Apple and Meta are intensively developing next-generation mixed reality headsets

News on October 9, according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman in today’s “Power On” press briefing revealed that although Apple and meta’s mixed reality headsets have not yet been officially released, the two companies have already begun research and development of next-generation products.

It is understood that a main focus of Apple’s next-generation products is to make the headset more comfortable to wear through a smaller and lighter design. The company is considering a number of options, including launching a low-end version and a more powerful one.

#The report also pointed out that Apple is considering pre-installing prescription lenses for the next generation of headsets to customize them according to the user’s vision. This move may simplify the user experience, but it also creates some new problems. Built-in prescription lenses could turn Apple into a health provider, which may not be the direction the company wants. Additionally, this level of personalization may make it more difficult for consumers to share or resell their headsets, and users' vision may change over time.

Apple submitted a related patent application in August this year, showing that they are interested in developing virtual reality or augmented reality headsets that adjust according to the user's vision. This move shows Apple’s continuous pursuit of innovation and personalization in the field of mixed reality.
