Everything you need to know about Apple’s virtual reality glasses

Tom’s Guide has published a report about Apple developing smart augmented reality glasses.

However, these glasses are still largely mysterious due to the lack of leaks and reliable news related to them, and it is expected that these glasses will not arrive before at least two years, and the company will most likely launch the augmented virtual reality device before these smart glasses.

 

special operating system

 

 

It is reported that these glasses are expected to run on a special operating system that was revealed in the iOS 13 version, and the frames of the glasses appeared several times in text and symbolic documents, which means that Apple may be testing the activation and application related to the glasses.

 

Latest leaks

 

 

It is worth noting that the latest leaks about the glasses indicated that they may be launched in late 2024 along with the second generation of the mixed reality device.

These glasses may enter a race and competition with devices or glasses that companies such as Facebook and Amazon are said to be working on.

 

smart glasses price

 

 

The glasses are expected to be priced at $499, and the Apple glasses will rely on pairing them with an iPhone for processing, so they will require much less hardware and also less complexity than Microsoft’s Hololens VR device.

 

glasses features

 

 

According to a report published by Bloomberg Network, the smart glasses will transmit information from the user’s phone to place it in front of him or in his face, and it is expected that the glasses will be specifically synchronized with the wearer’s iPhone to display things such as text messages, emails, maps and games within his field of view.

Apple is also planning to add third-party apps, and they’re thinking of an app store for these glasses, similar to how users get apps for Apple TV and Apple Watch.

 

Patented

 

 

Apple has obtained a patent that has fueled rumors that the glasses will not need prescription lenses because they will be automatically adjustable in people with low vision using what is called “optical sub-assembly”, but this patent may be for a smartphone-powered augmented reality device, or it may be For a second generation of Apple smart glasses.

 

 

 

Another Apple patent indicates that the user can view the parts of the world they want to see, in a similar way to Google’s Street View service. The difference here is that this presentation will take place directly on the lenses of the Apple glasses, and it is possible to move digitally to different locations.

The same report, published by Bloomberg, said that there is another Apple patent that indicates the possibility of helping the user see better in the dark, through depth sensors that provide a better and stronger view of the world around you.

 

Apple’s glasses may also be able to track the user’s finger and hand movements with greater accuracy thanks to some of the smart rings that Apple has patented, and not only will this help eliminate the need for a lot of external sensors, but the system may work with greater accuracy in this way.

 

In addition, the rings can track what the user is holding in their hands, so the Apple glasses can act accordingly.
