Apple advances their VR Headset based 3D Document Editing and Viewing System
On March 22, 2018 Patently Apple posted a report titled "Apple's In-Depth Work on a Next-Gen Mixed Reality Headset is Simply Mind Boggling in Scope." On March 23 Patently Apple posted a follow-up patent titled "Apple's Mixed Reality Headset Part 2: A 3D Document Editing and Viewing System." Apple was granted a patent for this invention in late October 2020. Today the US Patent & Trademark Office published continuation patent 20210042010 from Apple that advances and legally protects this invention.
In-part and in reality, Apple's mixed reality headset could double as a portable desktop and/or desktop replacement. For professionals on the road, using a mixed reality headset as their 30" display to work on large documents or architectural drawings or an ad campaign is vastly superior to a notebook to be sure.
