The owner of Steam Deck got tired of his hands going numb after playing for a long time, so he created augmented reality for side-by-side gaming.

The Steam Deck has become a great gaming device for many, but not everyone is strong enough to hold it in their hands. An elegant solution has been found

The owner of Steam Deck under the nickname trixloko prefers to play while lying on his bed, but his hands go numb from long gaming sessions. The gamer got tired of this – he decided to think about how modern technologies could be used to solve such a problem.

He recently purchased xreal air pro 2 augmented reality glasses and wanted to create “gaming of the future”: lie on his bed, place the Steam Deck on his lap or a bedside table nearby, and through the glasses he could look at a huge game screen and control using a keyboard and mouse .

After discussing with other members of the Steam Deck community, the enthusiast took action. Soon trixloko published a photo “This is me playing Balatro” He placed the Valve device on the bedside table, and he lay down comfortably and enjoyed the gameplay – now his hands do not get tired from holding the Steam Deck.

The discussion participants highly appreciated this unconventional way of using the Steam Deck and the resourcefulness of trixloko.
