Apple has filed for a patent (number US 20230264442 A1) for a “dispensing system” for the Vision Pro. It involves equipping the “spatial computer” with lens for vision correction.
The US$3,499 (and above) Vision Pro was previewed at June’s Worldwide Developer Conference. However, it won’t arrive until early 2024 — and then, apparently, only in limited quantities.
As Apple notes in the patent filing, different users of head-mountable devices have different needs for vision correction. A system can be provided to determine the corrective lenses that are most appropriate for a given user. A dispenser can contain a variety of different lenses that provide different types of vision correction.
The dispenser can provide an appropriate one of the lenses, and a user can use the lens with a head-mountable device during a sampling session. During the sampling session, the user can verify that the lens is satisfactory.
