Apple’s smart glasses have only recently had a handful of exciting patents this week, yet one more has just come out, and it’s probably the most interesting we’ve seen so far.
The patent in question alludes to the use of eye-tracking, something already coming to the soon-to-be-released Apple Vision Pro. This is a really smart bit of tech. The abstract for the patent describes the function in more detail: “Light sources emit light beams towards the eye. A portion of the light beams are reflected by the surface of the eye towards the input coupler located in front of the eye.” Your eyes are hit with light from the glasses, and it uses the reflection to match the position of your eye.
