Apple could soon revolutionise the virtual reality headset market. According to famous analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who specialises in following the Apple brand, the headset that Apple may be preparing to release in 2022 will be able to identify the user by analysing their iris but will also be capable of unprecedented tracking of the eyes during all activity. Will this be enough to finally win over the general public and make VR headsets truly mainstream?

According to the latest information gleaned by renowned analyst Ming-Chi Kuo (TF Securities), Apple appears to have a virtual and augmented reality headset in the works. It could even come to market as early as 2022. To be clear, it would be a separate product from the project of connected glasses, aimed at a more general public, which could also come out next year.
