As Apple prepares to introduce a new product category, rumors will begin to circulate around these devices. One report is about the company’s second-generation augmented reality headset, which claims that a head-mounted device can have a display with a density of up to 4,000 pixels per inch (pixels per inch).

In a previous report, we discussed how LG will begin mass production of micro-OLED panels for its second generation augmented reality headset. Now, according to Patently Apple, the same South Korean manufacturer will use an ultra-high definition (FMM) thin metal mask from AP Systems. In 2021, Apple is reportedly inviting FMM samples at AP Systems for use in a mixed reality headset.

The display resolution of the headset was 3,000 pixels per inch, and Apple’s ultimate goal was to get it into mass production. It should be noted that the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy has commissioned the same AP Systems to develop micro-OLED technology for high resolution augmented reality displays. These panels will also emit high levels of brightness and will be used in various programs.

AP Systems is designed to develop panels with a resolution of 4,000 pixels per inch for a national project by 2024. Rumor has it that Apple will release the augmented reality glasses and the second generation augmented reality headset in the same year, but it has not been confirmed whether both versions of the product will be released. actually it will. AP Systems is in the midst of building a new factory in Cheonan, South Korea, with the goal of producing FMMs capable of producing panels with a density of 3,000 pixels per inch.

Unfortunately, this task does not sound easy. To do this, AP Systems will have to buy new laser equipment, getting rid of the old liquid digestion process. LG has also used FMM from AP Systems in the past, so it may not be a coincidence that these two companies are somehow related to the second-generation Apple AR headset. We hope to hear more about development stories for this product, so stay tuned.
