Apple’s long-awaited AR/VR headset project is finally taking shape, according to the Wall Street Journal. The publication on Friday outlined what to expect from this ambitious new endeavor, corroborating several details that have been circulating for months. According to their report, Apple has developed a device with capabilities “far exceeding” those of rival products currently available in the market.
The headset is said to feature ultra-high resolution displays and advanced eye-tracking technology powered by Apple’s own custom processors and graphics cards. It will also be equipped with a powerful onboard computer capable of running apps independently without relying on an external connection or other devices like smartphones or PCs as most existing headsets do today. Additionally, it will come bundled with its operating system designed specifically for virtual reality experiences — something no other product offers at present either.
Furthermore, sources familiar with the matter suggest that Apple plans to include some form of augmented reality functionality into its upcoming device too — though exactly how remains unclear at this point given they are still working out all the kinks before launch day arrives sometime next year (2021). All things considered, though it looks like we can look forward to some truly groundbreaking tech coming our way soon enough!
