Avi Bar-Zeev, a manager on Apple Inc.’s secret augmented-reality headset team, said on Monday that he left the company.

Bar-Zeev joined the company in 2016 as Apple ramped up its hiring to build an AR headset and served as a senior manager on the team, Bloomberg News reported last year. On his LinkedIn profile, which disclosed his departure, Bar-Zeev said he led "experience prototyping for a new effort" and "developed key prototypes to rapidly prove concepts."
