Great events cast long shadows

A look back into the computing future: Apple's mixed reality headset is soon to take the spotlight. But it will probably remain in the shadows at WWDC 2022.

Great events cast long shadows, so they say. If you turn that thought around, Apple's XR headset will be a particularly big event - because its shadow is very long. Six years long, to be exact.

Soon, the shadow will officially fade, and then Apple's sun will finally rise over the mixed reality future. If the world's biggest tech company is betting on a headset, then it has to work. Right?

We probably won't be able to answer that question at WWDC2022: Developers are expected to have access to new software, interfaces and tools to prepare for the launch of the VR-AR headset. However, the headset itself is not to be unveiled yet. At least: The shadow is getting a bit shorter again.
