I noticed in the latest macOS beta 3 that there was this update: A new algorithm significantly improves PhotogrammetrySession reconstruction quality of low-texture objects not captured with the ObjectCaptureSession front end. It will be downloaded and cached once in the background when the PhotogrammetrySession is used at runtime. If network isn’t available at that time, the old low quality model will be used until the new one can be downloaded. There is no code change needed to get this improved model. (145220451) I am not noticing any difference to before with the reconstructions I tested so I am assuming it's reverting to the old model but in the logs there is no way to see if it succeeds or fails to download that new model. do you have any more information on what was improved here with some examples and what we should be looking for? also how can confirm the download of that new model has not failed?

直播过程中需同时操作 Vision Pro（拍摄）、Mac（推流）、中控台（画面切换），无统一控制入口，调节 3D 模型、校准画质等操作需在多设备间切换，易出错且效率低。 期望 针对直播场景，提供桌面端专属控制软件，支持一站式管理 Vision Pro 的拍摄参数、3D 模型切换、虚实融合效果等，实现多设备协同操作的可视化、便捷化。

Hi, I'm trying to place an object in front of AVPlayer that is docked in VideoDockingRegion, but when launched in immersive space, the video passes through the objects placed in front of. How do I make sure these objects are visible? image for reference

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/arkit/arpointcloud https://developer.apple.com/documentation/arkit/arframe/rawfeaturepoints The point cloud (collection of points/features) main intention is a debug visualization to what the underlying tracking algorithm processes and is not designed for additional algorithms on top of that. But, we are utilizing information contained in the points/features collected by ARKit. Currently, the range of rawfeaturepoints is limited to about 10 meter from the device. We see a great chance if the range is unlock. The global localization will be more robust and accurate. ARPointCloud - Apple ARKit - FindSurface YouTube SIdQRiLj2jY

In my Reality Composer Pro workflow for Vision Pro development, I’m using xcrun realitytool image to pre-compress textures into .ktx format, typically using ASTC block compression. These textures are used for cubemaps and environment assets. I’ve noticed that regardless of the image content—whether it’s a highly detailed photo or a completely black image—once compressed with the same ASTC block size (e.g., ASTC_8x8), the resulting .ktx file size is nearly identical. There appears to be no content-aware logic that adapts the compression ratio to the actual texture complexity. In contrast, Unreal Engine behaves differently: even when all cubemap faces are imported at the same resolution as DDS textures, the engine performs content-aware compression during packaging: Low-complexity images are compressed more aggressively The final packaged file size varies based on content complexity Since Reality Composer Pro requires textures to be pre-compressed as .ktx, there’s no opportunity for runtime optimization or per-image compression adjustment. Just wondering: is there any recommended way to implement content-aware compression for .ktx textures in Reality Composer Pro? Or any best practices to optimize .ktx sizes based on image complexity? Thanks!

I am trying to launch a fully immersive game from Unity on a SwiftUI view. The game is using Metal Rendering with Compositor Services. I added the unity Xcode project into the workspace, added the necessary bridge code. When I click on the button to call ufw?.showUnityWindow(), it does not start and I get the following in the console: AR session failed to start after 5 seconds. Is the app configured to use an immersive space?

切换后两者的亮度、色彩饱和度、对比度等画质参数差距较大，导致画面视觉体验割裂，破坏直播连贯性，影响用户观看沉浸感。 期望 "· 对标常规直播单反相机的画质基准，优化 Vision Pro 的画面亮度、色彩还原能力； · 提供设备端或配套软件的画质自定义调节功能（亮度、对比度、色温等），支持直播前手动校准，确保与单反相机画面风格一致。"

i'd like to have a little bit control over the transparency of the videomaterial. is there any way to prepare a shadergraph unlit shader and use it with the videomaterial.

I posted https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/809481 yesterday about an issue I discovered with pushWindow in visionOS 26.2 RC, but today I discovered a second problem with pushWindow. If window A calls pushWindow to present window B, and the user pins window B to a wall, the following unexpected behaviors are observed: Window B spontaneously disappears. If the user re-launches the (still running) app from the visionOS home view, both window A and window B appear simultaneously. I assume only window B should be visible at this point, since window A pushed window B. If the user closes window B, it's now impossible to present window B again. Calls to pushWindow appear to be ignored. If the user force-quits the app and relaunches it, and pushWindow is called again, window B appears, but window A remains visible. I also noticed this surprising behavior: This broken state of pushWindow behavior now affects all other apps on the system that may call pushWindow in the future, not just the app whose pushed window was pinned above. A workaround is to reboot the device, and then the system will behave as expected until the next time the user pins a pushed window.

I want to select a sub model under a large model in a mixed space, and when I select this sub model, I will add a stroke to it, similar to the effect of selecting a model in Reality Composer Pro ，How to create entity strokes similar to this effect

Hi, I'm trying to use AnchorEntity for horizontal surfaces. It works when the entity is being created, but I'm looking for a way to snap this entity to the nearest surface, after translating it, for example with a DragGesture. What would be the best way to achieve this? Using raycast, creating a new anchor, trackingMode to continuous etc. Do I need to use ARKitSession as I want continuous tracking?

Hi everyone, I'm creating an educational App that allows doing computational design in an immersive environment with the Vision Pro. The App is free and can be found here: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/arcade-topology/id6742103633 The problem I have is that the mesh of voxels I currently create use ModelEntity and I recently read that this is horrible for scalability. I already start to see issues when I try to use thousands of voxels. I also read somewhere that I should then take advantage of GPUs and use metal to that end. I was wondering if someone could point me to a tutorial or article that discusses this. In essence, I need to create a 3D voxel mesh, and those voxels have to update their opacity within an iterative loop. Thanks! —Alejandro

Hi all, I am currently developing a game in Unity for VisionOS and I'd prefer to use the PSVR2 controllers as a source of the raycast for menu selection instead of the default VisionOS gaze for my specific use case. Is there a way to access the IMU of PSVR2 controllers to do this instead of just using eyegaze + controller click for selection? Is there a specific configuration for GCController from within Unity maybe? Thank you!

I like to compose an APN message. (using FCM) what shall I do for it?

Problem Description: I am developing an application that runs in the Shared Space on Apple Vision Pro using Unity. When using the UI ScrollView (Scroll View) component, I found that the Mask / RectMask2D does not function in the Shared Space. Scrolling content is not masked or cropped; it extends beyond the view boundary and is displayed directly. The same UI works correctly across platforms such as Unity Editor, iOS, and macOS, but the issue only occurs in the shared space of Vision Pro. Reproduction steps: Create a ScrollView in Unity. Add a Mask or RectMask2D to the viewport. Deploy the application to Apple Vision Pro and run it in Shared Space mode. Sliding content will not be clipped by the mask, and the masked area is entirely ineffective. Expected behavior: The content of ScrollView should be properly clipped by Mask / RectMask2D and should not render outside the mask boundary. Actual results: In the shared space of Vision Pro, the mask is ineffective, causing scrolling content to extend beyond the designated area and resulting in severe UI distortion. Environmental Information: Device: Apple Vision Pro Mode: Shared Space Unity Version: 6000.0.40f1 visionOS version: visionOS 26.0 Unity PolySpatial Version: 2.0.4 Impact This issue causes Unity UI to fail to display correctly on Vision Pro, preventing ScrollView from properly clipping content, which impacts the UI experience and interaction effects in practical applications. Expected Result: When running a Unity app in the shared space of visionOS, the Mask / RectMask2D of ScrollView functions correctly

I exported some usd assets from IsaacSim but they are not showing up correctly on my Apple Vision Pro. Even though the mesh looks to be the correct color in Finder and I can see the Diffuse Color looks correct, the object is still just gray. It should be green!

I'm trying to develop an app that broadcasts what the user sees (priorly we were using main camera access) but now we'd like to investigate and try with this option. I have set up the BroadcastExtension, I've added the picker, I click on my button, I can see my broadcast extension in the options list in the control center, once I click start, it stops after 1 second more or less. I'm not able to get anything in the console from my Sample Handler (prints or logs or anything). I can see however in the console.app some misleading information (one after the other): [INFO] -[RPRecordingManager getSystemBroadcastExtensionInfo:]_block_invoke:1333 Extension has passthrough license [INFO] -[RPRecordingManager getSystemBroadcastExtensionInfo:]_block_invoke:1336 Extension does not have passthrough license We have the entreprise license, the capability and I did add the capability on the extension target as well.

Hello Community, I’m currently working with the sample code “CapturingDepthUsingTheLiDARCamera” and using it to capture the depth map of an image taken with the iPhone 14 Pro. From this depth map, I generate a point cloud using the intrinsic camera parameters. I've noticed that objects not facing the camera directly appear distorted in the resulting point cloud. For example: An object with surfaces that are perpendicular to each other appears with a sharper angle in the point cloud — around 60° instead of 90°. My question is: Is this due to the general accuracy limitations of the LiDAR sensor? Or could it be related to the sample code? To obtain the depth map, I’m using: AVCapturePhoto.depthData.converting(toDepthDataType: kCVPixelFormatType_DepthFloat32) Thanks in advance for your help!

Environment visionOS 26.1, Xcode 26.1.1 Problem When a WindowGroup opens an ImmersiveSpace and the user closes the window via X button, the async Task in .onDisappear gets cancelled before dismissImmersiveSpace() completes, leaving the ImmersiveSpace active with no way to exit. Steps WindowGroup opens ImmersiveSpace in .onAppear User clicks X to close window .onDisappear fires but async cleanup cancelled ImmersiveSpace remains active, user trapped Expected ImmersiveSpace dismissed when window closes Actual ImmersiveSpace remains active Code .onAppear { Task { await openImmersiveSpace(id: "VideoCallMainCamera") } } .onDisappear { Task { await dismissImmersiveSpace() // Gets cancelled } } What I've Tried Task in .onDisappear ❌ scenePhase monitoring ❌ High priority Task ❌ .restorationBehavior(.disabled) + .defaultLaunchBehavior(.suppressed) ✅ (prevents restoration but doesn't fix immediate cleanup) Question What's the recommended pattern for ensuring ImmersiveSpace cleanup when WindowGroup closes? Is there a way to block window closure until async cleanup completes, or should ImmersiveSpaces automatically dismiss with their parent window?
