What are the new APIs?

At the recent WWDC, Apple introduced several new APIs across different platforms:

1. Enterprise APIs for visionOS: These include six new APIs designed for enterprise use, providing enhanced sensor access and improved platform control. They offer access to the main camera, improved capture and streaming, and advanced machine learning capabilities via the Apple Neural Engine. These APIs are intended for proprietary in-house apps or custom-made apps for businesses distributed through Apple Business Manager. Introducing enterprise APIs for visionOS

2. SwiftUI Updates: New web APIs have been introduced, including a declarative webview component and a Web Page API for programmatically controlling web content. These are designed to integrate seamlessly with SwiftUI. Platforms State of the Union

3. RealityKit 4: This includes APIs for rich materials, virtual lighting, blend shapes, inverse kinematics, and animation timelines, enhancing character animation capabilities and interactions. Platforms State of the Union

4. Speech Analyzer API: A new API for speech-to-text processing, leveraging Swift to manage model assets on the user's device. It supports long-form and distant audio, such as lectures and meetings. Bring advanced speech-to-text to your app with SpeechAnalyzer

5. Vision Framework Enhancements: Vision now includes document recognition and a new lens smudge detection mode, improving image analysis capabilities. Discover machine learning & AI frameworks on Apple platforms

These APIs are part of Apple's ongoing efforts to enhance app development capabilities across its platforms, providing developers with more tools to create innovative and efficient applications.
