Cracking open the $3,500 Vision Pro shows just how much tech Apple crammed into it
Want to know what's inside the Apple Vision Pro but don't want to break yours open? Understandable.
iFixit published a video that'll give you just that.
Check out their inside look at the headset's hardware.
The Apple Vision Pro launched in the US on Friday, and we've already seen plenty of photos, videos, and reviews of its exterior features.
There's the two headband options you can choose from. The EyeSight feature has a strange visual representation of your eyes through a blue glow. And early reviews say the weight of the headset can become uncomfortable after a while.
But what about the hardware inside that makes the "spatial computing" magic happen?
Understandably, most people aren't racing to break open their new headsets, especially after shelling out $3,500 for them.
Fortunately, a new video from the tech repair experts at iFixit offers an inside look at the cogs and gears inside the headset.
It gives us a closer look at the Vision Pro's display layers, lenticular lenses that make the headset's stunning visuals possible, some cameras and fans, and a whole lot of screws, brackets, and connectors.
Judging by how complex the engineering is, it makes more sense why it costs a small fortune to repair.
Check out iFixit's teardown of the Vision Pro here:

Apple fixes zero-day bug in Apple Vision Pro that 'may have been exploited'
A day after reporters published their first hands-on review of Apple's Vision Pro, the technology giant released its first security patch for the mixed reality headset to fix a vulnerability that "may have been exploited" by hackers in the wild. On Wednesday, Apple released visionOS 1.0.2, the software that runs on the Vision Pro, with a fix for a vulnerability in WebKit, the browser engine that runs Safari and other web apps.

Mini fini: The Mini Clubman passes into British motoring history
The veddy British Mini model that found a loyal following in the UK and elsewhere for more than a half-century has folded its spilt rear “barn doors” for the final time. The ultimate Clubman — assuming there won’t be another sequel, and Mini says there won't — rolled off the production line Monday at Mini Plant Oxford in England. The heritage of the Clubman — and of most Minis — is worth recalling because the brand has spawned such affection among its fans.

Jua raises $16M to build a foundational AI model for the natural world, starting with the weather
Large AI models -- the big troves of language, vision and audio data that power generative artificial intelligence services -- are shaping up to be as significant in the development of AI as operating systems have been in the development of smartphones: they are, in a way, looking like the platforms of the space (an idea others are noodling on, too). Now, a Swiss startup called Jua is using that paradigm with ambitions to build out a new frontier for how AI might be used in the physical world. It's picked up $16 million to build what it is essentially a large "physics" model for the natural world.
