Varjo

Non Equity Assistance in 2020
Varjo Technologies develops headset capable of both virtual and augmented reality. It uses that phrase with two meanings in mind. For one thing, the company’s headset offers resolution in the center of the screen that is good enough to hide individual pixels. But the headset’s display also mimics how human vision works in general. The high-density displays occupies the center of the field of view in headset, and surrounds by lower-resolution displays at the left and right edges. The company was founded in 2016 and is headquartered in Helsinki, Finland.
