The framing of “abandoning” feels off to me, given that they likely repurposed a lot of the sensors, cameras, and computer vision to the Vision Pro. I admire that a lot about Apple, actually: it’s also probable they first developed “audio ray tracing” for the AirPods.

Lmao

Nope. That’s been around for ages.

"audio ray tracing" sounds like sound field technology, and it appears their smart speaker got that first actually (but only used it to reduce echo effects)
