Apple dropped a lot of new tech at their Worldwide Developer's Conference (WWDC), but one that really stood out was their new mixed reality device
It's called the Apple Vision Pro, and it is priced at a whopping USD3,499! (RM16,097) :O
According to Apple, the Vision Pro is a product of decades of experience designing high-performance, mobile, and wearable devices.
As a result, Apple was able to come up with this singular piece of three-dimensionally formed laminated glass flowing into an aluminium alloy frame that wraps around your face.
The device also runs on Apple's first spatial operating system, the Vision OS
As it name suggests, the Vision OS enables powerful spatial experiences. What this means is, when you put the goggles on, you can have an intuitive spatial experience that allows you to simply look at an element, tap your fingers together to select, and even use a virtual keyboard or dictation to type.
You will also be able to move apps around, scale them to any size you want, react to the lighting in your room, and even cast shadows.
Apple also stated that Vision Pro will have a feature called EyeSight that ensures you stay connected to the world around you even when you're fully immersed.
Powered simultaneously by a dual-chip setup, Apple promises an efficient and stable performance on the Vision Pro
The first chip is a powerful M2 chip that can simultaneously run visionOS, advanced computer algorithms, and stunning graphisc, while the R1 chip is dedicated to process input from the cameras, sensors, and microphones, streaming images to the displays within 12 milliseconds.
