The search engine giant is reportedly working on an AR headset, with the latest info claiming that the device is internally named Project Iris. Though it is expected to launch after Apple unveils its own version, the release may fuel the Metaverse wars, with each major tech firm building its unique ecosystem.

People familiar with the matter have told The Verge that just like upcoming AR headsets from Meta and Apple, Google’s offering uses outward-facing cameras to provide a video feed of the real world and help generate computer graphics. At the earliest, the company expects to ship it in 2024, but do not be disappointed if it is delayed as Apple too has been reported to push back the release of its AR headset by 2023 due to overheating and software issues.
