Apple Vision Pro is without a doubt one of the most revolutionary products on the market with features that are so different from any other virtual and augmented reality viewer. Apple officially announced them during WWDC 2023, where they showcased many of their features, as well as other important details about design, processors, touch technologies, and more.
However, the company, as usual in product announcements, did not reveal all the details of Apple Vision Pro during its presentation. There are a number of curious and important features and data that we have been able to learn thanks to more accurate information published on the Internet, from those who have had the opportunity to try them, and after the first contact in hypertext from Apple Park, in Cupertino.
These are details about their screens, speakers, battery, or interface; just some of the key features of what Apple calls “spatial computing”.
VisionOS is full of details in the interface
A curious detail of visionOS, Apple’s Vision operating system, is the high level of detail in some interface elements. Most notable? When glasses reproduce windows in augmented reality, they create shading which is reflected on the surface to simulate that we are interacting with this window in reality.
The Apple Vision Pro, on the other hand, includes a surround sound speaker system. This, unlike other smart glasses, not a bone conduction speakerbut otherwise it is normal, like an iPhone or any poppy, so if a person is in a room, he can hear through the glasses what the user is playing.
However, Apple Vision Pro compatible with AirPods Proso you can use your headphones to mute the main speakers and, for example, watch a movie in flight.
About Vision Pro screens
The Vision Pro screens have very interesting details that go beyond their resolution or technology. According to YouTuber Marquez Brownlee, who was able to test them for 30 minutes, assumes panel refresh rate is 120Hz Or at least they seem to run at 120Hz.
The Apple Vision Pro screen, by the way, is opaque: This is an opaque mini LED glass.. This means that the eyes that are displayed in the viewfinder and seen by other people are captured by a series of cameras inside the device. Therefore, a person sees a reproduction of these eyes, and not real ones.
Battery for 2 hours. Enough?
Apple claims the Vision Pro’s battery lasts up to two hours. This is an acceptable duration for the device, but it has some drawbacks. For example, the company claims that the lenses are designed for more immersive movie viewing, but many of them last more than two hours.
It’s also unclear if there will be a replaceable battery. That is, if the user who purchases the Vision Pro can buy another battery to quickly replace it and continue playing content.
Apple Vision Pro has an age limit
As noted 9to5MacApple Vision Pro not to be used by children under 13 years of age. Thus, the company can restrict access to those Apple accounts whose date of birth is less than 13 years old.
What about those who wear glasses?
Apple Vision Pro can be used by people who wear glasses. Of course, the viewfinder will not be located on top of the lenses. Apple worked with Zeiss to develop compatible optics. Thus, a user with vision problems You will need corrective lenses that will be attached to the glasses with magnets.
Apple Vision Pro has a curious privacy feature
A curious feature: For privacy reasons, Apple doesn’t allow apps or websites to access eye input via Optic ID, so they can’t know which area of the app they’re looking at.
