Apple has stepped into the AR/VR world with Vision Pro, which it announced as part of WWDC 2023. A new patent shows that Apple has accelerated its work in this area. Accordingly, the technology giant aroused curiosity with the patent that turns the iPhone into a VR glasses-like screen.
With this patent, iPhone can be used as a VR device
Apple turned to the head-mounted display (HMD) accessory in one of its latest patent applications. The company is considering the hopper that turns iPhones or iPads into glasses. According to the patent drawings, the accessory will be accompanied by a hanging headband, which will help users to put it on their heads.
According to the patent, the iPhone or iPad will establish a wireless connection with the headband. Apple, which will provide communication between devices with the help of Bluetooth, wants to establish an uninterrupted mechanism in this regard. However, his knowledge of the headband and how the iPhone would work was not included in the patent.
This patent, which deals with a VR glasses-like accessory, surprises as it coincides with the Vision Pro. Apple may want to offer a more affordable device in this area, as it offers its high-end glasses for $ 3499. An iPhone/iPad powered accessory can also address affordability concerns.
On the other hand, according to a claim, the company is working on cheap Apple Vision. After these rumors, it was also a matter of curiosity how the new title would be. According to the latest information, Apple will ensure that the cheap title can reach wider audiences. However, the name of the new glasses may be “Vision” or “Vision One”.
Although Apple’s new patent is remarkable, it should be noted that there is no official statement on this subject. Let us remind you that the tech giant has received many exciting patents before, but has not turned it into a real product.
