Apple is starting to explore things we'd never be told, and while there's been a lot of speculation about the car in recent months, the first speculations have now surfaced that Microsoft The HoloLens itself also caught my attention. Apple. In recent days, the company has hired engineer Nick Thompson, who worked in the HoloLens team and was in charge of developing audio hardware for augmented reality. This interest was noticed by Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster, who also drew attention to the fact that Apple is in discussions with some virtual and augmented reality manufacturers. From this one could conclude that Apple may soon introduce its own augmented reality, which may be as interesting as HoloLens.
On the other hand, Nick Thompson already in Appli worked He worked there for 7 years, he was in charge of the development of the audio interface for Mac computers and v Apple TV and later transferred to Microsoftu, where he worked on one of the most secret projects that was announced as a consumer product that would go on sale. Apple was eventually bought by Metaio, a startup specializing in virtual/augmented reality software development, and it was also reported that Apple planned to bring virtual reality to iOS 9, to the application Maps, where the feature would show various points of interest after you point your camera at a building. Apple could also use technologies from PrimeSense, the company behind the technology used by the Xbox Kinect (aka Project Natal) and Apple he bought this company two years ago

So they took away his title that he is a former engineer? :-O
I would be quite interested in how such glasses work in terms of lid function. eye. After all, if it is necessary to focus permanently at such a short distance (in which the "glass" of the HoloLens is located), it will be a truly degenerative experience for the eye...
I hope so Apple he's not going to copy. I'm a little bothered that he's dragging the Tesla lady, Microsoftand other companies. As if running out of breath.
Chr1s: In this case engineer is not as a university degree but as a job function (engineer)
