Apple reportedly showed off its mixed-reality headset to board of directors
Summary
Apples board of directors previewed its mixed-reality headset last week, according to Bloomberg, suggesting that its next major new product category could launch soon. For Apple, the launch of a product category could open up new markets and potentially re-create the world-changing 2007 introduction of the iPhone. Industry watchers believe the ultimate device for augmented reality would use transparent lenses and be closer in weight to a pair of eyeglasses, but that the underlying technology isnt quite there yet. Meanwhile, Google previewed a smart glasses prototype last week that translates foreign languages in real time. The company is holding its annual developers conference called WWDC virtually next month, with a keynote presentation that often includes new product announcements.
