Oh, wow. OK. Apple really is making a $3.5K VR ski-mask. Dev tools are now out for it
Together, these tools give software developers a way to begin creating and testing augmented-reality apps in preparation for actual hardware availability.
"Apple Vision Pro redefines what’s possible on a computing platform," said Susan Prescott, Apple’s VP of worldwide developer relations, in."Developers can get started building visionOS apps using the powerful frameworks they already know, and take their development even further with new innovative tools and technologies like Reality Composer Pro, to design all-new experiences for their users.
"By taking advantage of the space around the user, spatial computing unlocks new opportunities for our developers, and enables them to imagine new ways to help their users connect, be productive, and enjoy new types of entertainment." To acclimate developers to the unusual challenges of virtual environment interaction, Apple next month plans to open developer labs in Cupertino, London, Munich, Shanghai, Singapore, and Tokyo. This will provide an opportunity to see how apps actually perform on a facetop. The company is also planning to let teams apply to receive developer kits – presumably prototype hardware of some sort.
A decade ago, Google adopted a similar approach, distributing its unloved Google Glass augmented reality headset through Basecamp stores in San Francisco, London, Los Angeles, and New York. But it shuttered those outlets in late 2014, then in 2019 shut down the Google+ social network where the ad biz published the Basecamp decampment announcement.
