Apple wants to launch a headset for augmented reality in 2019, or a pair of glasses, the rumors are not too sure, but it seems that Quanta has been chosen to manufacture the product. We are talking about a kind of helmet for augmented reality that would have a transparent "visor", and from here the confusion could arise that it would be a pair of glasses.
Apple's augmented reality headset would allow customers to interact with virtual elements through an operating system called rOS. The interesting part is that the president of Quanta suggests that this virtual reality headset from Apple could have a price of over 1000 dollars, ridiculous for such a product.
The other day we were told that another old partner of Apple called Catcher would be involved in the development of this product, manufacturing the metal case for the augmented reality headset. Quanta is the second Apple partner that would produce some components, at the moment the company manufactures the Apple Watch for those in Cupertino.
Augmented reality is the focus of Apple's attention at the moment, and the president Tim Cook has repeatedly stated this, iOS 11 being a very clear proof. From here to the possible launch of a headset for augmented reality is only one step, but it remains to be seen how much the product could cost after it is launched by Apple.
"Key Apple assembler Quanta Computer on Tuesday said augmented reality will bring huge business opportunities, adding that a significant AR device will be released no later than 2019."
