Although Apple hasn’t even released the first version of its Vision Pro mixed reality headset, the company is already developing the next generation of the device. The portal reports this MacRumors.
The new device, codenamed Project Alaska and model identifier N109, will have an almost identical appearance to the first version. One of the few changes to the Vision Pro 2’s design is the removal of the circular areas that house the speakers. Instead, the arms of the headset will be straight.
Another difference between Vision Pro 2 and Vision Pro will be the simplified head mounting system. The straps of the second generation headset will resemble the flat straps found on bags or backpacks. This may indicate that Apple plans to reduce the price of the device and make it more affordable.
The second-generation headset will feature two micro OLED displays, a TrueDepth camera, two RGB cameras, four computer vision cameras and two infrared emitters. Additionally, the device will support semi-automatic adjustment of interpupillary distance.
According to MacRumors, Apple is in no rush to develop Vision Pro 2. The finished mixed reality headset is expected to launch in 2025 or early 2026. The launch of the first Vision Pro will take place in early 2024.
