What do mean? I thought it was the whole point besides 6dof and real life scale.

Just the first one? Guess they are testing the waters before they do the rest

They want to dream them into reality?

Pretty good movie, I enjoyed it a lot.

I agree it gives Bodies Bodies Bodies vibes, I can also recommend Sissy 2022 and the Blackening 2022 for similar vibes.

At least Google supports motion controllers on day one, and Samsung is making a 1st party controller for thier own headset.

Haha good point

We fully agree on this, they shouldn't be included in the box with Vision headsets but they should definitely be made by Apple and properly maintained and promoted by them just like the Apple Pencil. (Like how many ipadOS features are enhanced by the use of an Apple pencil)

I don't think so, Apple themselves are sitting on a mountain of controller patents including tracked controllers.
December 8, 2024 at 8:52 PM
This argument doesn't hold true for the Apple pencil, it's clear that ipadOS is a touch first OS, making the Apple pencil and promoting heavily didn't change that.

Likewise I think they can do the same for VisionOS and controllers, the important thing is to not ship them in the box.

So true, who's gonna develop full on vr experiences for an even smaller percentage of an already small userbase?

But at least this displays some good faith and bodes well for the cheaper Vision headsets when ever they arrive.

Apple pencil is kinda the exception to the rule, and it benefits from being a first party accessory that's heavily pushed by Apple as a must have item.

I want vr controllers to stay optional but offered as a first party accessory from Apple, otherwise it may not stick.
December 8, 2024 at 7:26 PM
Proper VR controler support and an ecosystem of apps that takes advantage of them was the only thing keeping from Apple's Vision headsets, let's hope this changes that.

With that said, a first party accessory would've been better and would've sent a stronger message about thier intent.

Let's see if a 3rd party solution can make an impact with both devs and users.
