Recent Developments
A new report suggests that in February 2024, Apple Vision Pro could face intense competition from Huawei's rumored mixed-reality headset. The rumored Huawei Vision wearable device, manufactured by the Chinese company, could surpass its Cupertino-based competitor in a variety of metrics. Significantly, reports indicate that its weight is half that of the Vision Pro. The information pertaining to Huawei's concealed headgear was published on Weibo by Li Nan, a former marketing director of Chinese consumer technology company Meizu (via Huawei Central). In the post, he not only disclosed the product's name, Huawei Vision, which the company reportedly registered as a trademark in 2019, but also emphasized that it may be more affordable than the Apple Vision Pro. The mixed-reality headset could measure 350g, which is half the weight of the 600g Apple Vision Pro, according to the post. However, a reduced weight does not necessarily indicate a substandard product. Additionally, Li Nan emphasized that the Chinese manufacturer may employ the identical 4K Sony micro-OLED display utilized by Apple in its headgear. It is noteworthy to mention that the majority of users have regarded the display experience of Apple's wearable as its most notable feature.
Forseven, a British electric vehicle startup, is beginning to emerge from the shadows in February 2024, with production of a variety of luxury EVs well underway. The government of Abu Dhabi owns the investment firm CYVN Holdings, which finances the new company and has an interest in the Chinese EV brand Nio. CYVN acquired a controlling stake in Gordon Murray Technologies, a division of the Gordon Murray Group that is preparing to introduce the T.50 and T.33 supercars, just one year ago. It is anticipated that the Forseven configuration will make use of the iStream platform and production technology, both of which were developed by Gordon Murray Technologies. iStream guarantees platforms that are both lightweight and strong, with the battery integrated into the vehicle's overall structure and body panels made from recycled carbon fiber. It is claimed to reduce CO2 emissions and operating expenses throughout the vehicle's lifecycle, with a conventional family car's body panel components and overall weight reduced by 50% and 20%, respectively. Gordon Murray Design introduced the Motiv quadricycle concept in 2021, which featured an exceptionally lightweight construction and a battery that was twice the size of competing vehicles.
