The content presented at WWDC regarding visionOS covers a variety of topics, including app design, spatial computing, and new features for the Apple Vision Pro. Here are some highlights:

Designing for visionOS: VisionOS is designed to create immersive experiences with a focus on comfort and usability. Developers are encouraged to find a "key moment" in their apps that is optimized for visionOS, such as the mindfulness app's breathing exercise. The platform supports minimal physical movement, making it suitable for various physical spaces (Design great visionOS apps).
Spatial Media: VisionOS supports compelling spatial photo and video experiences. The platform uses careful camera calibration to create a 3D effect that allows users to relive moments in first person. This involves rendering images stereoscopically to provide an artistically resonant 3D effect (Build compelling spatial photo and video experiences).
HealthKit Integration: VisionOS allows for immersive health experiences, such as reflecting on calendar events in a distraction-free environment. The platform also supports a guest user feature, enabling others to try out Apple Vision Pro while preserving the owner's data and privacy (Get started with HealthKit in visionOS).
Spatial Web Optimization: VisionOS enhances web interactions by highlighting interaction regions when the user's eyes are directed at them, ensuring privacy by keeping gaze data private. The platform also supports spatial media, which requires careful display to avoid disorientation (Optimize for the spatial web).
Enterprise APIs: New APIs for visionOS allow for comprehensive screen capture, including the passthrough camera feed, while maintaining user privacy. This feature is useful for scenarios like remote technical support (Introducing enterprise APIs for visionOS).

These sessions provide a comprehensive overview of the capabilities and design considerations for developing on visionOS, highlighting the potential for creating immersive and interactive experiences.
