Ask HN: Relevance of Apple mixed reality headset in next 10 years?
There are so many speculations about Apple’s introduction of its mixed reality headset in the upcoming WWDC23. Will it be a successful tech or will it be a successful in a 4/5 years of timeline. What kind of SDK will be used to create apps on the device? How it can differ from iOS apps? I’m super excited and super curious about the upcoming tech. My guess is that it will be successful over a multi-year timeline like the Apple Watch. Done well, a mixed reality headset is just too useful a tool. Imagine adding AI to it and you have something approximating a holodeck in terms of its usefulness. That said, I can imagine myself waiting until V2. I tend to buy Apple products early, but only when I can see how they are going to make my life better. I’ll need to see this to be convinced. > conspiracy theories You mean speculation, not conspiracy theories Thanks. I updated the post! How will it be much different within an already crowded market that is mostly focused on entertainment? The real device people want is smart glasses
