Apple just got a patent registered in 2008 and would have regarding a pair of virtual reality, much like the Samsung Gear VR. The discovery of the patent surprising, especially if we consider that recently the CEO, Tim Cook, made a statement in which he kept well stops at Google Glass. Cook claimed in their statements, they always knew that intelligent Google glasses would be a failure for being an intrusive object for the user. In addition, he also specified that the signing of Mountain View should have been better opted for a smart watch.
The new patent, and owned by Apple, discloses a portable electronic device that would be located in the user’s head and could have an iPhone inserted therein through a Lightning port. As we see from the pictures, this device would specifically shaped glasses and further integrate physical buttons, we assume that to activate various functions and an audio system. Most likely, Siri jugase a very important to establish a more convenient control with the device itself paper. In the image of the patent also see a remote control, the user may have in your hand and allow you to manipulate the contents of the screen.
The invention of Apple would be very similar to virtual reality goggles Samsung already available for booking in Spain, the Gear VR. Were shown for the first time at the IFA in Berlin last year and developped with the help of Oculus Rift, owned by Facebook. As seen in Apple’s patent, the Gear VR of South Koreans is to be used with one of the terminals of the company, in this case with the Galaxy Note 4. In the glasses there is a space to insert the phablet which features 5.7-inch screen qHD resolution. With them you can view movies, video games or educational materials with the main objective to interact with movements in 360 degrees. On the outside of the Gear VR also see different buttons to activate its functions. Navigating through menus is made easier thanks to the Game Pad from Samsung.
The interest of the Asian firm in virtual reality is demonstrated not only with their smart glasses, also with the Beyond project, a 3D camera that can capture video at three hundred sixty degrees through its 16 Full HD sensors. This camera is designed for use with a Gear VR, in order that we may enjoy a more realistic experience through interactive world. Apple, by contrast, seems to have so quickly in working in this field, but the patent shows that intentions are. In addition, remember that late last year published a job through which sought an expert to create an interface for virtual reality. Just a matter of time before we know more details about virtual reality goggles future of the company.
