How to create an environment for the Vision Pro

To create an environment for the Vision Pro, you can follow several steps and utilize various tools and features provided by Apple. Here are some key points and sessions that can help you get started:

Reality Composer Pro: This tool allows you to design, create, and optimize 3D scenes for Vision Pro. You can add interesting elements like video components to your 3D scene. For more details, you can refer to the session Create custom environments for your immersive apps in visionOS.
Virtual Environment Probe: This feature describes a location in terms of color variation and illumination intensity, which helps in shading physically based rendering materials. It can provide environment lighting for objects in your immersive space. For more information, check out the session Enhance the immersion of media viewing in custom environments.
Web Inspector: If you are developing web content for Vision Pro, you can use the Web Inspector to inspect DOM content, CSS rules, and JavaScript console for debugging. This can be particularly useful for WebXR experiences. You can find more details in the session Optimize for the spatial web.
HealthKit Integration: If your environment involves health-related features, you can integrate HealthKit to create spatial health experiences. This includes entering immersive spaces and reflecting on activities or events. For more details, refer to the session Get started with HealthKit in visionOS.
Enterprise APIs: For enterprise applications, you can enable app compute settings to balance compute power, thermal usage, and battery life. This is useful for high-fidelity, three-dimensional designs. More information can be found in the session Introducing enterprise APIs for visionOS.
Game Development: If you are bringing a game to Vision Pro, you can start by running your game as a compatible app and progressively add features to increase immersion. For more details, check out the session Bring your iOS or iPadOS game to visionOS.
