According to the latest rumors, glasses AR Apple Glass (o Apple View) would have entered the design development phase. Experts think this indicates a possible launch by the end of 2024. It would be a different product than the viewer for the mixed reality that Apple would like to launch in early 2023.
Apple Glass, Apple’s AR glasses begin design development
The analyst Jeff Pu at Haitong Intl Tech Research had revealed a few months ago that Apple had chosen Luxshare as a partner for the production of AR viewers and glasses for the two-year period 2022-2024. If the Cupertino mixed reality headset is expected to arrive in 2023 (an expensive product, designed especially for developers and professionals), AR glasses would debut in the second half of 2024.
This model will instead focus its attention on augmented reality. They could introduce real-time browsing on glasses, reading notifications and messages. All powered da gesture and you. Cupertino experts think that this technology pbones replace the iPhone within ten years. And they would be starting to develop it.
According to Pu reports, Apple’s AR glasses enter the design development phase. This should mean that Apple executives will be able to see by the end of this year a prototype of the glasses. However, the launch will take time: at least until the end of 2024.
In addition to disclosing these Cupertino plans, Jeff Pu revealed that Apple would be working on one periscope optics for the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max. The company Lante should develop the lenses to be inserted in the optics, the same company that is developing some of the technologies for the Apple Glass AR.
It therefore seems that Apple has a clear understanding of its investments in the near future. While it wants to enter the world of AR and VR, it does not want to decrease investments to bring something new to every generation of iPhone. That to today still represents the largest source of income for Cupertino.
