Oh man, where do I even start with this whole VisionOS 26 thing? Apple’s doing its usual mysterious dance, teasing us with updates for Vision Pro. It’s like they can never not be in the spotlight, right? Anyway—oh, wait, did you see that image up there? Not entirely sure why it’s here, but hey, it is what it is.
So, this update’s all about bringing PSVR 2 controllers aboard. Like, finally! Imagine trying to steer a ship without a rudder. That’s how it felt without motion controllers. And of course, they had to team up with Sony, because why not make it ultra-intriguing? Logitech’s got their own stylus in the mix too—curveball much? It’s kind of like that friend who always brings the wildest dish to a potluck.
Random thought: Apple’s headset lets people and keyboards pop through virtual walls now. Wild, isn’t it? I mean, who knew gamepads could do a cameo role? Makes me think of a bad sci-fi flick where objects suddenly come to life… but cooler.
Widgets, dude. Widgets are finally making it to these headsets. We’ve had them for ages on phones, but now they’re like tiny magical post-it notes floating in AR space. Mount them on walls if that’s your vibe. I’m guessing it’s kind of like pinning a note to the fridge door.
And avatars. Oh boy, Apple’s getting rid of those ghostly avatars with skin and eyelash updates. Maybe we’ll stop looking like we crawled out of some weird dreamscape. I’ve always had a thing against creepy avatars… personal vendetta or whatever.
Okay, picture this: two people in the same space, actually sharing the same virtual experience. Apple calls it “co-located.” Fancy term, huh? Plus, you can rope in your FaceTime pals too. Mixing real and virtual worlds—just another day, right?
Spatial photos are leveled up too; apparently, they’re doing this stereoscopic depth thing. You lean, and suddenly, you’re peeking around corners in your photos. I have no clue how it works but sounds snazzy.
There’s this “Spatial Browsing” mode coming to Safari. It’s like reading in 3D, and they’re adding immersive backgrounds to websites. In a way, it feels a bit like stepping into a digital Alice in Wonderland. Too much? Maybe. But they’d do it.
Let’s not forget the video formats—they’re going full circle with 180 and 360-degree stuff now. Wide-angle shots from GoPro and pals are fair game. Reckon adventure junkies are gonna eat this up.
Almost forgot—better hand-tracking is on its way too. Maybe I’m just impatient, but 90Hz sounds like a big upgrade. Latency begone, right? Or at least less of it.
Well, that’s the gist. Apple’s hinting at great things, but it’s always the same dance: tease, then surprise. But who’s not a sucker for a good surprise now and then?
