"Pokemon Go through Apple Glasses"


#PokemonGO: So at Apple's WWDC2017 a couple days ago, they announced that Pokemon Go was going to utilize iOS 11's new ARKit library to make Pokemon AR placement even more realistic (e.g. Standing Pokemon don't float, Pokeballs bounce off of actual ground, lighting and shaders reflect real world).However, as cool as AR is on phones and tablets, there is buzz that this ARKit library is mainly setting the stage for the rumored Apple Glasses to be announced this Fall. Apple has been going heavy on AR lately and tapping Pokemon Go along the way (e.g. Apple Watch app, recent nod in WWDC2017 for ARKit).Putting this all together, players could potentially be seeing Pokemon right there in front of them through their Apple Glasses, and catch it with a wrist flick of their mobile device. You could see gyms towering in the distance and don't get me started about the potential for PVP battle. Imagine your mobile phone as a battle menu and the entire battle happening in front of your eyes.There are of course MANY hurdles. Battery always being a huge one. But what are your thoughts or dreams? Niantic's usage of the ARKit makes a port to the rumored Apple Glasses seem like a possibility down the road. Also, sorry for the neglect of Android users in this post. I love Android too.tl;dr Niantic is using Apple's ARKit, ARKit is predicted to have been built for the rumored Apple Glasses, potential for Pokemon Go on Apple Glasses possible.Any thoughts or dreams are welcome! via /r/TheSilphRoad http://ift.tt/2rQyWqC
