Questions about the Apple Vision Pro specifically. Here I am curious about what we can discover from this generation to try to see which of the scenarios above will be easier or harder (impossible?) to achieve.
Two people wearing Vision Pros in the same room watching a show together, will that feel natural or not?
Even if we get perfect, display-free passthrough, how much confidence will we need to have that we’re sharing the same experience to feel comfortable? If my virtual screen is not exactly where your virtual screen is, will that feel uncomfortable? This is related to the spatial interfaces need to allow us to point
No surface anchors in the shared space, Apple probably doesn’t feel confident about this working well. This will be the big breakthrough if it happens, but maybe there’s a reason why we don’t want to start replacing our existing surfaces with digital layers. If your digital objects are anchoring to physical objects, do we run the risk of beginning to feel unsound in our space because we don’t know where our physical surfaces actually begin and end? We still need to know where to sit, and where to lean.
