Apple’s AR/VR headset may require a connection with an iPhone to work

San Francisco:  Apple’s anticipated Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality (AR/VR) headset will need to be wirelessly tethered to an iPhone or another Apple device to unlock full functionality.
According to a report from The Information, Apple is working on a custom chip for the headset.  The headset will be similar to the WiFi-only version of the Apple Watch, which requires an iPhone connection to work.
The iPhone maker may use a fabric exterior to reduce the headset weight, but the company is also using a fan, an unusual move for Apple given its emphasis on fan-less design.
The upcoming Apple VR headset will be similar to the Oculus Quest, and some prototypes being tested include external cameras to enable some AR features.
