Apple has joined the race to create the perfect blend of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) with the launch of its mixed-reality headset, the Apple Vision Pro. This new hardware category marks a significant milestone for the tech giant, as it is the first since the debut of the Apple Watch in 2015. The announcement of the Apple Vision Pro at the WWDC 2023 keynote was a much-anticipated event and has generated a lot of buzz in the tech industry.
The Apple Vision Pro is a groundbreaking head-mounted computer that introduces the concept of "spatial computing." Reminiscent of competitors like the Microsoft HoloLens, this device can overlay apps onto the real world and is controlled through eye movements and hand gestures. Featuring an aluminum frame, high-quality displays for each eye, and outward-facing cameras, the Apple Vision Pro is designed to accommodate different face and head shapes as well as vision differences.
One of its most impressive features is EyeSight, which allows your eyes to be overlaid on the device's external display. This means that anything you're doing in the headset is visible to those around you. Whether you're watching movies, gaming, or simply browsing the web, the Apple Vision Pro effectively turns the real world into your screen. The headset is powered by VisionOS and can even capture photos and videos.
The Apple Vision Pro will soon be hitting store shelves and is priced at $3499. For those interested in purchasing this product, there is ample time to save up until it becomes available next year.
