As software engineers inside Apple ready visionOS for its public debut ahead of the very first Apple Vision Pro mixed-reality headset launching early next year, work is already underway on the second-generation version of the device.
According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman in his weekly Power On newsletter on Sunday, “At Apple, software and operations employees are preparing the Vision Pro for its debut. The hardware itself has been ready to go for months, letting the Vision Products Group — the team behind the device — move on to next-generation models. The company is considering multiple options, including a lower-end model and a more powerful version.”
“Work on the next Vision Pro remains early, but the company is hoping to make the device lighter and at least slightly smaller. It currently weighs about a pound, and testing has shown that it can feel too heavy for some users — even in short stretches,” he says.
Apple’s new Vision Pro mixed-reality headset blends digital content with the physical world through a fully three-dimensional user interface controlled by a user’s eyes, hands, and voice.
Built on the foundation of macOS, iOS, and iPadOS,visionOS is a new operating system that delivers spatial experiences for the Apple Vision Pro headset. visionOS features a new three-dimensional interface that makes digital content look and feel present in a user’s physical world.
