Apple is expected to unveil a sleek, pricey headset today (Updated with new info)

Apple appears poised to unveil a long-rumored headset that will place its users between the virtual and real world, while also testing the technology trendsetter’s ability to popularize new-fangled devices after others failed to capture the public’s imagination.
After years of speculation, the stage is set for the widely anticipated announcement to be made Monday at Apple’s annual developers conference on a park-like campus in Cupertino, California, that the company’s late co-founder Steve Jobs helped design. Apple is also likely to use the event to show off its latest Mac computer, preview the next operating system for the iPhone and discuss its strategy for artificial intelligence.
But the star of the show is expected to be a pair of goggles — perhaps called “Reality Pro,” according to media leaks — that could become another milestone in Apple’s lore of releasing game-changing technology, even though the company hasn’t always been the first to try its hand at making a particular device.

But with a hefty price tag that could be in the $3,000 range, Apple’s new headset may also be greeted with a lukewarm reception from all but affluent technophiles.
If the new device turns out to be a niche product, it would leave Apple in the same bind as other major tech companies and startups that have tried selling headsets or glasses equipped with technology that either thrusts people into artificial worlds or projects digital images with scenery and things that are actually in front of them — a format known as “augmented reality.”

This will go over like the Star Wars hotel at Disney.

Idiots will buy it, though, because it has the Apple logo stamped on it. This is the same company that produced and sold an $800 set of wheels for a desktop tower stand. They know their marks.

I like Apple but thats a little too rich for my blood, I'd rather drop that kind of cash on fishing equipment.

VHS beat out Beta and Blu-Ray beat out HD-DVD because pornography adopted them over competing formats. My guess is that this will either be made or broken based on pornography.

Like all new tech, it needs a killer app. Imagine wearing this instead of safety goggles to do DIY projects. Pair it with AI and you have relevant measurements and instructions in the heads up display, it could tell you where to cut, where to nail, etc. I'm not saying Apple's device will do this, but that's the kind of thing that would make Mixed Reality worthwhile.

Is it gonna tell you how to stop the bleeding when you cut off your hand with a skill saw?

That's funny, Delta gives out little earbuds for free.

"Siri! How do I stop bleeding from a severed arm?!"
Siri: "Alarm set for fifteen minutes. Shuffling music by Adele."

I have no desire to frick with VR at all unless it gets to some crazy advanced level, and even then that might spell doom for humanity at large.

Great they want everyone to look like a minion.

$3000 and hooked to a cable. Was looking forward to seeing the presentation. After seeing it, my prediction……major flop.
