Apple Unveils Captivating AR Easter Egg Ahead of WWDC Keynote

The technology giant, Apple has reportedly released its annual "AR experience" easter egg in preparation for the highly anticipated WWDC keynote event that is to be held on June 5.

This year, Apple's WWDC 2023 imagery showcases a mesmerizing bubble-inspired theme, beautifully showcasing the vibrant colors of dazzling thin film interference.

As per MacRumors, the AR experience features a gracefully rotating bubble in the shape of the iconic Apple logo, with the date of June 5, 2023 elegantly displayed at its center.

To access this immersive AR experience, users simply need to visit the Apple Events website on their iPhone or iPad and select the "View the AR experience" option. By utilizing the device's camera, users can scan their surroundings and witness the Apple logo-shaped bubble in real time. Alternatively, users can choose the "Object" mode to explore a more defined representation of the logo without needing to navigate their physical environment.

During the event, the iPhone maker will traditionally introduce updates for its operating systems, including iOS, watchOS, iPadOS, macOS, and tvOS, specifically tailored for developers. This year, attendees can expect the unveiling of iOS 17, iPadOS 17, macOS 14, tvOS 17, and watchOS 10. Additionally, there is much anticipation surrounding the announcement of Apple's long-awaited AR/VR headset.

Going by the hearsay, Apple might finally reveal its AR/VR headset at the WWDC 2023 event. According to reports, the headset could come with an external battery pack designed to be worn on the waist and might be powered by Apple's own silicon chipset. The device might offer gesture-based control, eliminating the need for a physical controller.

Furthermore, the AR/VR headset may feature a high-resolution 4K micro-OLED display and incorporate cameras capable of reading facial expressions, detecting body movements, and mapping the surrounding areas.

The highly anticipated WWDC event is scheduled to commence on Monday, June 5, at 10:00 a.m. (PT). Apple enthusiasts can tune in to the event through various platforms, including YouTube, the events webpage, and the Apple TV app.
