The first thing about this device mentioned Min Chi Co., a famous analyst, who often tells exactly Apple's gadgets yet. Min reported that "the most AR-device, but not glasses" Apple will declare already in 2021 - earlier than was supposed. Secrets and secrets attract attention - although not to understand what this device is impossible. It had to go out in 2019-2020, his trial parties were already made somewhere in China, but the first party that meets the requirements of Apple to quality turned out to be the latter. The design was unwillingly, there can be no other explanation, and it was sent to refinement, the exit of the AR headset from Apple was transferred.
AR, VR and devices using these technologies, several hundred people are engaged in Apple. Judging by the fact that November 15, 2019, in order to collect them all in the same room in Apple Park, it took the main hall of the game name of Steve Jobs to a thousand with an excess person, this is a very large division. Among this thousand is a mysterious source of information about the very secret company in the world, due to which in Bloomberg, at once, "guess" its actions.
In June 2020, Bloomberg reported on the next domestic meeting in the Apple AR / VR division. This time it was carried out in remote mode. The meeting discussed changes in Apple AR / VR strategy, of which only one thing applies to our topic: AR / VR headset (one of two AR / VR devices of the Apple developed) goes to the next phase of development, it began to turn it into a real product. Already at least, a second time.
What will be the supplemented reality apple
All AR / VR devices have a lot in common with Apple Watch, especially with the first time model. Inside the SIP devices - a system-in-housing, that is, chipset chips are mounted not on the board, but in a solid housing filled with a soft porous filler, which increases its shock resistance. About chip, managing AR / VR devices, it is known only that it is designed specifically for them.
AR / VR-VR operating system - ROS (R denotes Reality, reality) - Another derivative of iOS
For ROS, the developer's toolkit has been developed, and after entering the AR / VR devices, their own App Store opens for them. Like Apple Watch the most first model, AR / VR devices will be deeply dependent on the IOS device associated with them - iPhone, and possibly the iPad. Because of this dependence, they have plenty of advantages over similar products of competitors: they are easier, easier and more reliable. There are dependencies with which it is better not to fight.
What is the difference between a virtual and augmented reality
Augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) are often mentioned together, they relate to the same field of technology, while they are significantly different. Augmented reality does not isolate the user from the surrounding reality, complementing it and projection on the inner surface of the glasses additional information about it. They are like ILS, indicator on the windshield in a supersonic intercepting and advanced cars.

Virtual reality plunges the user to an artificial unreal world, and it is more or less turning off from the outside world. Therefore, AR / VR headset and Apple Glasses are significantly different devices. With the first in the IT industry, everything is very good - there are many wonderful devices immersing a person in realistic digital hallucinations (for example, Oculus Rift and Oculus Quest, Oculus is a subsidiary of Facebook).
In 2021, according to Min Chi Co., Apple will present such a device.
In the summer of 2019, Ar / VR-device was already preparing for release, but something went wrong - and at the meeting were looking for answers questions "Who is to blame" and "what to do". As if publicly executed at this meeting Mike Rockwell, according to the latest data, still technical manager of the AR / VR project project. As a result, Apple decided to first run the most disturbing technologies on the iPad Pro and iPhone 12 Pro. In 2020. That's why all these TOFs and Lidar are needed. In the iPhone of the next year, Lidar will appear in models without a Pro particle in the title. Probably everything turned out.
