Apple launches Vision Pro, its first-ever augmented reality headset
Attention, everyone: Apple has a new product category.
On Monday, after more than an hour of updates everything else Apple, the company CEO Tim Cook announced Apple’s first-ever augmented reality headset, the Vision Pro.
Vision Pro, announced as a “one more thing” near the end of the event, is a headset with a see-through display and a fully 3D interface controlled with your eyes, hands, and your voice.
The idea is to see your apps and experienced mixed up with the physical objects in front of you. And you can control how much of this digital reality seeps into the actual reality by turning the crown on the headset’s side, similar to the crown on the Apple Watch. Tim Cook calls this “spatial computing.”
Apple places great emphasis on the fact that you’re not isolated from the outside world while wearing Vision Pro. For example, when you’re fully immersed into a virtual experience, and a person comes near you, they’ll be able to see your eyes, and you will be able to see them as they enter your mixed reality.
