Apple unveils Apple Vision Pro

 

Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC 23) took place on Monday, and the announcement of Apple's mixed VR headset, the Apple Vision Pro, was the biggest highlight.  The Apple Vision Pro will cost $3,499 and be available in 2024. This headset allows the wearer to see the physical world, unlike others that envelop the wearer's face and limit visibility. It runs on an Apple M2 chip and the new R1 chip, specific for mixed reality. Apple touted its new technology, called Eyesight, which will show you a person if they walk in front of you, even if you're in an immersive virtual reality mode. There were also updates for the Apple Watch, Apple TV, AirPods, iPhones, macOS, iOS17, and iPadOS17. A journaling app, Stand-by mode, NameDrop, and more were some features added in iOS17. Ahead of WWDC 23, Apple's shares were up 1% and hit a record high, above $182.
