Apple appears poised to unveil a long-rumored headset that will place its users between the virtual and real world.
File - Apple CEO Tim Cook discusses the Apple Watch at the Apple event at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco, Wednesday, Sept. 9, 2015. If Apple unveils a widely anticipated headset equipped with mixed reality technology on Monday, it will be the company's biggest new product since the introduction of the Apple Watch nearly a decade ago.
Apple's lineage of breakthroughs date back to a bow-tied Jobs peddling the first Mac in 1984 —a tradition that continued with the iPod in 2001, the iPhone in 2007, the iPad in 2010, the Apple Watch in 2014 and its AirPods in 2016. Apple's goggles are expected be sleekly designed and capable of toggling between totally virtual or augmented options, a blend sometimes known as “mixed reality." That flexibility also is sometimes called external reality, or XR for shorthand.
In recent years, Apple CEO Tim Cook has periodically touted augmented reality as technology's next quantum leap, while not setting a specific timeline for when it will gain mass appeal.
