game ConsolesNot SupportedCurrently not supported

If the connected device does not support 60/90/120Hz refresh rate output, the 「Stabilization」 feature will be grayed out and cannot be enabled.

Benefits of Stabilization​

  1. Enhance Movie Viewing Experience
  • Reduce dizziness: Reduce image jitter during head movement, reduce dizziness during long viewing sessions
  • Enhance immersion: Image follows natural head movement, providing a more realistic immersive experience
  • Improve mobile viewing: Still get stable images in mobile scenarios such as walking or riding transportation
  1. Enhance Gaming Experience
  • Reduce operation interference: Slight head movement will not affect game operation
  • Enhance spatial awareness: 3D scenes in games are more stable, improving spatial perception
  • Extend gaming time: Reduce visual fatigue, support longer gaming experiences
  1. Enhance Office Experience
  • Stable reading: Documents, web pages, and other content remain stable during slight head movement
  • Reduce eye fatigue: Stable images reduce eye adjustment burden
  • Improve focus: Reduce attention distraction caused by image jitter

How to Enable 「Stabilization」​

1. Modify the Refresh Rate of the Connected Device​

tip

When connecting a computer or gaming device, it is recommended to set the glasses to "Extended Display" mode. On some devices in "Mirror" mode, the system may limit the refresh rate of the external display, preventing normal activation of high refresh rates.

macOS​

「System Settings」 → 「Displays」 → Select display 「xbx a01」 as 「Extended Display」 → Select 「Refresh Rate」

iPhone/iPad​

iPhone and iPad usually manage the refresh rate of external displays automatically. There is no separate refresh rate setting option for external displays in the system. If 「Stabilization」 cannot be enabled, the current device output refresh rate may not meet the feature requirements.

Windows Computer / Windows Handheld (ROG Ally, Legion Go, etc.)​

「Settings」 → 「System」 → 「Screen」 → 「Advanced Display Settings」 → 「Select Refresh Rate」

Steam Deck​

「Settings」 → 「Display」 → 「Refresh Rate」

PlayStation 5​

  1. Enter 「Settings」 → 「Screen and Video」: Adjust system supported 「Resolution」 to 1080P, switch 「120Hz Output」 to Auto;
  2. Enter 「Settings」 → 「Saved Data and Game/App Settings」, adjust 「Performance Mode/Resolution Mode」 game preset to 「Performance Mode」;
  3. Open the game, in game 「Settings」-「Options」-「Display」, switch to 「Performance/Performance Plus」 high frame rate mode;
tip

If steps 1 and 2 were performed while the game was already open, you need to close the game before proceeding to step 3.

2. Enable 「Stabilization」 on the Glasses​

Click the 「X」 button to enable/disable 「Stabilization」.

Impact of Enabling 「Stabilization」​

  1. Stabilization processing requires additional computing resources. To ensure system stability, brightness levels are reduced from 14 levels to 10 levels.
  2. Enabling 「Stabilization」 makes the image more stable, but there may be slight image delay during rapid head movement.

Power-Off Memory​

「Stabilization」 supports power-off memory. The system will remember the last 「Stabilization」 setting:

  • Last connected to 60/90/120Hz device and enabled: Remains enabled on next connection
  • Last connected to 60/90/120Hz device but disabled: Remains disabled on next connection
  • Last connected to non-60/90/120Hz device: Disabled on next connection
  1. Movie viewing: Especially when watching long videos, stabilization can reduce fatigue
  2. Gaming: Especially first-person perspective games, enhancing immersion
  3. Mobile use: When walking or riding transportation
  4. Long-term use: Reduce eye fatigue and dizziness
  1. Static use: When keeping head still, stabilization effect is not obvious
  2. Requiring precise image: Such as precision operations, reading small text

Important Notes​

  • Refresh rate requirement: 「Stabilization」 is available at 60/90/120Hz refresh rates
  • Sensor accuracy: Excessively violent head movement may exceed sensor detection range

Troubleshooting​

  • Stabilization not working: Check if device output refresh rate is 60/90/120Hz
  • Image unstable: Try restarting device or reconnecting data cable
  • Brightness change: Reduced brightness levels after enabling stabilization is normal
