In recent years, the concept of metaversity has gradually become popular.
With the entry of several tech giants, meta-universe may become one of the key projects for the development of the tech industry in the coming years.
As an intelligent hardware that realizes the concept of meta-universe, AR /VR devices naturally occupy a place in the development list of major manufacturers.
According to the news from the outside world before, Apple is also actively preparing its first AR device.
Recently, the source Ross Young published a research report at the DSCC, including the latest news of Apple's first AR device.
According to the research report, Apple expects to release its first AR/VR device in the second half of 2022.
Ross Young predicts that Apple's first AR device will have an innovative display configuration with three display modules, including two micro OLED displays and an AMOLED panel.
For now, it appears that the micro OLED display will become the main display of the device, but it is unclear what the AMOLED display will have.
Ross Young also gave his own speculation, he thinks Apple may use AMOLED panels to achieve low-resolution peripheral vision.
Previously, Finnish manufacturer Varjo's products had adopted this screen configuration.
The company's AR/VR devices use two screens for each eye position of the user, including a small screen in the center of the vision, and larger-sized displays around it.
When the user looks straight ahead, it produces an extremely sharp image and provides a more standard VR resolution for the user's peripheral vision.
At present, Apple's first AR device will adopt a similar strategy.
In addition, Sony is expected to become the supplier of a Micro OLED display in Apple's first AR device, using a 1.4-inch 4K display.
Previously, Sony showcased a 4K display with 4000 pixels per inch, designed for use with VR headsets.
Sources pointed out in the research report that it is possible for Sony to develop such a display specifically for Apple.
It can be seen that Apple's first AR device is not low in terms of display configuration alone.
As a result, Ross Young speculates that Apple's first AR device will be expensive.
According to current forecasts, the price of this AR device is about 3,000 US dollars, about 19,000 yuan.
Apple's first AR device will be a high-end device for professionals and developers to expand Apple's ecosystem in AR/VR.
According to previous news from the outside world, Apple's first AR device will also be equipped with multiple cameras that support hand tracking, and a lidar sensor.
In addition, Apple will also have a powerful CPU and GPU in the device, which can run independently without the help of the iPhone, which will also be one of its biggest selling points.
At present, it seems that Apple's first AR device will be released at the WWDC Developer Conference in 2022 as early as 2022, and will be officially launched later this year.
Let's wait and see.
