Exploring the Capabilities of Apple's Vision Pro Operating SystemTesting visionOS is as straightforward as downloading the latest Xcode 15 beta and the visionOS 1.0 simulator. However, Apple has yet to unlock many features.
Experiencing visionOS can only be done on your Mac or iPhone, making it challenging to grasp its full potential for the Vision Pro AR glasses. Nevertheless, as showcased in the video, this operating system boasts Home View and App Windows. You can also catch a glimpse of how 2D iPhone apps will appear.
Websites can be loaded onto the Safari version of visionOS, allowing web developers to preview how their sites will appear and what adjustments are needed.
visionOS features a Control Center with options for brightness modes and a Guest Mode, enabling curious individuals to try out the AR glasses without accessing sensitive data. Spotlight is available for searches, and you can set up a range of 'Environments' to block out the world around you.
This operating system also includes a Travel Mode to ensure stability while wearing the Vision Pro glasses, preventing disturbances around you. Some sensors will be disabled, perhaps for the privacy of other passengers or due to potential interference from nearby individuals.
