\tApple beefed up its VR capabilities with an acquisition of broadcast specialist NextVR, Bloomberg reported.<\/p>\n

The vendor told Bloomberg only that it had completed the purchase as part of a regular strategy of sometimes buying “smaller technology companies”, but said nothing about its plans for the business. NextVR itself noted it is “heading in a new direction”, with its website already shuttered.<\/p>\n

No price was given for the acquisition.<\/p>\n

NextVR holds major partnerships with the US National Basketball Association and broadcaster Fox Sports, and provided content to VR device makers including Sony, HTC, Lenovo and Oculus, Bloomberg reported.<\/p>\n

The company raised $110.5 million dollars from investors to date, $80 million of which came in a second funding round completed in 2016.<\/p>\n

In 2019, Apple was tipped to be exploring a move into the AR hardware segment [1], with a 2022 entry mooted.<\/p>\n
