To show a permanent dynamic island, you can leverage the RealityKit APIs and object tracking capabilities discussed in various WWDC sessions. Here are some relevant points and sessions that might help you achieve this:

  1. Object Tracking and Anchoring:

    • In the session Explore object tracking for visionOS, it is explained how to create an anchoring component using RealityKit APIs. This can be useful for anchoring your dynamic island to a specific object or location in your scene.
  2. Dynamic Content and Portals:

    • The session Discover RealityKit APIs for iOS, macOS and visionOS discusses dynamic lights and portal enhancements. Portals can be used to create dynamic and immersive experiences, which might be useful for creating a dynamic island that interacts with its surroundings.
  3. User Interface and Interactions:

    • In the session Build a spatial drawing app with RealityKit, there is a discussion on building a spatial user interface. This can help you design the UI elements of your dynamic island and ensure they interact correctly with the user's environment.
  4. Immersive Spaces and Dynamic Scale:

    • The session Dive deep into volumes and immersive spaces covers dynamic scaling in volumetric apps. This can be useful if your dynamic island needs to adjust its size or position based on the user's perspective or interactions.

By combining these techniques, you can create a dynamic island that is permanently anchored and interacts seamlessly with the user's environment. If you need more specific guidance on any of these points, feel free to ask!
