Vision Pro Ventures: A Year of Immersive Delights in the Spatial Computing World
Vision Pro Diary: Delightful Experiences in visionOS
The author shares three delightful experiences using Apple Vision Pro, a mixed-reality headset:
-
Exploring New Neighborhoods with Apple Maps
- The author used the Look Around feature in Apple Maps on Vision Pro to explore their new neighborhood before moving. Despite being an iPad app running in compatibility mode, the immersive experience was unique and enjoyable.
-
Watching 3D Movies
- While Immersive Video is still a topic of discussion, the author found watching Disney’s Moana in 3D on Vision Pro to be particularly compelling. The animation and 3D effects made for a special viewing experience.
-
Voice-First Computing with Siri
- Using Siri on Vision Pro brought joy due to the natural interaction through voice commands. Cooking while using Voice-First computing allowed the author to manage recipes, timers, and entertainment hands-free, creating a fun ‘me’ time.
The author acknowledges that their experience is not perfect and has challenges, but these moments highlight what makes Vision Pro feel special.
