Apple has been rumored more than once to be developing its own smart headgear that would work in tandem with other devices, like the iPhone or a Mac. The so-called Apple Glasses project has been the subject of various rumors in recent weeks. They’re expected to be augmented reality (AR) glasses similar to regular glasses that would overlay digital content from the iPhone on top of the real-life field of view. But Apple is also exploring virtual reality (VR) and developing a device that could offer a high-end VR experience, well beyond what’s available from most consumer VR headsets that are centered on gaming. A new report says Apple’s VR headset will actually be a mixed-reality (MR) device, capable of combining VR and AR features. But it will also be quite expensive, priced at at least $3,000.
