- Apple is behind Google when it comes to VR, but there could be a fix coming at WWDC via The Next Web
- The simple reason why Apple won’t release a VR system anytime soon via Technology — Quartz
GoogleがあればAppleがやってくる、以前はMicrosoftだったんですけどね。時代は変わるものです。VR関連では一歩遅れてる感のあるAppleですが、次のWWDCで何らか発表あるんじゃないか、いや、すぐには動けないよ的な考察がちらほらでています。
Quartzの記事が長いんですがリリースとかしないよ、という論調でした。理由はまあ、いろいろ書いてるんですが一言で言えば「まだ早い」ということですかね。コンシューマーがVR関連のセットアップするのにどんだけ難しいか分かってんのか、的な内容でした。斜め読みなんで最後の段落でどんでん返し書かれてたらごめんなさい。
