Rumors that Apple is in their secret labs is working on creating augmented reality glasses, get all new and new confirmations. Not so long ago in the Network leaked information that one of the employees of the company received laser burns to the eyes in the process of testing some equipment. Not the most pleasant fact, but this, unfortunately, is found in the workplace. Now Apple has added fuel to the fire by purchasing the German company SensoMotoric involved in research in the field of tracking gaze and planned to produce innovative eyewear.
At the last WWDC Tim cook did not hide that augmented and virtual reality are of great interest to his company. We even showed a demo version of how the future may look AR applications, which we will be able to see through the camera of Apple mobile devices. Company SensoMotoric was involved in the creation of iron for AR and VR. Glasses produced by the German company is able to track the direction of gaze in real time, which would use them in a huge number of fields. For example, when training professional athletes, constantly suggesting what they should focus at the moment. Shoppers could see the detailed description of goods to be looked at.
Tracking of gaze within the virtual reality is an extremely promising technology. Not so long ago we told you about the revolutionary approach suggested by former employees of Nokia, which displays VR headset will increase the resolution of the image area, which at the moment looks user. We can only speculate about what Apple has planned. I don’t think their new device will be announced in the next two to three years, but one day we certainly will demonstrate. We need only patience.
