Apple Head-Mounted Display: iPhone X Maker Exploring Eye-Tracking Technology

For sometime now, Apple is believed to be working on its own head-mounted display. The timeline for the project is unknown, but more and more details about the anticipated device have been surfacing online once in a while. This week, a new patent is detailing how the Cupertino giant is exploring the use of eye-tracking technology in virtual reality and augmented reality headsets. The United States Patent and Trademark Office published Thursday a patent application by Apple. The document, which was originally filed by Apple inventors on Oct. 19, 2017, focuses on an "Eye Tracking System" that the iPhone X maker could use for its head-mounted display.
