Apple Vision Pro is Missing Something...

I already have a wishlist for the next generation Apple Vision Pro

In order of importance:

- Field of View Increase
- Weight Decrease / Comfort Increase
- Multiple Mac Virtual Displays
-Look at wrist to see time & notifications, battery
- Virtual iPhone Display
- Ability to “pop out” Mac windows & place them around
- Additional Environments
- Multiple Persona Outfits

12:30 For a moment Marques started reviewing the Human Eye 👀
😂🤣

As someone who works professionally with AR/VR/MR (collectively XR) headsets, I’m so glad you are doing these reviews of the Vision Pro (saves me a lot of work 😂).

The first concept you describe, the ability to share virtual objects with someone else who is physically in the same room as you, is called World Anchoring, or more specifically sharing world anchors between the two headsets. Essentially both headsets agree on a common world anchor, and place/update all virtual objects accordingly. This is already a thing in the Quest Pro and Quest 3, as well as other higher end headsets like the HoloLens 2 and Magic Leap 2 (similarly priced around $3500-$5000). I’m surprised (but not really) that Apple isn’t on board with this concept right out of the box.

The next concept, sharing a virtual environment with someone else who’s not co-located with you, just as you said is very straight forward.

As for remembering unique spaces on the headset, HoloLens came up with a janky-but-effective solution for this years ago (like circa 2016 HoloLens 1 timeframe): HoloLens builds up a spatial map of the room/environment, and remembers the name of the wifi network that it was connected to when it built that map. It then saves that map to its internal memory. The next time the headset connects to the same WiFi network, it recognizes the name, and immediately loads up the pre-built spatial map for that area. This saves on processing power by not having to recreate the spatial map every time the headsets boots up. HoloLens can remember multiple WiFi signals/spatial maps (they’re on the order of MB of data, so not much compared to its 64GB of onboard memory.

I’m sure the list could go on. Again, surprised-but-not-surprised that Apple hasn’t figured any of this out yet. 😂

Marques giving Marques a reality check was the highlight of this video. Love the self-reflection!

The idea of accidentally leaving a risqué window somewhere in your work parking lot and stumbling upon it later like at 7:39 is hilarious to me.

The syncing of Passthrough mode is a thing on Quest 3. I played Puzzling Places with my friend and we were both in the same room, having the puzzlepieces float in our room and we could both see them from different angles and even pass each other the pieces. It was such a surreal experience and you'd almost forget its all digital and not real.

Imagine a surgeon able to train and demonstrate incision techniques to a room full of students virtually from any angle in real time. Shared experiences is a huge thing.

Marques talking to himself is hilarious lmao 😂

I’d like it to have a “portal window” feature. Let’s say I’m at work or on vacation and I want to check how my cat is doing, so I have 360° camera at home and I’d like to have a “portal” that looks like a window or a frame where I can stick my head and take a look inside my house. With proper 360° camera it can be done really good and real looking, they can even make their own cameras for that…

Honestly that thing has so much potential in the future, I can’t imagine what will be possible in 10 years

Marques refering to the human eye like it's a tech device lmao

[dom]

It's nice that MKBHD and Marques finally met each other

[iamadit]

12:29 Marques talking about human eyes like a product reviews lol😂😂

[leokimvideo]

Whats this device is missing is a episode of Black Mirror about it

[ryansingerdesign]

Hey Marques, love the tech reviews as always! Just watched your Apple Vision Pro video, and I gotta say, it's got some serious potential for architects and designers. If they tweak the color accuracy and add features like realistic rendering, virtual walkthroughs, and daylight simulation, it could be a game-changer for our industry. Imagine being able to build and walk around your designs while simulating different times of day! That'd be next-level stuff. Keep up the great work, man!

[Griff_TE]

I'll admit the first thing that came to mind when you were talking about having multiple people in the same virtual setting was playing D&D together when you live far apart.

that little smirk when he thinks "To the window, to the wall!" 8:35 !!

12:30 Marques reviewing the human eyes😅

[Abbidy]

The Vision Pro should also add the ability to use your iPhone keyboard, where you see your iPhone screen on the Vision Pro, and know where your fingers are on the iPhone screen, like a grey bubble to indicate where your finger is hovering over on the iPhone screen.

"Apple Vision Pro is Missing Something" Yes people that can afford to waste £3500 on a media player that sticks to their face.

“But didn’t this just literally came out?” MKBHD 😂
