Working in sync with the iPhone, the AR headset would pull information the user requests from the data on their cellular device.
“The [AR headset] is in charge of the display, and the [iPhone] is in charge of computing, internet access, indoor navigation and outdoor navigation,” Mr. Kuo wrote in the note. “Although there is still much room for improvement for Apple’s first-generation head-worn AR device, we believe that this product will offer an all-new user experience and define the AR user interface.”
Apple hasn’t announced any plans on the device, but in 2017, Bloomberg said Apple was developing augmented-reality glasses and that could ship as early as 2020. In August 2018, the tech giant acquired Akonia Holographics, an augmented-reality glasses startup.
