Chi previously worked at NVIDIA as a software engineer and founded XREAL, then Nreal, in 2017. With Chi’s strategic vision, XREAL developed its inaugural AR glasses, the 6DOF revolutionary Light, accompanied by XREAL's self-developed 3D system called Nebula, which received extensive positive responses during CES 2019 and 2020 for its sleek form factor and impressive image quality. Under Chi's leadership, XREAL developed and released award-winning, recording-setting AR glasses in Air, Air 2 and Air 2 Pro between 2022 and 2023.
