One of the main new features of Apple Vision Pro is the ability to capture and playback 3D video. Target? That people can relive moments like never before. On paper, everything looks promising, but… Is it really as incredible as Apple makes it out to be? Fine a group of lucky American journalists have already been able to try this offerand shared their impressions.
Before we continue, it is important to note that 3D video, or “Spatial Video”, They can also be captured on the iPhone 15 Pro.. In fact, the iOS 17.2 beta already allows you to do this. So, the launch of this feature was the reason why Apple invited journalists to try it out.
In general, participants acknowledge that Apple Vision Pro’s 3D video playback is amazing. They had the opportunity to record a chef preparing sushi and then relive it in a virtual environment.
Scott Steney www.vrenture.com/tells us: “I look at a plate of sushi floating in front of me in 3D. The chef prepares the yellowtail and tuna sushi filling and talks to me while she works. It looks bright. It seems real. The amazing thing is that a few minutes ago I recorded this video myself on an iPhone 15 Pro. And now it’s a virtual reality experience that I see in beautiful 3D using Apple Vision Pro.”
The above could also play other videos shot by the Apple team. “Families live in the house, walking on the grass. They hug. Everything is in realistic 3D. I feel like I’m looking into their lives, strange and intimate. But the brightness is undeniable“
For his part, John Gruber of Daring Fireballsaid: “Yesterday I had hands-on experience recording space videos on the iPhone 15 Pro and watching them along with others shot by Apple using the Vision Pro glasses. Again: I am impressed“
Finally, Joanna Stern from Wall Street Magazine, also highlighted the quality of the recording. Of course, he added that the script created by Apple There was great lightingTherefore, the experiment remains to be tested under unfavorable lighting conditions.
“In the demo, I recorded the chef holding a piece of sushi. When I saw this on Apple Vision Pro, sushi and chopsticks They really looked three dimensional.. They were clearly in the foreground, closer to me than the other images. Of course, the lighting during filming was perfect. We’ll have to see how this works in non-ideal conditions.
Apple showed me other space videos. In one, a father was telling a story to his young children in the back seat of a van. It was so realistic and welcoming that it almost scared me. Why am I spying on this random family? Obviously, that’s the big appeal. Spatial video creates an intimacy that 2D photos and videos cannot.“
Joanna Stern.
Without a doubt, this is an experience that raises expectations for the Apple Vision Pro. Of course, these sessions of prostration will be more permanent, since the company’s plan launch your device in the first months of 2023. However, initially only in the USA.
Apple Vision Pro’s 3D video will be so important that the company has commissioned a 3D series exclusively for Apple TV+. By the way, it will be installed in monster universeso let’s not rule out the possibility of seeing Godzilla and King Kong “up close” fighting other creatures.
