Apple has a rich history of success in developing technologies that consumers love. It is possible that the new AR headset will become a popular device among users, but for this it needs a large library of applications to begin with.

It’s clear that the company is currently focusing on developing a range of apps that will work seamlessly with the augmented reality headset. For this, Apple is looking for ways to adapt previously tested software solutions on the iPad that successfully adapt augmented reality applications to its capabilities.

Features of programs for AR headset

The interface of the augmented reality headset will be specially adapted for use with the device, and utility icons will be distributed in three-dimensional space. The system will remember where the user launched this or that application, so if he returns to this place, the application will automatically continue to work.

• Apple’s branded apps such as Safari, FaceTime and the Apple TV app will be fully adapted to the headset.
• The company also focuses on developing apps for sports, meditation and virtual meetings.
• Business applications such as text editors, spreadsheet applications, video editing and music recording applications will also be adapted to the augmented reality headset.

Contrary to the original intention, Apple is also focusing on the gaming aspect of the device. The company is working with developers to adapt their apps to the new platform before the headset hits the market at the end of the year.

What is known about Apple headphones

Users will be able to switch between virtual and augmented reality by pressing a button on the side of the headset, which resembles the Apple Watch wheel. Parallel operation will be supported in several programs, and gesture recognition and gaze direction will become the main tools for entering information and working with the interface.

In addition to these features, user authentication will be based on the iris of the eye, and Apple will ensure compatibility of its augmented reality headset apps with Mac, iPhone and iPad. The first screen of the headset will resemble the one used on the iPad and will provide quick access to the most important functions.

Apple’s investment in developing a wide variety of applications for its augmented reality headset demonstrates the company’s commitment to building a strong presence in this market. Targeting both entertainment and business applications, the device should be a valuable tool for consumers and professionals alike. At the same time, the price of the device creates an almost inaccessible barrier to entry, inaccessible to all users.
