The Apple WWDC event in June 2023 will be one for the ages. Apple will host the annual event in Steve Jobs theatre which will mark it’s first step towards a post-iPhone era.
It is rumored that Apple will unveil Reality Pro, it’s long-anticipated mixed-reality headset.
The roughly $3,000 device will have the capability to switch between AR and VR.
Here’s how it will work:
The headset will have several external cameras that can analyze a user’s hands, as well as sensors within the gadget’s housing to read eyes.
It will allow the wearer to control the device by looking at an on-screen item — whether it’s a button, app icon or list entry — to select it.
Users will then pinch their thumb and index finger together to activate the task — without the need to hold anything.
The approach differs from other headsets, like Meta’s Oculus, which typically rely on a hand controller.
The headset also will be able to show immersive video content, serve as an external display for a connected Mac, and replicate many functions of iPhones and iPads.
What are your thoughts on Apple’s potential entry into the headset device market?
