Apple has long been rumored to be working on a new product line, which will enables its customers to access Augmented and Virtual realities. Now, a new report has revealed information regarding the engine that powers this mixed reality headset.
The news arrives from Mark Gurman who shared the information on his Power On newsletter (Via Engadget). In the report, Bloomberg’s Gurman stated that the Cupertino based giant’s upcoming mixed reality headset (AR/VR enabled) will feature the newly unveiled M2 chipset. For those unaware, this chip is the latest addition into the Apple Silicon series, and is the successor to the M1 chips.
Additionally, the new M2 chip in the headset will also be paired with up to 16GB of RAM. Mark Gurman also talked about how the iPhone maker plans on launching a number of new products like a new HomePod speaker as well in the newsletter. Based on our previous report, the mixed reality headset from the company may feature two processors. As per known analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, one of the chips will offer performance similar to the last gen M1 chip, while the other is a lower end chip designed to handle data from various sensors.
The mixed reality headset from Apple has been rumored to launch for a while now. The company has already obtained trademark for the RealityOS, with developers also finding references to this new OS in App Store upload logs as well. Unfortunately, it is still unknown when exactly the product will be released in the market. So stick around for more updates.
