BREAKING: Apple releases Apple Vision Pro. An entire AR computer inside your headset. The real world is now blending with the digital world. #WWDC23

This is the "first Apple product you look through, not at." You can control the 3D interface with your eyes, hands, and voice. The home view lives right in front of you.

How to control it: The input model relies on NO controllers- only your eyes, hands, and voice. Flick, scroll, click with your hands, and talk to Siri to drive actions.

Some more notable features: -Integrates with data across all other Apple devices -EyeSight lets people see through your headset when they are near you and shows people when you are using an app

Will continue to add updates to this thread. Follow me @rowancheung, and bookmark the tweet below to follow along.

More notable features: -Built-in a 3D camera -Record in 3D, replay in 3D -Spatial audio analyzes space around you to give you optimal sound -Powered by Apple M2 and R1 (new chip) -Uses VisionOS (new operating system) It's "The most advanced personal electronics device ever."

Pricing is in. $3499 and available next year.

Here's the official Apple VisionPro Commercial:

Overall thoughts: This is the start of a new era, and it's only the first version. Imagine where we'll be in the next decade. This bulky headset will look like regular glasses- then contact lenses- then who knows? I can't even begin to imagine the endless possibilities of AR x AI yet. $3500 is pricey, but there's no doubt in my mind that I'll be buying one

I’m going to go out on a limb to predict that this will not be a success!

This is the future... Right now, right here.
