Njengoba kushicilelwe namuhla yi-United States Patent neHhovisi loHwebo, i-Apple isanda kugunyaza uhlelo lwe-Augmented Reality (AR) olubizwa "Ukuzulazula okungasuselwa kokubonwayo", echaza uhlelo lwesimo sokuma ngakuthathu sedivayisi esebenzisa amakhamera nezinzwa.
Kuyinto ilungelo lobunikazi lokuqala i-Apple elishicilela ngeRA selokhu yatholwa ekuqaleni kweminyaka yokuqalisa eyayinikezelwe ekuthuthukiseni lobu buchwepheshe.
Uhlelo luhlanganisa ikhamera esemkhunjini, kusetshenziswa i-gyroscope ne-accelerometers njengezinzwa, ku-conconstruct isithombe sesikhundla ngesikhathi sangempela zedivayisi esikhaleni somzimba esiseduze.
Ilungelo lobunikazi lichaza ukuthi amasistimu wokuzulazula angabonakali angakufinyelela kanjani ukuqwashisa kwesimo ngokunembile, ngaphandle kwesidingo se-GPS noma inethiwekhi yeselula. Inkinga enkulu ngalobu buchwepheshe obusha kungaba ukufunwa okuphezulu kwe-CPU nezinye izinsiza ezingakhiqiza kudivayisi, ngenxa yesidingo sokuqhubeka nokuthola into ngesikhathi sangempela.
I-Patent on Reality Reality efakwe yi-Apple ne-US Patent Office.
Ukwenza lokhu, i-Apple isebenzisa into ebizwa ngokuthi Isihlungi sewindi esibuyele emuva (SWF) ", inhloso yawo ukunciphisa umthwalo wekhompyutha ngokusebenzisa amakhodi wokuqagela abonisa ukuma kwento ngayinye maqondana nedivayisi. Ngakho-ke, ekuqaleni uhlelo belungalayisha imininingwane yesimo ngokuya ngendawo yedivayisi esindisa inqwaba yezinsizakusebenza.
Kusesekuseni kakhulu ukuthi i-Apple ibuthuthukise ngokugcwele lobu buchwepheshe, yize kuyiqiniso ukuthi kunemibiko yokuthi inkampani ifaka amandla amakhulu kuyo yonke into ephathelene ne-Augmented Reality. Labo abavela eCupertino bakhombisa intshisekelo enkulu ezinkampanini ezithuthukisa lo mkhakha nokuthi lolu hlobo lobuchwepheshe luzohlanganiswa kanjani nemakethe ekhona.
Silangazelele ukuthuthuka ezinyangeni ezizayo.
