Is anyone else excited to see Apple’s annoucements at WWDC this year?
I’m not sure why there is so much hype on an AR/VR experience. They’ve always seemed like a bit of a gimmic to me, as they don’t seem good for productivity, and gaming in VR sounds like it would give me a massive headache/seasickeness.
VR is quite good for gaming, and I think that’s the way this technology will move forward in the future. However, we haven’t had any real take on AR, which is what Apple is focusing on with their headset. With Apple cultural influence on developers and designers, many of them will try to find a valid use case for AR and the ecosystem could finally take off.
Personally, I think using AR to have as large virtual display as you can is a very useful feature.
We’ll see I guess, I hope it doesn’t turn out like the TouchBar on older MBP models or the Apple Watch (mostly just for notifications and fitness)
