CTOnews.com August 24, Apple's Vision Pro will not be released until this year and will not be available until 2024, but the company has long developed a roadmap, identified research and development direction, and looked for parts supply chains and partners.

So when did Apple come up with the idea of AR / VR? The newly disclosed patents reveal the answer, and Apple has had a prototype of the concept since at least 2007, when it released the original iPhone.

Apple's 2007 patent does not describe all the functions of the Vision Pro head display, but only describes how the wearer can watch movies and sporting events in a virtual scene, focusing on how to give the wearer a sense of immersion.

Some of the patents extracted by CTOnews.com are as follows:

The personal display system may include an electronic device operable to provide media to the personal display device, which is operable to display the received media.

Using one or more optical and digital components, the personal display device can adjust the displayed media to cover the characteristics of the theater, thereby giving the user of the personal display device an impression in the theater.

And in the 2007 patent, Apple envisioned that overdisplay could respond to head, eye or hand movements.

In some embodiments, the personal display device may use one or more sensors to detect the movement of the user, and may adjust the displayed image based on the movement of the user.

For example, the device can detect the head movement of the user and make part of the displayed media reflect the head movement.]

The user may move his head, eyes, or another body part so that the portion of the displayed media follows the movement of the user.

It also describes how to adjust the sound output to match the virtual position and head movement. The patent application was filed in 2007, and it is not clear why it was not approved and published until yesterday.
