Tianfeng International recently released a report saying that Apple will launch the first generation of AR headsets in 2022 and the second generation in 2024.
Among them, the first generation of AR headsets will use processors with the same level of computing power as Macs, and the computing power of high-end processors is similar to that of Mac's M1. Analyst Guo Mingxi said that Apple has a clear long-term plan for headset products, and the second generation of processors will be further improved compared with the first generation.
At the same time, Apple's AR headsets will be equipped with more 3D detection modules than the iPhone, and the structured light specifications have been significantly upgraded. Structured light can detect changes in the position of the hand (user or other person) in front of the user's eyes and objects, and can also detect dynamic detail changes in the hand. By capturing the dynamic details of the hand, apple AR headsets can provide a more intuitive and vivid human-machine interface.
The biggest difference between Apple's AR headset and competitors can be seen from the processor design: (1) it has Mac (PC) level computing power, (2) it can operate independently without relying on Mac (PC) or iPhone (mobile phone), and (3) it supports a wide range of applications rather than specific applications.
It is understood that Apple's goal is that AR can replace the iPhone in 10 years, and the current active users of the iPhone exceed 1 billion people, which means that Apple will sell at least 1 billion AR devices in 10 years.
