Apple buys AR lens startup

Reuters:

Apple Inc has acquired a startup focused on making lenses for augmented reality glasses, the company confirmed on Wednesday, a signal Apple has ambitions to make a wearable device that would superimpose digital information on the real world.

And:

Apple confirmed it acquired Longmont, Colorado-based Akonia Holographics.

Here’s a link to the Akonia Holographics web site, in case you’d like to get a better sense of them. I’d imagine the web site will eventually be taken down as they migrate to Apple.
