Recently it was reported online that Apple cancelled the development of its own augmented reality glasses. However, it was unclear why the corporation would abandon such a potentially promising novelty and today Bloomberg has clarified this issue.

Here's What We Know

In a new issue of the weekly news digest Power On authoritative insider and journalist Bloomberg Mark Gurman explained that Apple did refuse to create one particular model of AR-glasses, but it was a device that needed a connection to a Mac to work.

The company concluded that such a concept wasn't viable and cancelled it, and is instead developing completely standalone AR glasses that won't be dependent on other devices.

Gurman noted that such a novelty is unlikely to appear on sale in the next 3-5 years, so the concept of the device may yet undergo changes.
