According to a report, Apple's new patent application suggests that its mixed reality (MR) headset could allow users to see invisible things. It emphasises that users may be able to detect gas leaks and Wi-Fi signals. According to reports, the MR headset will use additional signals to enable this feature. It could also help musicians tune their instruments by displaying sound waves. It may also track heat patterns, which could aid in the detection of potential fires. The headset could reportedly allow wearers to see inside cupboards by creating an augmented reality (AR) overlay.
According to Patently Apple, a new patent application from the Cupertino tech behemoth reveals that the company's MR headset could allow users to see things that are invisible to the naked eye. The rumoured headset could allegedly assist wearers in detecting gas leaks and Wi-Fi signals for adjusting router placement.
According to the report, Apple's MR headset will also track heat patterns to detect potential fires around the wearers to ensure their safety. It is said to use an infrared sensor to allow wearers to see heat, potentially assisting them in detecting fires through walls. To display the invisible things, the headset reportedly creates an overlay over the AR view of the user's current location.
According to the report, it will also visualise sound waves to assist musicians in tuning their instruments. For the correct note, it is said to create an overlay over the sine wave. The rumoured Apple headset is said to create an AR overlay that allows wearers to see behind closed cupboard doors. According to reports, it will compare the stored video from the time its user opens a cupboard to their current view and position.
According to recent reports, Apple may release its MR headset in 2023. According to reports, the company is working on three new headsets codenamed N301, N602, and N421. The company's first MR headset will reportedly be called Apple Reality Pro, and it will compete with Facebook's upcoming AR-VR headset.
