Apple is already testing AR glasses with controller

Apple is developing branded glasses with augmented and virtual reality technologies, which will possibly be called Apple Glasses. They may come out in 2021 or 2022. About it writes MacRumors citing a leak in a fresh build of iOS 14.

MacRumors also received the first photo of the controller for this headset - and it is very similar to a similar device from the HTC Vive Focus VR glasses. This indirectly confirms rumors that Apple is using HTC technology to work on its own VR / AR project. About this back in 2017 wrote Bloomberg.

Is that a customized HTC Vive Focus controller? Weird 🤨 I guess HTC are assisting Apple with AR tech? But why? https://t.co/IvuyQwNGwDpic.twitter.com/IdeU7ezumQ

It is also mentioned that Apple is working on a new AR game - Bowling at Crosswalk. As planned, in it, users should knock down pins on the other side of the road while waiting for a green traffic light.

The developers found out that for now this game can only be launched at an intersection next to Apple's California office, where it is probably being created.
