Apple Inc, which is poised to launch its Vision Pro mixed-reality headset on Feb 2, is already envisioning future workplace applications for the device, including using it for surgery, aircraft repair and teaching students.

In a video sent to employees this week, Apple executives Mike Rockwell and Alan Dye discussed the product’s development, as well as potential growth areas for the still-nascent technology. Bloomberg News obtained a transcript of the conversation, which came just before Apple began accepting preorders for the Vision Pro on Friday.
