Apple building own metaverse-like virtual world, AR/VR headset may come in 2023: Report

For long, Apple has been improving the iPhone’s hardware with AR (Augmented Reality)/Virtual Reality (VR) in focus. Cupertino-based technology company introduced LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) Scanner with iPhone 12 series and new iterations too, come with similar features offering immersive video gaming and even e-commerce shopping experience too.

But, the real game changer is touted to be Apple’s dedicated Mixed Reality (MR) headgear, which has been under works for more than a year. It was rumoured to make its debut along with iPhone 14 series, but supply constraints reportedly forced Apple to postpone until 2023.

There was no credible information on how Apple planned to bring just the hardware and not have any proprietary virtual platform.
