An Overview to visionOS: An Spatial Computing System by Apple! 

visionOS – Can it be the future of digital transformation? Yes, it can be! Acquire a new world of apps and gaming experiences with visionOS. The operating system will provide a new meaning and impressive visuals to existing mobile apps. However, these applications must be optimized and transformed to work with such an incredible OS in the real world. 

visionOS is Apple’s latest operating system, launched on 5th June 2023 at WWDC Conference. It is the one OS designed for specialized computing, which delivers Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) experiences. Mobile app reimagination and new brand app development will take place for the usage of visionOS. Here comes the visionOS development company to help transform the apps. To know more about this ultimate visionOS concept, let’s discuss it further in demonstrations. 

Get Started!

What is visionOS? 

Apple’s first-ever spatial operating system, visionOS, was launched along with visionPRO at WWDC Annual Conference. This operating system works on similar frameworks and tools but with different new concepts. Be ready to build a new world for apps specially designed for Spatial Computing. The engineering involved in MacOS, iOS, and iPadOS; the foundation of all came together and added a host of new capabilities to support Spatial Computing called visionOS. It is a new way to use the apps we love. 

What is Spatial Computing?  

Spatial Computing means merging the digital world with the physical world. It depicts the content to project in the surrounding for a better understanding of the users. For Example, businesses can picture their new production units to evaluate how they will work through digital 3D projection. It processes and interacts with 3D Data, which includes IoT, augmented reality, virtual reality, digital twins, physical controls, and AI. Improbable has launched a Spatial operating system designed for the next-level simulation of data and technology. 

Features in visionOS 

visionOS has brought impeccable changes in the digital world. The operating system launched with Vision Pro, and its features will be upfront through the device only. Thus, we brought some of its incredible features to highlight in the gadget industry: 

• Vision Pro has a 3D camera to capture Spatial Photos and Videos, which can be viewed through the headset. You can feel the pictures in real life in your physical space. 
• Facetime will get improved with a more enriched, realistic approach. Individuals on the call will reflect in life-size with the Spatial Audio System. The users on the call will be remembered as the ‘Personas.’ Persona is the user’s digital representation, created by Apple’s advanced machine learning (ML) techniques. 
• Infinite canvas for apps at work and home. The headset features a three-dimensional interface, which sets the apps free from boundaries. The users can be more productive with multi-screen functionality in real time.
• Vision Pro provides a magic keyboard and trackpad, enabling users to fetch potential from MAC and create a perfect workplace. Additionally, users can create private and portable 4K displays to embrace the power of work productivity. 
• The visionOS features a headset with two high-resolution displays, transforming the room into a real movie theater. It gives a 100 feet screen feel with a Spatial audio system. Also, Spatial computing will bring users a new kind of gaming experience. 
• visionOS will provide a new brand AppStore, where users can explore new and advanced app capabilities. Additionally, those apps will be for Spatial Computing.

visionOS is the new future of the digital world, which delivers a new world to tech lovers. Enjoy different landscapes around the busy and hassled surrounding. 

visionOS Privacy and Security 

visionOS ensures authenticated privacy and security. The security works with one system called “OpticID.” It uses the uniqueness of Iris, which is distinctive from every individual. Although, the identical twins do not match each other’s identical iris uniqueness. visionOS has a feature that instantly unlocks the vision Pro with the ultimate feature. The OpticID has data that is encrypted and never leaves that divided. Unlike “Face Unlock,” it is only accessible to the secured enclaved process called “Secure Enclave ID.” OpticID works seamlessly with features like ApplePay, AppStore Purchase, and Password Autofill. 

The engineers empowered Vision Pro with next-level privacy in different ways like, where you look will always stay private. The device will make decisions based on where you look. Your eye input will stay separated with an isolated background process. Thus, the apps and websites won’t catch wherever you are looking. When you tap on the screen, it will process just like you do with mouse clicks or taps. visionOS works on world-class privacy and security features. 

What Else About VisionOS? 

• Similar tech stacks to build apps for visionOS – XCode, SwiftUI, AR Kit, and Reality Kit. 
• 3d content for Spatial Apps – Reality Composer Pro built-in to assemble complex scenes with natural objects. 
• Similar frameworks are available in iOS, and iPadOS are included in VisionOS also. 
• All the thousands of apps available for iOS and iPads are also available for visionOS.
• Adobe Lightroom can work in visionOS on a massive screen with easier accessibility and control with eyes and hands.
• visionPRO will have a brand new APPSTORE, where the users can discover and download new apps built for visionOS. These apps are compatible with iPads and iOS.

visionOS with Unity 

Several developers have been trying to build 3D Apps for years, but we have made it now. Apple’s visionOS is working with “Unity.” Unity will help to bring all those 3D apps to vision. Unity-based games and Unity-based apps can be accessed by vision Pro as well. 

The Unity apps are running natively on Apple visionOS. Users can utilize other apps simultaneously with Unity apps. 

Things Developers Need to Know About visionOS 

Apple announced its latest launch of a new AR and VR headset, which is supported by visionOS. The operating system came into the introduction for Spatial Computing. If the developers need to develop something with visionOS, there are multiple things every developer needs to know- 

• The Development Tools and Libraries used in visionOS are familiar to Apple Developers. Existing APIs like Swift UI, Reality Kit, and AR Kit are accessible and will be used in visionOS with their extended version. 
• visionOS is the extended and advanced version of iOS and iPad OS. The developer will use UIKit and SwiftUI to build an excellent user interface. Although, developers use RealityKit to display 3D content, animations, and commit with special visual effects.
• Whether it’s brand new 3D or basic 2D apps, these applications will float in the background while using Vision Pro. Even though the traditional apps will also float in the 3D space with visionOS. 
• visionOS is the new space for the developers to build ultimate apps. The XCode developers used to select iPad, iPhone, and Mac as their destination to build apps. When the apps are rebuilt, the developers have a new space (visionOS) for development with enriched features and resizable windows. 
• In the visionOS headset, there is a new development tool built-in called “Reality Composer Pro,” which is used to preview and prepare 3D Content. 
• The shared-space processing will proceed on-device only. The room visuals and mapping will stay confidential. The personal information and room’s spatial dynamics stay private inside the vision Pro headset only. 

“The SDK is not yet built for app development. According to the current info, the SDK will be launched sometime. Hoping this till the end of the month.”
