In the patent application, Apple explains the use of a dual-axis hinge that allows the arm to move between different stable positions on AR glasses.
The hinge would also enable the smart glasses to apply a clamping force to a wide array of heads and connect components between the arm and the frame.
Apple's patent references on 'eyewear' suggest the development of their own smart glasses, signaling a potential shift from mixed reality headsets to streamlined devices.
Rumors suggest Apple might launch a foldable iPhone in 2026 and AR glasses in 2027, aligning with the company's efforts towards wearable technology alongside competitors like Asus and Meta.
