For several months, Tim Cook has been promoting augmented reality everywhere he goes, and he confirmed to a reputable analyst that the first product with this technology could be launched in 2017. Surprisingly, the company Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), could launch a product for cars that could benefit from augmented reality, even though everyone was waiting for it in the iPhone.
Of course, the analyst does not say what kind of Apple software or hardware product could benefit from augmented reality, so we don't really know what we will get. Despite this, the Apple company has patents that describe the possible implementation of this technology in a variety of gadgets, from mobile phones to cars.
Based on what we know from Tim Cook, Apple invests enormous amounts in augmented reality and relies on artificial intelligence to develop products based on this technology. Many engineers are working on systems based on augmented reality within Apple, and whatever will be released, you can be sure that it will be an extremely interesting product.
Apple will launch products with augmented reality in 2017
According to the analyst, Apple could obtain a technological advantage of up to 5 years in front of competitors with products based on augmented reality, which is easy to understand. Moreover, the American company could enter new fields of activity with this technology, that of automobiles being highlighted in today's information.
The truth is that using augmented reality, the Apple company could radically improve our experience of using the iPhone, iPad, Apple TV or even Macs. In cars, we are most likely talking about CarPlay integration, or a possible HUD that projects images on the windshield while the car is moving, which can be taken from an iPhone.
Regardless of what Apple has planned with augmented reality, it is very clear that the recent importance given to these technologies will have a visible result in at least 1 year.
