Apple has officially entered the market for augmented and virtual reality, which could prove to be a game changer.
Today, the highly valued company will unveil its mixed-reality headset, dubbed Reality One or Reality Pro, at WWDC.
This device is expected to have an iOS-like interface, immersive video display, and be controlled by users via hand gestures, eye movements, and Siri.
It will also include cameras, sensors, and an external battery pack, with a price tag of around $3,000.
If Apple’s headset has the same impact on the AR/VR industry as the iPhone did on the mobile industry, it will be a major breakthrough.
This advancement has the potential to not only shape the future of computing, but also to revolutionize work, gaming, and entertainment experiences.
Although success in this emerging field is not guaranteed, Apple as a company has the ability to make this product category thrive.
