In the rapid development of the VR industry, both domestic and international are closely watching this big cake. And now, Apple, which has not developed in the virtual reality (VR) industry, has shown great interest.
According to the latest news, Apple is discussing with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) a new patent issue that involves Apple’s VR plan. As a matter of fact, this patent was submitted as early as 2008 and the application formally started in September 2015. It has not been approved until today. What is special about this new patent is the use of electronic devices with display screens.
Similar to Samsung Gear VR, but it is different from the more popular style of Google Cardboard. This is a head-mounted display VR device that supports integration with mobile phones. That means you can connect it to your phone. Just put your phone into the device frame, and the phone screen is right in front of you. You can view the specific image on your phone by transmitting the image to the device through the optical components between the devices. When the mobile phone is connected to this device, the connector can receive a message request from the mobile phone.
With more and more international giants such as Google, Samsung, HTC and Facebook actively promoting virtual reality (VR) technology, now that Apple has joined the development of the VR industry, their arrival will also inevitably lead to the VR industry. New changes and new developments.
