Apple’s Vision Pro is almost here, and the company has revealed how it wants the headset to be the “ultimate entertainment device” with over 150 3D movies available at launch.
There’s a lot of excitement surrounding Apple’s Vision Pro, and the latest release from the Cupertino company reveals that the company will bring a new way to experience entertainment with this expensive headset. In a press release, Apple says that Vision Pro users will be able to watch not only traditional Apple TV+ content and Apple Originals, but also new spatial experiences.
Users will be able to turn any location into the best seat in the house, enjoy personalized concerts and adventures with Apple’s immersive video, interact with real prehistoric creatures in “Meet the Dinosaurs” and land on the lunar surface using the environment. It’s unlike anything users have ever seen before and we can’t wait for them to experience it for themselves. said Greg Joswick, Apple’s senior vice president of marketing.
Disney’s Bob Iger was also enthusiastic about the idea, with the company supporting Apple in the partnership. Iger said: “Apple Vision Pro is a revolutionary platform that will bring our fans closer to the characters and stories they love while immersing them deeper into what Disney has to offer. »
Apple has the hardware to succeed
Although options like Quest 3 have offered virtual cinema and space experiences for years, Apple may be the only company with enough connections to really make this work, given its close partnership with Disney as well as Apple TV. But bolstering this is the impressive hardware under the helmet. It supports Dolby Atmos and lossless audio, while offering a high-resolution micro-OLED display.
The “R1” chip that powers the Vision Pro can also deliver frames every 12 milliseconds, meaning whatever content is being displayed, you’ll be able to see it easily. You may want to attach a battery pack though, as the device only lasts for two and a half hours. You may also want to bring your own keyboard, as the company seems to be struggling with its in-house solution.
