Apple could be planning to develop an Augmented Reality (AR)-based headset that would work alongside an iPhone to enable users to experience an environment where computer images are overlaid on the real world.
The development came into notice when the iPhone-maker published an update titled, “Systems, methods and graphical user interfaces for interacting with Augmented and Virtual Reality environments”, as part of an existing patent filed in August 2018, CNET reported on Thursday.
“The iPhone-maker is exploring building an AR headset, something that sources told CNET the company is hoping to release in roughly the next year,” the report said.
