February 2024 is here, and this month marked the end of a long, long wait for Apple’s Vision Pro. Apple has already sold 200,000 devices in the first week, which is impressive. This funding will support Magic Leap’s “Chapter 3” roadmap of delivering enterprise-grade XR solutions.

As I said a few months ago , we are in the middle of a paradigm change: the cycle that started with the Quest is arriving at an end, and a new cycle driven by new technologies (mixed reality headsets) and new players (Apple, Google) is starting. They are Apple AR glasses!” I have this impression for a few reasons.

As WWDC approaches, Apple continues to drop hints, leading spectators to assume an immersive device is coming that continues the transformative firm’s track record of distributing game-changing consumer hardware. An XR device from Apple could be massive. This month is proving a pivotal moment in the XR consumer landscape.

But, as Road To VR has stated, maybe HTC should have clarified that in all its marketing material.

We all know that AR glasses (or hybrid AR/VR glasses) are the technology that will eventually replace smartphones, and Facebook of course wants to conquer that new platform. And to be the leader in some years, it has to start going public now, also to begin competing with Apple, that will probably announce its AR glasses next year.

Regarding the glasses, I have not big hopes for true AR glasses, but I think that thanks to Facebook and Apple, finally we’ll have some important smartglasses entering the market , making the mainstream think about wearing something on their face to enjoy notifications from the phone. Phone AR will be always more popular.

Apple’s Vision Pro triggered new discourse on the future of virutal, augmented, and mixed reality (VR/AR/MR). Revealed at the Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC), the Apple Vision Pro has sparked both praise and criticism from the global XR community. Apple is adept at proposing something you didn’t think you needed.

BUT today is the day of the WWDC, and who knows if Apple will tease something about AR glasses. And also of course I would like to understand what is the expected price: the 3DOF version can be preordered at 599 USD, so I guess the 6DOF one will be at least 799. (Thanks KroyVR for the tip!).

Part of all of this is merit of Jeri (Image by HTC). At Tilt Five, we designed a really clever system that only works on tabletop experiences but it has features that are just leaps and bounds above what the big Magic Leap or HoloLens type AR systems are. That’s where I got started with augmented reality.

Of course, all the community is interested in them, because they could mean a revolution in augmented reality, that is currently based on devices that have a tiny FOV window, or that have a wide FOV but unsatisfying quality of the visuals. Will a little startup be able to beat the big behemoths like Apple and Facebook?
