Security News > 2023 > June > WWDC 2023: Apple launches Vision Pro and raft of products powered by new chipsets
Apple announced on Monday at WWDC 2023 its much anticipated Vision Pro augmented reality device, which CEO Tim Cook promised would be a revolutionary advance.
During the keynote, Apple also announced iOS 17, macOS 14 Sonoma, iPadOS 17, new Apple Watch features and an array of hardware upgrades.
The company's virtual reveal of the Apple Vision Pro, which will go on sale in early 2024, at $3,499, included a rundown of myriad new technologies driving a highly compact architecture.
Apple said there will be more than 100 arcade titles available on day one of the launch of Vision Pro.
Although Apple is as well known for aesthetics and user experience as it is for computational versatility, the real star of Apple's WWDC event was the invisible-to-user lineup of super-fast Apple Silicon system-on-a-chip platforms advancing under the M2 and now the R1 monikers - the former powering new MacBooks revealed during the event and the latter the computational powerhouse in the Vision Pro.
As undercards to the Vision Pro announcement, Apple revealed many hardware and software products, including a new Mac Pro and a new 15-inch MacBook Air.
