They are betting on it being the next big thing, but I don't think it is. One side note the images shows clear googles, I'm pretty sure their model has no clear through vision, isn't it a black opaque front with camera? So if battery dies you lose external vision. For a product to take off it has to fill a use-case and a buyer's need. Why is wearing a goggle needed, it is cumbersome and limited. Workplace use woyld be fatiguing. Google Glass had a better idea (you could interact with the world normal and have AR as a bonus. The cost of apple product is also a barrier to many, and so you would get poor people with no access to functions. Just seems like they will share the fate of Metas AR googles.
I think that might actually be an external screen.
So outsiders see your face from inside?
Yeah. I guess two screens was easier to make work than one dual-purpose window-screen.
Iirc it is an external screen yes.
Its an extremely niche product, just look at the price alone, it will prevent if from taking off
That's how it should work. If anyone can sell an objectively stupid tech gadget, though, it's Apple.
