Apple just unveiled its hotly-anticipated mixed-reality headset called "Vision Pro."
After years of rumors circulating about the product, the headset and its many features were finally revealed at Apple's annual Worldwide Developers Conference on Monday.
Here's a look at some pictures showing off the headset's features.
Apple's Vision Pro headset is controlled by the movements of your hands, eyes, and voice commands. You can browse through apps by looking at icons, and you can tap and flick your fingers to select items and scroll. You can also use your voice to dictate commands.
The headset's "EyeSight" technology displays the wearer's eyes when you are communicating with someone who is physically in front of you — bringing you back to reality.
Here's more information about how EyeSight works.
This is what you would see if you were talking to someone in person while wearing the headset.
You can use other Apple products simultaneously with the Vision Pro, including MacBooks, Magic Trackpads, and Magic Keyboards.
This is what your experience might look like if you paired your MacBook screen with the Vision Pro headset.
You can use apps in the Vision Pro side-by-side with the screen from your MacBook. You can also adjust the scale of each display screen.
You can also FaceTime others while wearing the headset.
While on FaceTime, the headset will project a "persona" digital image of you that will match your real-time facial and hand movements. Your digital "persona" is created using machine learning from Apple.
The Vision Pro will also offer immersive entertainment options, Apple said Monday. You can watch movies and TV shows, including some in 3D, play video games, and view your photo library and panoramic photos in life-size scale.
Apple is betting you'll want to bring this entertainment experience onto planes.
Apple partnered with Disney on the Vision Pro. Disney CEO Bob Iger said at the product unveiling that Disney+ streaming services will be available on the headset, and teased that other features would "bring our fans closer to the characters they love, and more deeply immersed in our stories."
