The latest announcements for visionOS were highlighted in the Platforms State of the Union session. Here are some key updates:
-
Scene Understanding Capabilities: VisionOS has significantly extended the fidelity of its scene understanding capabilities. Planes can now be detected in all orientations, allowing for anchoring objects on various surfaces in the surroundings. Additionally, room anchors have been introduced, which consider the user's surroundings on a per-room basis and can even detect a user's movement across rooms.
-
Object Tracking API: A new object tracking API allows developers to attach content to individual objects found around the user. This enables new dimensions of interactivity, such as attaching virtual content like instructions to physical objects.
-
Enhanced Spatial Computing: VisionOS is built on the foundation of macOS, iOS, and iPadOS, utilizing common tools and frameworks like SwiftUI, RealityKit, and ARKit. This makes it easier for developers to create spatial computing apps.
-
Guest User Feature: VisionOS now includes a guest user feature, allowing others to set up and try out Apple Vision Pro while preserving the owner's data and privacy.
-
Enterprise APIs: New enterprise APIs for VisionOS have been introduced to support a wide range of enterprise environments, enhancing collaboration, communication, and guided work activities.
