Preliminary videos were identified as episodes in a series, however subsequent episodes have not come.
Tonight, Apple will debut some brand-new Immersive Video material for the Vision Pro headset– the very first sports material for the gadget. It does not appear like much after 2 months of no brand-new material.
Beginning at 6 pm PT/9 pm ET, Vision Pro users will have the ability to view a sports movie caught for the platform’s Immersive Video format. The video will be a series of highlights from in 2015’s Major League Soccer (MLS) playoffs, and according to Six Colors, it will run simply 5 minutes. It will be complimentary for all Vision Pro users.
On February 2, Apple launched what seemed the very first episodes of 3 Immersive Video series: Experience Ancient Planetand WildlifeEach debuted along with the Vision Pro’s launch with one episode identified “Episode 1” of “Season 1.”
It’s been nearly 2 months, and none of those series have actually gotten brand-new episodes. The only other piece of Immersive Video material readily available is an Alicia Keyes efficiency video that likewise debuted on February 2. The majority of these videos were just a few minutes long.
That implies that this brief soccer video illustrating sports minutes from 2023 will be the only brand-new piece of Immersive Video material Apple has actually put out considering that the gadget gone for the start of February.
When I evaluated the Vision Pro as a home entertainment gadget, I admired its abilities for seeing 2D movies and videos, however I likewise talked a bit about its 3D video abilities. I stated the very first pieces of initial 3D material from Apple appeared appealing which I eagerly anticipated future episodes. Considered that they were identified much like Apple television+ series in the television app, I presumed they would reach a weekly cadence. Additional episodes have not come.
Especially, Apple didn’t consist of a first-party app for playing 3D videos downloaded from the web with the Vision Pro, though an independent designer filled that space with an app called Reality Player. There are a couple of 3D video-streaming or downloading services in the visionOS App Store, however the choice is extremely anemic compared to what you have access to with other headsets.
Apple hasn’t been calling the Vision Pro a VR headset, deciding rather for the term “spatial computing”– which’s easy to understand since it does a lot more than a lot of VR headsets.
If you’re looking for brand-new examples of the sorts of passive seeing material you can delight in on other headsets, the Vision Pro is still far behind the competitors 2 months in.
