This really seems like a solution in search of a problem.
Seems like it'd be kind of useful for people who like to have their cat or dog curled up into their lap while they read. Now both of your hands are totally free to stroke/scratch your pet!
That’s honestly how most of the Apple Vision Pro announcement looked to me
Honestly, I felt like if there was one company that could make it work, it’d be Apple. The hardware looks impressive and they’ve got enough ecosystem benefits to at least get some applications going beyond gaming, video, and porn.
Plus, Apple products have such a critical mass that other developers are bound to jump on board. This headset sounds like a niche product that’ll fail because of it being far too niche. If they could’ve launched an app for an already successful headset instead, I might’ve been more optimistic.
Yes but also I want it for some reason
