Apple unveiled the Vision Pro, a headset for virtual and augmented reality, at its developers conference in Cupertino, California. The new gadget, which is controlled by hand gestures, voice commands and eye movements, is pitched as a leap forward in “spatial computing”. When it hits the market next year it will cost $3,499. Pricey, too, are shares in the technology giant, which hit an all-time high on the day of the announcement, nudging the firm’s market capitalisation close to $3trn.
