Robert Scoble believes Apple is going to wipe out the VR industry in September... By October Apple will have 250 million AR/VR (Augmented Reality/Virtual Reality) enabled devices in the marketplace... I believe that Apple will have a headset of its own, like Samsung Gear VR or Google Daydream and that the next iPhone will do both AR and VR and not the shitty VR that Daydream or GearVR do, but full blown six degrees of freedom VR... Because only Apple has the ability to convince everyday people to actually get excited by spatial technologies (AR and VR)... Because Apple will take away ALL PR oxygen from all the other VR players by Christmas... Because only Apple has the AI and sensor know how to completely transform the market. Google Tango only sold 100,000 units... Because Apple has the most profits and the best relationships with content producers (Hollywood and the music industry).

In economics, more precisely in contract theory, signalling (or signaling: see American and British English differences) is the idea that one party (termed the agent) credibly conveys some information about itself to another party (the principal). For example, in Michael Spence's job-market signalling model, (potential) employees send a signal about their ability level to the employer by acquiring certain education credentials. The informational value of the Credential comes from the fact that the employer assumes it is positively correlated with having greater ability. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signalling_(economics) (more)

Empiricism is a theory that states that knowledge comes only or primarily from sensory experience.[1] Empiricism emphasizes the role of empirical evidence in the formation of ideas, over the idea of innate ideas or traditions;[2] empiricists may argue however that traditions (or customs) arise due to relations of previous sense experiences.[3] Empiricism in the philosophy of science emphasizes evidence, especially as discovered in experiments. It is a fundamental part of the Scientific Method that all hypotheses and theories must be tested against observations of the natural world rather than resting solely on a priori reasoning, intuition, or revelation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empiricism (more)
