According to various rumors, Apple is working on a headset that will have both virtual and augmented reality capabilities. Now the renowned Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has released further details.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple's upcoming mixed reality headset will feature an advanced eye-tracking system. According to Kuo, this will be equipped with a transmitter and a receiver that can detect and analyze information about eye movements and provide the user with images and information based on algorithms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple's eye-tracking system consists of a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitting end delivers one or more different wavelengths of invisible light, and the receiving end detects the change in the invisible light reflected from the eyeball and judges the movement of the eyeball based on the change.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Will the product support iris recognition?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Kuo explains that most head-mounted devices are operated with handheld controllers that cannot provide a smooth user experience. He believes that an eye-tracking system like the one Apple will use offers several advantages, including an intuitive visual experience that interacts seamlessly with the external environment, more intuitive operation that can be controlled with eye movements, and a lower computational load in the form of reduced resolution. Whether that Product<\/a> It is unclear for now whether the device will also support iris recognition. However, Kuo says this is possible based on the current hardware specifications. If the feature is implemented, the analyst believes that users will be able to use Apple Pay more intuitively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple VR\/AR headset: The focus should be on virtual reality<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Rumors of an eye-tracking system are not new. The Information previously stated that the headset will have advanced eye-tracking capabilities along with more than a dozen cameras to track hand movements. Kuo claimed in a previous post that Apple's so-called mixed reality headset could be unveiled "mid-2022." According to his information, a pure augmented reality headset will not follow until 2025. Previous reports have suggested that the headset will offer both VR and AR functions, similar to other mixed reality headsets. According to insiders, the product will include Sony's Micro-OLED displays to provide both a "transparent AR experience" and a VR experience. However, the focus will be on virtual reality. In fact, Apple is reportedly planning to use the device to create a 3D environment for games, videos and communication. For this reason, limited AR functionality is to be expected.
