san francisco For years there has been speculation about the launch of smart glasses from Apple. So far, however, the most valuable technology group in the world has not entered the market for VR glasses. This could change soon. The Handelsblatt has evaluated dozens of patent applications from Apple, which can give an impression of future devices.
This year alone, Apple was awarded numerous patents that can form the basis for a headset. This involves high-resolution displays, innovative sensor technology and improved sound transmission.
Apple is one of the companies with the most patents pending in the world. According to calculations by the Pitchbook analysis platform, the company holds more than 76,000 patents globally, belonging to more than 22,000 patent families. A number of these patents have found their way into products such as iPhones, iPads or Macs.
Because patents are often filed months or even years before a product hits the market, they can provide a preview of future devices.
