Here's why you should be excited about Apple's push towards AR

Victor, 20 August 2017

With a sixth developer beta already out and an expected release in September this year, iOS 11 is practically here already. Besides the new UI, smarter Siri assistant and the myriad of other end-user improvements this major update to Apple's mobile OS marks a clear push towards more open and convenient developer APIs.
