Snapdragon XR: Qualcomm is set to organise its first-ever Snapdragon XR Day on July 21 in New Delhi, which will highlight the future of extended reality (XR) technologies. The company confirmed in a press release that the event will demonstrate innovations in augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR) — all powered by its Snapdragon platforms.

Attendees will get a hands-on look at how spatial computing is transforming real-world sectors like entertainment, fitness, education, and healthcare. As XR continues to pick up pace globally, the event also aims to serve as a collaborative space for developers, OEMs, and ecosystem partners to present live demos, early prototypes, and current XR projects.

“The event will highlight real-world applications across entertainment, health, fitness, and education. It will also bring together an ecosystem of developers, OEMs, and partners to unveil new collaborations and demonstrate breakthrough use cases,” the company said.

One of the technologies expected to be in the spotlight is Qualcomm’s Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 platform, the same chip that powers devices like the Meta Quest 3 headset. At the event, this platform will most likely be showcased in demos of real-time spatial awareness, high-end graphics, and sensor integration — critical building blocks for next-generation immersive XR experiences.

Snapdragon XR Day is well-timed, considering growing interest in spatial computing extends beyond gaming. Remotely collaborative environments, industrial design, and medical training are all looking to XR-enabled solutions in increasing numbers.
