Apple will launch AR headsets in 2022, with computing power comparable to Mac M1 chips

According to Guo Mingchi’s prediction, Apple will launch an AR headset in Q4 of 2022, which will be equipped with two processors. The computing power of the high-end processors is similar to that of the Mac’s M1, while the lower-end processors are responsible for sensor operations.

Because the high-end processor has the same level of computing power as the M1, the power management (PMU) design of the high-end processor will also be similar to that of the M1.

Therefore, it is speculated that high-end processors, like M1, will use ABF carrier boards, while lower-end processors will use BT carrier boards.

At the same time, it said that Apple’s AR headset will be equipped with two 4K Micro OLED displays provided by Sony.

Therefore, the device will likely support VR, so the computing power requirements of the device are significantly higher than that of the iPhone, so it needs a Mac-level processor.

At the same time, Apple’s AR headset has significantly higher sensor computing capabilities than the iPhone.

Therefore, a separate processor is required for processing.

For example, this AR headset requires continuous simultaneous operation of at least 6-8 optical modules in order to provide users with video see-through AR services, while the iPhone’s simultaneous operation of optical modules is only 3 It does not require continuous calculation.
