Do the Sentinel XR Glasses block light and support brightness adjustment?Updated a month ago
Last Updated: July 22, 2025
Yes! The Sentinel XR Glasses are built for all lighting environments, whether you're gaming in direct sunlight or watching a movie on a red-eye flight. With electrochromic lens dimming and precise brightness control, you can fine-tune your visual experience anywhere.
Electrochromic lenses black out the lens so that 99.7% of light is blocked out to prevent screen glare.
10-Level Brightness Control
The glasses feature adjustable brightness up to 5000 nits, which translates to about 600 nits perceived brightness to your eyes. That’s more than enough for daylight use.
- Controlled via the App or function buttons on the glasses
Electrochromic Lens Technology
The Sentinel features inorganic electrochromic lenses that block up to 99.7% of ambient light, reducing glare and enhancing contrast in bright settings.
- Controlled with a dedicated button on the glasses frame or in-app
- Optional magnetic blackout hood (sold separately) provides full immersion by blocking peripheral light
