We are building XenevaOS because we’re tired of seeing XR hardware held back by mobile-first operating systems. Android is great for phones, but the overhead and the non-deterministic nature of any other scheduler make it a struggle for low-latency spatial computing. Our custom kernel, Aurora, is built to handle real-time priority based interrupt handling, minimal IPC overhead & focuses on minimizing abstraction layers to achieve low latency and optimization. Codebase is open for feedback here: https://github.com/manaskamal/XenevaOS We're a small team and we’d love to hear from people who have worked on custom kernels or XR display stacks. What are we missing?

Show HN: Launching Our XR-Native Operating System

Hello HN, we are thrilled to announce that we are now launching the Beta Version of XenevaOS as a sandbox next month. For the first time, you’ll be able to experience our Free & Open Source Operating System that has been written with a custom kernel from the ground up for XR. The finished version of the Operating System is targeted to run on XR (AR/VR/MR) devices natively in a standalone manner. The main advantage of our OS is the fact that since it has a custom kernel specifically written for XR, it is able to achieve very low latency and is optimized for target hardware. It will be able to run efficiently on minimal hardware resources. One of the ways we're making this possible is by minimizing abstraction layers. Due to limited server access, user slots are also limited in the initial rollout. Register through the following link to be

Show HN: An Open Source XR(AR/VR) Operating System

We're two college students building an XR(AR/VR) native Operating System with a custom kernel. We're also Open Source so feel free to check our GitHub Repository- https://github.com/manaskamal/XenevaOS . The journey hasn't exactly been easy, we've been criticized by a lot saying that whatever we're doing is impractical and that we're too ambitious. Regardless, we've been committed to reach our goal. Here to answer all questions and doubts. Answering one question beforehand because we know someone is going to ask it - Q: Why use your own kernel/ Why don't you use Linux/ Why are you trying to reinvent the wheel? A: Using our own kernel helps us get rid of the baggage of legacy codes, bring the most optimal performance on our target hardware (XR/AR/VR) and achieve more efficiency than what we would've achieved on an existing kernel. We're n
