Apple plans 2022 launch for AR headset

Apple's AR headset, codenamed N301, reportedly has AR and VR capabilities and is planned to be released in 2022.

The headset will have a focus on gaming, watching video, and virtual meetings.

A smaller pair of glasses that are designed to be worn for a longer period of time will be released in 2023.

These glasses currently look like high-priced sunglasses with thick frames. Both devices will use a more advanced version of the Face ID camera.

Google has recently ended its Daydream experiment due to a lack of developer adoption and decreasing usage from customers.
