Apple has filed for another U.S. patent (number 20190004604) for an “Apple Glove,” a “finger-mounted device with sensors and haptics.”
Dennis Sellers for Apple World Daily:
It could be used with an augmented reality headset (such as the rumored “Apple Glasses” or a future Mac with a display that could detect and respond to hand gestures.
Per the patent filing, the gloves could be used to control computers and head-mounted display units. They would detect user hand motions and respond, accordingly.
MacDailyNews Take: Hello, Minority Report!
Well, Apple patents all kinds of things that never make it to market. They get burned so much on patents that they now patent every little thing.
I am waiting for the socks.
That already happened! Remember iPod socks? 😂👍🏼
Will they be classic purple!
