WSJ: Apple to unveil augmented reality hardware 'in the coming weeks'
Walking Dead ARKit demo
Some analysts remain skeptical about Apple's first foray into augmented reality glasses, and say that Apple is at 2-3 years away from fitting the sensors and equipment required by ARKit in such a product. As for the phone-based AR, Matt Miesnieks from Super Ventures quips that "people don’t really understand the constraints of smartphone AR, and they have wildly inflated expectations at the moment of what’s realistic." It remains to be seen, but with Apple jumping on the AR bandwagon, we are soon to see a flood of such apps from big names like IKEA or popular game devs, and in a year from now we might all be placing virtual sofas around the house to see where they look best, at least on our iPhone screens.
