Does anyone know if this was a an acquisition or acquihire? If it’s announced it would seem like Apple wanted the news to be known.. on the other hand nextVR is over 10 years old, and given sports has stopped, they are probably on the ropes.
- T-A 6y agoAccording to https://techcrunch.com/2020/05/14/why-did-apple-buy-nextvr/ https://techcrunch.com/2020/05/14/why-did-apple-buy-nextvr/ "a shell company formed this year that’s believed to be Apple is hiring most of the engineers who develop the product". That doesn't sound like the company simply continuing under new ownership. The acquisition may be more about their video streaming patents than VR.
