Most Extended Reality (XR) headsets struggle when the lights go down, turning otherwise useful tools into blurry messes in dim settings. That is common knowledge. But what if these headsets could actually see better in the dark? A new approach called NoctuaXR is testing that idea by making headsets
Skin cancer cases are climbing fast in the UK, and the NHS is struggling to keep up. Hospitals get packed with patients needing quick checks for suspicious spots, but there aren’t enough skin doctors to go around.
