For several months, reports have circulated that Apple is developing a mixed reality helmet or spectacles that would combine virtual and augmented reality. RealityOS is the name of the operating system, while Reality One and/or Reality Pro are believed to be the product names.

According to Jeff Pu, analyst at Haitong International Tech Research, we had expected this helmet to come by the end of 2024. MarketWatch received a response from the latter in an email targeted to the media.

AUGMENTED REALITY IS AN APPLE PROJECT :

However, Apple has been increasing the suspense for several years. The most recent event was a personal interview with Apple CEO Tim Cook. He expressed interest in augmented reality. According to him, its influence may be as profound as the Internet’s, enough to feed all the myths about this legendary helmet.

It is definitely time for Apple to capture this territory, as other companies have already established themselves there, sometimes for many years. Meta, which rebranded itself a year ago, is betting big on the metaverse with the introduction of the Meta Quest Pro, while PlayStation is preparing to unveil PS VR 2. After the failure of Google Glass, Google re-entered the fray with a pair of augmented reality glasses dedicated to fast translation. Furthermore, a January rumor said that Google was working on an augmented reality helmet.

A GROWING AUGMENTED REALTY MARKET THAT IS STILL SEARCHING FOR ITSELF :

MarketWatch used this information to interview Paolo Pescatore, a technology analyst at PP Foresight, about the virtual reality and augmented reality markets. “One still gets the feeling of a solution in search of a problem,” he says. At the time, application cases and awareness are insufficient for widespread adoption.

He does, however, believe in a portable gadget that can link to the iPhone to access an augmented reality environment, a sort of metaverse. He believes that Apple augmented reality glasses would be a decent approach and would be a consistent element of Apple’s strategy. ” It seems less obtrusive and provides more options for distinction,” compared to, say, a virtual reality headgear. Paolo Pescatore goes on to say that Apple “will increase consumer demand for smart glasses and the area of augmented reality in general.” As with the smartphone, tablet, and wireless headphones, Apple may be the business that truly launches the market.
