Apple's $3,499 Vision Pro headset has failed to gain widespread adoption despite advanced technology, with consumers preferring discreet wearables like smartwatches.

Когда надо удалить фон с фото? Допустим сняли идеальный кадр на фоне красивого здания, а через час замечаешь, что на заднем плане чужая собака делает свои дела прямо под окном. Или выложили милое фото с парнем, а в комментах пишут: "а кто эти два бомжа на скамейке позади вас?". Фотошоп тут не спасение - там нужно руки, слой-маски и полчаса нервов.

Система автоматизированного проектирования и контроля разработки: как мы «докрутили» СППР
