Apple will broadcast the WWDC Keynote live from its website and YouTube channel. If you can’t watch the keynote live, you can always tune in to the pre-recorded version that Apple will post to YouTube after it airs.
With that said, let’s dive into some of the biggest announcements we’re expecting from Apple during WWDC.
Without a doubt, Apple’s mixed reality headset is one of the most exciting new offerings in recent memory. Apple has yet to confirm its existence, but rumors suggest it will be able to offer both augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) experiences.
Apparently called Reality Pro, the developer-focused headset is expected to look like “ski goggles” with a physical dial that lets you adjust to virtual reality, reports The Verge.
The headset is likely to be a self-contained unit with a battery connected by a special cord. It is said to have an M2 chip with 16 GB of RAM when it comes to technical specifications. According to supply chain analyst Ross Young, the gadget can include two 1.41-inch Micro OLED panels with 4,000 (ppi) each.
Young adds that the displays are capable of delivering over 5,000 nits of brightness and users should be able to see 4K resolution in each eye, according to The Verge.
Apple is reportedly working hard on creating VR versions of some of its native apps, including Safari, FaceTime, Apple TV, Apple Books, Freeform, and more. Additionally, it may have a feature that allows the headset to act as an external display for your Mac. The Apple headset is expected to cost around $3,000, so it won’t come cheap. We probably won’t see cheaper variants of the device at this year’s presentation, despite the fact that Apple is also working on it.
There have already been signs that Apple is planning to unveil its ‘Reality Pro’ headset at WWDC, with the company sending out an invite to a VR-focused publisher at the UploadVR outlet. Apple has also released an augmented reality teaser on its site, which shows a thin, movie-like Apple logo with the date of WWDC wherever you point your iPhone or iPad’s camera.
According to The Verge, WWDC is a developer event, which means we’re bound to see updates on iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and more.
High-end products such as Apple’s all-new operating system, new MacBook Air and Mixed Reality (MR) headset will be unveiled during the five-day developer event.
Apple CEO Tim Cook’s keynote is the highlight of the developer event.
The event will kick off on June 5th (Monday) at 10:30 PM (IST) for Indian audiences. June 9 marks the conclusion of the developer event. Favorite
