Apple is rumored to launch its new AR headset in 2022 and the device has been gaining some traction over the past few months. At this point, we only know very little about the upcoming headset. Apart from hardware and application, we still have to see how users will interact with the interface. Apple’s AR headset is rumored to house multiple sensitive 3D sensing modules to provide users with innovative hand gestures and object recognition interfaces. Scroll down to read more details on the subject.
Apple’s 2022 AR Headset Will Make Use of Hand Gesture Controls Along With Object Detection for Interfacing
Ming-Chi Kuo mentions in his notes to investors that Apple’s AR headset will offer advanced hand gesture controls along with object detection (MacRumors). The headset will be able to detect not only hand gestures but the movement as well. The overall experience will be immersive where users could interact with virtual objects.
To do this, Apple will potentially house four sets of 3D sensors. The high-quality sensors will require enormous processing power and we have already heard that the AR headset could use processing power equivalent to the company’s M1 chip. Apple’s move will open a new dimension of interfacing and potentially the industry will soon follow as well.
