Tobii announces design win for Pimax Dream Air - Provides eye tracking for the new compact headset
Tobii, the world leader in eye tracking and pioneer of attention computing, today announces a design win for Pimax’s new headset Dream Air. Tobii and Pimax has an established relationship, with Tobii’s eye tracking technology being integrated in the Pimax Crystal headset launched in 2023.
Pimax’s new headset Dream Air - open for pre-orders and shipping in December 2025 - is designed to be the world’s smallest full-feature 8K Micro-OLED VR headset. Tobii’s high-accuracy eye tracking solution optimized for compact headsets proved instrumental for achieving this form factor.
“Together with Tobii, we took on a real engineering challenge. We needed a precise, low-latency eye-tracking solution that could operate in the tight confines dictated by our Pancake optics," said Robin Weng, Founder of Pimax. "Tobii’s solution delivered eye tracking that is optimized for a flawless user experience with Dynamic Foveated Rendering.”
"Pimax approached us with an exciting challenge driven by their ambitious hardware design,” said Emma Bauer, Senior Vice President of Integrations at Tobii. “Our team takes pride in delivering an eye-tracking solution to adress Pimax’s unique form-factor requirements while also being scalable with low complexity for mass production.”
