Indirect information about the active work of the Apple team on the development of revolutionary augmented reality glasses has appeared from time to time. Every year, enthusiasts expect a device that can change the world to be announced at a traditional Apple presentation. However, this never happens.
Apple itself has shown considerable interest in augmented and virtual reality technologies, as evidenced by numerous patents. Recently there was information about the real testing of augmented reality glasses.
The developer of iOS applications has identified the GM version of the iOS 13 README file with a description of the StarBoard system shell that works with augmented reality. The first mention of the Garta device was found in the file.
The detected file indicates the testing of the Garta device and contains recommendations for developers who want to test AR applications in a stereo mode. This indirectly decrypts the technical characteristics of Garta, in particular, indicating that it is a stereoscopic AR-headset that makes corrections to the work and takes into account the distance between the user’s pupils. This confirms Apple’s intentions to bring augmented reality devices to a qualitatively better high-tech level.
Enthusiasts also revealed the information about their work on creating a controller for applications with an AR headset.
