Apple is gearing for its September 12 event where it will be showcasing the new iPhones, including an anniversary special edition dubbed as the iPhone 8 aka iPhone X aka iPhone Edition. But there’s one thing more (pun intended) that is going to be a killer feature on the phone everybody’s waiting to get their hands on: Augmented Reality (AR). If you have been living in a cave for long, you’ll be surprised to see how Augmented Reality is already a hug part of our digital lives. The problem with these two platforms has been lack of affordable partner hardware to actually get users, especially end users, started with Augmented Reality. While ARKit in itself is a huge leap in the field of consumer-focused Augmented Reality, iPhone 8 could be THE go-to platform for the technology.
