Creating Breakthrough Experiences: Apple Vision Pro SDK Unleashes the Power of Spatial Computing

2023-06-22 15:57:42
Apple today announced a new visionOS Software Development Kit (SDK) for Apple Vision Pro, enabling developers to create breakthrough app experiences for Apple Vision Pro with new software tools and technologies. Apple Vision Pro is equipped with visionOS, the world’s first spatial operating system, allowing users to interact with digital content in a physical space with eyes, hands and voice. Starting today, Apple’s global developer community will be able to create a whole new category of spatial computing apps that take full advantage of the infinite canvas of Apple Vision Pro and seamlessly integrate digital content with the physical world for extraordinary new experiences. Through the visionOS SDK, developers can use the powerful and unique features of Apple Vision Pro and visionOS to design new app experiences in various categories, including productivity, design, games and more. As announced during WWDC 2023, Apple will open developer labs in Cupertino, London, Munich, Shanghai, Singapore, and Tokyo starting in July, allowing developers to test apps on Apple Vision Pro hardware and receive Support from Apple engineers. Development teams can also request a development kit that helps them quickly build, iterate and test apps on Apple Vision Pro. Developers can use the foundational frameworks they already know from other Apple platforms, such as Xcode, SwiftUI, RealityKit, ARKit and TestFlight, to create new experiences that take advantage of the breakthrough capabilities of Apple Vision Pro. These tools allow developers to create new types of apps that bring a variety of immersive feelings, including “windows” that provide depth and 3D content; “stereoscopic” that creates experiences that can be viewed from any angle; The “space” in which the viewer is fully immersed in a boundless 3D content environment. To help developers optimize 3D content for visionOS apps and games, Xcode provides a new tool called Reality Composer Pro that allows developers to preview and prepare 3D models, animations, images and sounds for rendering in Apple Vision Pro. beautifully presented. Developers can also interact with their apps in the new visionOS simulator to explore and test various room layouts and lighting conditions. Each developer framework includes built-in support for Apple’s innovative accessibility features to ensure everyone can use spatial computing and visionOS apps. Beginning next month, developers who use Unity’s powerful authoring tools to build 3D apps and games can port their Unity apps to Apple Vision Pro.
