WWDC 203 is just around the corner and Apple appears to be making strategic moves for one of the big announcements to be made at the aforementioned developer conference. The company, as a Twitter user discovered, Parker Ortolaniregistered a trademark ‘xroOSat the New Zealand Intellectual Property Office; The fact is that it could be the name of the operating system for your augmented reality glasses.
Registration with the Intellectual Property Office discloses a logo with a font identical to that used by Apple for the rest of its operating systemssuch as iOS, watchOS, tvOS, macOS, or iPadOS; something that confirms that it could be the name of the operating system for those also known as Apple Glass.
This new information is consistent with an earlier report by Mark Gurman of bloomberg, which revealed in late 2022 that Apple plans to name the operating system of its augmented reality glasses xrOS. “xp” means “augmented reality” or augmented reality, Since the glasses will have the functions of both virtual and augmented reality. “OS”, of course, stands for “Operating System”.
Apple also began to consider other names for the Apple Glass operating system, although these were only used for internal development. One of them is “realityOS”, which makes a clear reference to virtual and augmented reality, and “rOS” with almost the same meaning.
It will be xrOS, the operating system for Apple Glass.
In addition to the name, we know some details about xrOS, which will be the operating system for Apple Glass. It will be based on iOS, and will have features for entertainment and work environments. It is also expected that xrOS will have its own App Store for downloading exclusive applications for augmented reality glasses.
We reiterate that Apple Glass will be announced during WWDC 2023, which starts next Monday, June 5. At the conference, we will also see the announcement of iOS 17, iPadOS 17 and new versions for Apple Watch, Apple TV, HomePod, Mac and other operating systems.
As for hardware, in addition to the possible announcement of Apple Glass, the company may also announce a new MacBook Air. Among them is a 15-inch model with an M3 chip.
