Apple is reportedly working on a pair of smart glasses.
The device is said to be an augmented reality (AR) headset, which overlays virtual images on top of what you see in the real world. Think "Pokémon Go," where you see the real world through your phone's camera, but digital Pokémon can also be seen depending on where you are. Instead of a smartphone, though, this would be a pair of glasses you wear directly in front of your eyes, likely paired with and powered by your iPhone.
The first reports of Apple's smart glasses started around 2015, so we've rounded up all of the rumors and news since that time to give you an idea of what to expect.
