The Apple Vision Pro was released this weekend and it hasn't taken long for people to engage in whacky antics with the mixed-reality headset.
Since Apple announced its mixed-reality Vision Pro headset last June, tech enthusiasts have been eagerly waiting to hear how the futuristic-looking headset is during real-world use. Bits of information have come out in drips and drabs, but now, finally, some technology publications have been able to use Vision Pro outside the confines of controlled Apple PR environments and put it through its paces. Is the future of computing here?
CES is in full swing, with announcements popping out right and left. A regular participant at CES, Sony has announced a mixed-reality headset explicitly built for spatial content creators.
Meta's investment in virtual and augmented realities (VR and AR) is pushing forward and a new report says the company is planning to release four headsets in the next two years.
Canon has updated its augmented reality headset in the new MREAL X1. It has a wider viewing angle along with the ability to fuse real-life scenes with computer-generated elements in real-time.
Nikon has created a wholly-owned subsidiary called Nikon Creates Corporation that will offer the ability to plan, shoot, and produce volumetric, virtual reality (VR), and 3D content as a licensed partner of Microsoft's Mixed Reality Capture Studios.
The mixed reality headset that rumors have previously stated as in development is due for release by 2022, a new report states. Apple isn't stopping there, however, as augmented reality glasses are set to launch by 2025 and contact lenses by the next decade.
There have been rumors that Apple was going to enter the virtual reality/augmented reality hardware space, but a recent report cites the most detail that has been revealed thus far: more than a dozen cameras, dual 8K displays, and a $3,000 price.
Canon is set to release the MREAL S1 headset in late February for 4 million yen (~$38,400) that can synthesize and display CG images and place them into the wearer's real-life location to create a mixed/augmented reality experience.
