What is the GOOVIS LITE?

The GOOVIS LITE is a personal cinema screen that you wear on your head similar to a VR headset or heads up display. It is the largest and the clearest personal display available to buy today. The GOOVIS is a dual 0.49″ M-OLED display that appears like a 600-inch television in your vision.

With this super high quality and large screen, you can mirror any display you have. You can duplicate your phone, laptop, TV and other devices in your vision either wirelessly or with an HDMI cable. The hardware supports all of the latest protocols as well including DLAN, Miracast, and Airplay 2.

The LITE goes with you anywhere and provides total privacy. Only you see what you are watching.

This headset is similar to the GodView V5 which we featured previously.

Pixel Per Degree

Pixel per degree is a good measure of the quality of screen on a head display. Assuming the display covers your entire vision, a higher PPD means that the headset is clear and high quality.

The PPD on the GOOVIS is 53, highest in the industry. This is 9 times more than the Apple iPhone 12 Pro and 3 times more than other HMDs.

Distortion Control

Most VR headsets available today use an aspherical lens. This means that it has a “sweet spot” in the center of your vision and a distorted image in the corners of the display.

The screen on this hardware has a distortion rating of less than 1.5%, so that even the edges are clear.

Wireless Cast or HDMI

The GOOVIS comes with two different options for connecting to your devices and bringing the display into your HMD.

The first option is the GOOVIS Wireless Cast. It plugs into your HMD and allows your computer, phone, or tablet to connect to it and wireless stream its display. It’s the best way to watch or use media in your headset without a fully tethered wire.

The GOOVIS Lite also contains an HDMI output which can connect to all the connection options above.
