Apple won new Vision Pro design patents that might answer two of my biggest questions about the spatial computer.
The Vision Pro might hit stores in February, at least in the US, where Apple will launch the spatial computer first. As an international buyer, I have little hope of getting my hands on the Vision Pro next year, unless Apple plans to extend sales to Europe soon. The silver lining is that I’ll get all the answers to my burning questions about the Vision Pro before I can buy it.
Thankfully, I don’t have to wait long. Newly uncovered Apple patents contain revealing imagery about the device. One image indicates that Apple will release accessories to protect the enclosure. I’ll definitely need a case while transporting the Vision Pro.
Secondly, a different set of images seems to confirm that the cable of the external battery pack can be removed. We’ve always suspected this. The implication here is that you’ll be able to swap out batteries when using the device for more than two hours.
