While Google seems to have frozen the development of Google Glass indefinitely due to, or that has been rumored, the limited market that may be interested in them, it seems that Apple thinks the opposite, or this is what ends to announce Mark Gurman of Bloomberg, which announces that at Apple they would be working on a kind of augmented reality glasses connected to the iPhone.
Although little or nothing is known about them, apparently the project could be much more advanced than we can imagine initially since, at this point, Apple would be negotiating with possible screen suppliers that would have already delivered a small amount of them to the company so that it can start testing for a possible dated launch, at the earliest , in 2018.
Apple could be working on augmented reality glasses that are very similar in concept and shape to Google Glass.
If you follow the news of what happens in Apple, surely you will know that it is nothing new that the company works on projects like this, not in vain since 2013 they have been making movements in this regard thanks, for example, to the acquisition of different companies whose projects were beginning to emerge in augmented reality issues. On the other hand, based on the statements made by Tim Cook himself, for the CEO of Apple, augmented reality is something really great and has very interesting applications.
At the moment there is still a long time before Apple can show some type of final product although certain aspects are known such as the fact that these would connect to iPhone wirelessly, just as the Apple Watch does today, being able to display information regarding notifications, messages, time ... and even being able to make calls and take pictures and video.
