Concept render based on purported leaked information by Ian Zelbo
In a paywalled report, two individuals who apparently helped develop Apple's headset told The Information that users will be able to scan their irises to quickly log into their accounts and make make payments, similar to Face ID on the iPhone. The functionality is also said to make it easier for multiple people to use the same headset, and sets the device apart from Meta's offerings.
The report reiterated the rumor that Apple's headset will feature 14 cameras, compared to just 10 on Meta's Quest Pro headset, designed to capture body movements to accurately represent real-world movements on digital avatars. Two downward-facing cameras apparently capture a user's legs, offering another feature that the Quest Pro does not have.
