I have read in the apple documentation and on forums that in order to access the camera and capture images on VisionPro, both an Entitlement and an Enterprise.license are required. I already have the Entitlement, but I don’t yet have the Enterprise.license. I would like to ask: is the Enterprise.license strictly required to gain camera access for capturing images? How can I obtain this file, and does it require an Enterprise account? Currently, my developer account is a regular Developer 99$, not an Enterprise account.

Hi everyone, We’re developing a Unity project for Apple Vision Pro that connects PSVR2 Sense controllers for advanced interaction and input. We’ve encountered a major limitation: when the controller is not held close to the designated hand (e.g., resting on a table or held by the non designated hand), the Sense controller enters a low-power or reduced-update mode. This results in noticeably reduced tracking update frequency and responsiveness until the controller is held again. For certain use cases, this behavior is undesirable. In our case, it prevents continuous real-time tracking of the controller even when it’s stationary or being tracked externally. Request: Please consider exposing an API flag or developer option in ARKit to disable and optionally delay the low-power mode when the app requires full-rate updates regardless of proximity or hand pose detection.

0 I’m using ARKit + SceneKit (Swift) with ARWorldTrackingConfiguration and detectionImages to place a 3D object (USDZ via SCNScene(named:)) when a reference image is detected. While the image is tracked, the object stays correctly aligned. Goal: When the tracked image is no longer visible, I want the placed node to remain visible and fixed at its last known pose (no drifting) as I move the camera. What works so far: Detect image → add node → track updates When the image disappears → keep showing the node at its last pose Problem: After the image is no longer tracked, the node drifts as I move the device/camera. It looks like it’s still influenced by the (now unreliable) image anchor or accumulating small world-tracking errors. Question: What’s the correct way in ARKit to “freeze” the node at its last known world transform once ARImageAnchor stops tracking, so it doesn’t drift?

i'd like to have a little bit control over the transparency of the videomaterial. is there any way to prepare a shadergraph unlit shader and use it with the videomaterial.

Hardware Specifications Regarding the LiDAR scanner in the iPhone 13/14/15/16/17 Pro series, could you please provide the following technical details for academic verification: Point Cloud Density / Resolution: The effective resolution of the depth map. Sampling Frequency: The sensor's refresh rate. Accuracy Metrics: Official tolerance levels regarding depth accuracy relative to distance (specifically within 0.5m – 2m range). Data Acquisition Methodology For a scientific thesis requiring high data integrity: Does Apple recommend a custom ARKit implementation over third-party applications (e.g., Polycam) to access raw depth data? I need to confirm if third-party apps typically apply smoothing or post-processing that would obscure the sensor's native performance, which must be avoided for my error analysis.

I have already add liscene and entitlement for Passthrough in screen capture, but still get black background instaed of real world. Do you have any idea ? I've been stuck with this question for a long time 😢

Hello, We discovered that a bunch of our old animated models were no longer animated on iOS15 and onwards. After a few days of playing spot the difference between usda files I noticed that all the broken models had an xform called "Scene". Lo and behold, changing the name of that xform fixed the issue on all the models. Even lowercase "scene" makes the animations work again. Is "Scene" a reserved keyword or something? What other keywords do we need to avoid so we can create more robust USDZ files? I'm surprised this issue isn't more widespread considering Blender wraps models in a "Scene" node. At the drive link below you can find two animated cube USDZs. The only difference is the name of one of the xforms. The one with a "Scene" xform is not animated in quicklook (replicated on iPhone 13 iOS v15.2, iPhone 13 iOS v 18.3, and various devices on Browserstack including iPhone 16 iOS v18.3). https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1dch1WaM9O6mbHy29S6NGWgnSHkZkPiBf?usp=sharing

I am developing an app in VisionPro using RealityKit and ARKit. I want my RealityKit entity looks more realistic. So it is important to render its shadow based on light in real world. e.g. When I turn on the light in real world, the shadow of the entity will change. Can this effect be implemented in VisionPro?

I would like to know if there have been any updates that improved the image tracking speed. I submitted feedback a while ago, mentioning that the image tracking rate was only one frame per second on Vision Pro. Thank you very much. FB15688516 and FB16745373is feedback we previously submitted, but we have not received any response yet.

I have been referencing the Object Tracking Tutorial from WWDC 2024 on Vision OS, how Create ML is used to create a reference object, and we can track them in the ARSession. I am looking forward to building this feature on an AR app for iPhone, I am using iPhone 13 Pro Max. I have created couple of reference objects from the Create ML.

Hello, I am developing a visionOS application and am interested in obtaining detailed data of users’ hands through ARKit, including but not limited to Transform and rotation angle. I have reviewed Happy Beem, but it appears to only introduce the method of identifying the user’s specific gestures. Could you please advise on how to obtain the Transform and rotation angle of the user’s hand? Thank you.

When I get close to an Entity in RealityKit wearing VisionPro. The Entity will become transparent so I can distinguish it is rendering by VisionPro instead of an object in reality world. How can I make it not transparent when I get close to the Entity?

Hello When processing an ARPlaneAnchor geometry using its ARPlaneGeometry, the triangleIndices is an array of Int16. It's supposed to be an index buffer, which can only be uint16 or uint32 metal. What am I supposed to do with negative indices ? Negative indices are rare but do appear sometimes. Thank you

Hello, We are developing an AR app that requires the lidar meshes. Unfortunately the ARMeshAnchors that allows us to retrieve the mesh data are very unreliable. It happens very often that the ARSession removes all ARMeshAnchors and takes anywhere from 5s to 30s to reappear. The planes detection (ARPlaneAnchors) are still working fine and the camera tracking is also working normally. I tried a basic ARKit sample app, and got the same behaviour as our own app. Is this a known issue ? Anything we can do to mitigate the issue ? Thank you

I am trying the image tracking of ARKit on VisionPro, but there seems to be some problem when adding reference image. Here is my code: let images = ReferenceImage.loadReferenceImages(inGroupNamed: "photos") print("Images: \(images)") try await appState!.arkitSession.run([imageTracking]) It can successfully print those images, however sometimes it will print the error message like this: ARImageTrackingRemoteService: Adding reference image <ARReferenceImage: 0x3032399e0 name="chair" physicalSize=(0.070, 0.093)> failed. When this error message is printed, the corresponding image can not be tracked. I do not understand why this will happen, because sometimes the image can be successfully added, but other time not, even for the same image. It makes my app not stable. Besides, there are some other error messages, and I do not know whether it is related: ARPredictorRemoteService <0x1042154a0>: Query queue is not running. Execution of the command buffer was aborted due to an error during execution. Insufficient Permission (to submit GPU work from background) (00000006:kIOGPUCommandBufferCallbackErrorBackgroundExecutionNotPermitted)

I am developing an app which needs high-quality immersion on VisionOS. I found that when some messages pop up, the virtual object will get transparent so the immersion is broken. How could I disable such pop-up messages when the ImmersiveSpace is open .

I have been using ARKit to get hand tracking data on a continuous loop by implementing the AnchorUpdateSequence. I want to try out the .predicted hand tracking, but it seems as though using ARKit session and HandTrackingProvider do not allow me to enable this feature?

Hi! I attempted running a sample project for detecting human pose in 3D with vision framework, that can be found here: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/vision/detecting-human-body-poses-in-3d-with-vision. It works perfectly on my Macbook Pro M1, but fails on Apple Vision Pro. After selecting a photo, an endless loading screen is displayed and the following message is produced in the console: Failed to initialize 2D Detection Algorithm. Failed to initialize 2D Pose Estimation Algorithm. Failed to initialize algorithm modules Network path is nil: (null) Failed to initialize 2D Detection Algorithm. Failed to initialize 2D Pose Estimation Algorithm. Failed to initialize algorithm modules Unable to perform the request: Error Domain=com.apple.Vision Code=9 "Async status object reported as failed but without an error" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Async status object reported as failed but without an error}. de-activating session 70138 after timeout Is human pose detection expected to work on VisionOS? Is there any special configuration required, that I might be missing?
